The Twilight of the Two-State Solution in Israel-Palestine
This article analyzes the international consensus on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that there should be a two state solution and finds it unworkable on several counts. The conflict has no territorial solution: high population density makes partition impossible without leaving unwanted pockets of one people in the territory of the other; it is not possible for any Israeli government to dismantle settlements in the West Bank without causing a ci…
Nationalism, Ethnicity and Self‐determination
An ongoing paradigm shift is giving birth to a more multidimensional understanding of the relationship between nationalism, sovereignty, self‐determination and democratic governance. A common element among the various versions of the new paradigm is the dispersal of democratic governance across multiple and overlapping jurisdictions. Governmental processes are no longer seen as discrete, centralised and homogenous (as in the old nation‐state mode…
The Persistence of the Palestinian Question
National–Cultural Autonomy as an Alternative to Minority Territorial Nationalism
The aim of this article is to show the advantage of the national–cultural autonomy (NCA) model in dealing with national autonomy demands in societies affected by deep ethnic conflicts and where territorial separation is impossible or plainly inconvenient or where the territorial dispersion or dilution of national/ethnic communities does not allow the implementation of territorial autonomy or national separation. These cases are not few and the re…

Wada'an to a Jewish Palestinian
Wada’an to a Jewish Palestinian Ephraim Nimni (bio) Edward Wadie Said died on 25 September 2003, leaving behind a powerful legacy in literature, politics, music, cultural studies and the Israeli Palestinian conflict.1 Both, the genesis and powerful legacy of his work can be found in the perennial insider-outsider tension that characterised much of his existential and intellectual experience. This is manifested in his diasporic demeanour and quixo…

The Question of Nationalities and Social Democracy
Until now, The Question of Nationalities and Social Democracy was the only remaining work of classical Marxism not fully translated into English. First published in German in 1907, this seminal text has been cited in countless discussions at nationalism, from the writings of Lenin to Benedict Anderson's Imagined Communities.The issues Bauer addressed almost a century ago still challenge current debates on diversity and minority rights. In this re…
Nationalist multiculturalism in late imperial Austria as a critique of contemporary liberalism
This article evaluates Bauer's theory of the nation and the debate on national‐cultural autonomy in late imperial Austria. It finds important similarities with contemporary liberal debates on multiculturalism and the rights of ethnic and national minorities. It argues that the debate on national‐cultural autonomy went in some respects beyond the contemporary debate on multiculturalism. National‐cultural autonomy rejects the idea of the nation‐sta…
Marxism and Nationalism
Marx, Engels and the National Question
national question reveal great differences in interpretation from one historical situation to another. In this paper I propose that there is an underlying paradigm which makes their seemingly divergent analyses part of a coherent whole. The main parameters of this paradigm are derived from three conceptions widely considered central to historical materialism: the theory of evolution; the theory of economic determination of the forces of productio…
Marxism and Nationalism
The conceptualisation of national phenomena presents a series of difficulties and contradictions for modern social theories. Since the emergence of both Marxism and sociology, the concern of theory has been to explain social phenomena by constantly refining a universal logic. Slowly but surely, the apparent mystery of specificities and localisms was to be unravelled by the penetrating force of logically refined and empirically tested theories. Th…
