"Making Peace details the debates, doubts, reversals, and accomplishments that crystallized at the Madrid Peace Conference in October 1991. In the months leading up to this historic event, Eytan Bentsur, today Director-General of the Israeli Foreign Ministry, worked closely with his counterparts from other countries to find a formula that might bridge the bitter and seemingly intractable rivalry between Israelis and Arabs.
This formula became known as the two-track approach and is an important source of the incredible progress made toward regional peace and security in recent times. This book elucidates the origins, rationale, and impact of the two-track approach. Arguing persuasively that the Middle East peace revolution was triggered by the Madrid gathering, Bentsur sheds new light on the leading personalities and ideas that made the conference a success and a foundation for future progress.
It is a gripping, behind-the-scenes account of diplomatic effort in the cause of peace in a war-torn part of the globe."--BOOK JACKET.
