`Although all the contributors to this book are to varying degrees critical of Israel's and Hamas' conduct before and during the war, that criticism is incidental to the main purpose of the book which is to clarity an aspect of the conflict that underlies disputing accounts of it and its history - the complex relations between morality, law and politics...' Raimond Gaita<BR><BR>In Gaza: Morality, Law and Politics, seven leading academics and intellectuals provide a fresh analysis on what is arguably the most critical conflict of our contemporary political world. Gerry Simpson, Geoffrey, Brahm Levey, Mark Baker, Ghassan Hage, Hilary Charlesworth and Anthony Billingsley were recently invited to participate in a public lecture series at the Australian Catholic University, Melbourne. Bestselling author and philosopher Raimond Gaita organised that series and has edited and introduced this thoughtful collection.
