FINLAND & PALESTINE Proceedings of a Joint Workshop

Affairs, is an independent Palestinian non-profit institution,
not affiliated with any government, political party or organization.
PASSIA seeks to present the Question of Palestine in its national,
regional and international contexts through academic research,
dialogue and publication. PASSIA endeavors that research
undertaken under its auspices be specialized and scientific and
that its symposia and workshops, whether international or intra­
Palestinian, be open, self-critical and conducted in a spirit of
cooperation.

necessarily represent the views of the Foundation of the Finish
Institute of the Middle East, nor those the Finnish Representative
Office in Ramallah or those of PASSIA. The publication of this book
was kindly supported by the Representative Office of Finland,
