Democratic resistance: Hamas, Fatah, and the Palestinian elections / Usher, Graham   Journal Article
Usher, Graham Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2006.
Summary/Abstract This article examines the lead-up to the recent Palestinian legislative elections, looking especially at the Fatah's long-brewing internal crisis, born of Fatah's inability to reconcile its role as a national liberation movement with that as ruling party of the Palestinian Authority. The author assesses the impact of the new reality presented by Hamas's victory on Hamas, Fatah, and the international community, specifically addressing the post-election strategy put forward by certain Fatah elements, and backed by the United States, to undermine Hamas's victory by shifting power away from the Hamas-dominated legislative branch to the executive under the presidency of Mahmud Abbas.

Letter from the UN: after the US veto on settlements / Usher, Graham   Journal Article
Usher, Graham Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract Obama's first veto in defense of Israel at the UN was of a Security Council draft resolution that condemned Israeli settlements in language reflecting the administration's own stated policy. The draft, supported by all other UNSC members, forced the U.S. to choose between undermining its credibility internationally and alienating constituencies at home. For the Palestinians, insistence on tabling the draft in defiance of Washington was seen by some as a first step in an "alternative peace strategy" involving a turn away from the Oslo framework in favor of the UN. After reviewing the context of the resolution, the author analyzes the stakes for the various players, the repercussions of the veto, and the diplomatic prospects in its wake.

Letter from the UN: the Palestinian bid for membership / Usher, Graham   Journal Article
Usher, Graham Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract The Palestinian Authority's application to become a full member state at the United Nations represents the latest stage in its "alternative peace strategy" born of the collapse of the U.S.-sponsored Oslo peace process. But-argues the author-the new strategy remains overly dependent on diplomacy and uncertain Palestinian allies like the European Union. If it is to achieve a balance of power for future negotiations more favorable to the Palestinians, however, it will need to be anchored in a greater national consensus at home and in the diaspora, and allied more closely to the emerging democratic forces in the region.
