* Ilan Pappé - Collected Works on Palestine and Israel (29 books)

ILAN PAPPÉ (b. 1954) is an Israeli historian, political scientist, and public intellectual known for his revisionist approach to the history of Israel and Palestine.  As a leading figure among Israel’s "New Historians" who emerged in the 1980s and 1990s, he helped pioneer a fresh approach to Israeli historiography, using newly declassified archives to challenge long-standing national myths about the 1948 Arab-Israeli War and the founding of the State of Israel.  His scholarship has consistently sought to uncover the silences and erasures within dominant narratives, recasting the origins of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict in light of the experiences and agency of Palestinians themselves.

Pappé’s most influential work is THE ETHNIC CLEANSING OF PALESTINE (2006), in which he argues that the mass displacement of approximately 750,000 Palestinians in 1948 was not an incidental outcome of war but a systematic campaign of expulsion and ethnic cleansing carried out by Zionist leaders.  The book challenges long-standing Israeli national myths, presenting 1948 not as a war of independence but as a foundational act of dispossession.  Another major contribution is A HISTORY OF MODERN PALESTINE (2003, 3rd ed. 2022), a comprehensive account tracing the political, social, and cultural transformations of the region from the late Ottoman period to the present.  Pappé seeks to integrate Palestinian and Israeli histories into a single narrative, emphasizing the interconnectedness of the two peoples’ experiences.

In THE FORGOTTEN PALESTINIANS (2011), Pappé focuses on the Palestinians who remained within the borders of Israel after 1948, examining their legal, social, and political status as a minority in a Jewish state, highlighting issues of citizenship, land ownership, and systemic inequality.  Later works, such as THE IDEA OF ISRAEL: A HISTORY OF POWER AND KNOWLEDGE (2014) and TEN MYTHS ABOUT ISRAEL (2017), continue this critical engagement by exploring how historiography, ideology, and political discourse have shaped Israeli identity and global perceptions of the conflict.  Pappé has also engaged with more contemporary political analysis in works like GAZA IN CRISIS (2010), co-authored with Noam Chomsky, which is structured as a dialogue and focuses on Gaza’s humanitarian and political situation, particularly in the context of Israeli military operations and the blockade.

Beyond his written scholarship, Pappé is a prominent advocate for a single democratic state for Israelis and Palestinians and supports the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, including an academic boycott of Israel.  His outspoken criticism of Israeli government policies and support for Palestinian rights led to significant controversy and personal backlash in Israel, ultimately prompting him to leave the University of Haifa in 2007.  Through his research and activism, Pappé challenges readers to question dominant historical narratives, to consider the moral and political dimensions of historical writing, and to understand history as an active site of struggle over memory, identity, and justice.
