With the brutal outbreak of violence in Gaza and Israel, and the awful toll being felt by Israeli and Palestinian citizens, I put together a thread on some of the academic research that helps explain the dynamics of the conflict and its effects.

Thanks for doing this! As an Americanist, I feel woefully inexpert in this realm.

This is so useful.

Daniel Bar-Tal’s describes psychological foundations of intractable conflicts which are intense conflicts that are total in nature, perceived as zero-sum, central to culture and politics.  citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/document?rep...
