From invisibility to game changers – Palestinian citizens of Israel

Abstract: This study explores the possibilities of reconciliation in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through the perspective of the Palestinian citizens of Israel, also known as the Israeli-Arabs. The theoretical and empirical frameworks aim to provide further research to the field of reconciliation through peaceful containment of narratives between deeply divided groups in intractable conflict. Given the political stalemate in the region, I argue that containment of narratives between Jewish and Arab compatriots is the most feasible mechanism to realize appropriate reconciliation processes between the nations.
