Sobre Palestina / On Palestine – hinnat ja saatavuus

Una valiosa e in dita aportaci n de Hannah Arendt al conflicto entre Israel y Palestina. En 1944, la corriente sionista europea estaba a punto de lograr el objetivo de fundar su propio Estado en territorio palestino. Fueron muchos los intelectuales que participaron de este planteamiento, entre ellos Hannah Arendt, quien elabor un breve estudio acerca de la viabilidad del proyecto, posicion ndose a favor de la creaci n del Estado de Israel, aunque con ciertas reticencias: este asentamiento no deb a realizarse sin establecer las condiciones con claridad, debido al peligro de desembocar en una convivencia truncada y hostil. Advirti , adem s, de que Estados Unidos podr a aprovecharse de la situaci n para apropiarse del petr leo de la regi n. Sobre Palestina alberga una funesta premonici n que hab a permanecido in dita hasta hoy. Tanto en el pr logo como en el ep logo, el fil sofo Thomas Meyer da cuenta del contexto del manuscrito de la pensadora jud a y del porqu de que nunca se publicara, am n de las presiones recibidas por parte de los comit s de apoyo sionista. En este volumen tambi n se incorpora el memor ndum titulado "El problema de los refugiados palestinos", redactado por varios autores en 1958 -entre los que figura, a disgusto de ella, Hannah Arendt- y publicado por el Institute for Mediterranean Affairs, un estudio en forma de esclarecedor cat logo de cuestiones acerca del conflicto palestino, redactado diez a os despu s de que el Estado de Israel se hiciera realidad, del modo en que Arendt hab a temido y pronosticado. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A valuable and unpublished contribution by Hannah Arendt to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In 1944, the European Zionist current was about to achieve the objective of founding its own State in Palestinian territory. Many intellectuals participated in its planning, among them Hannah Arendt, who elaborated a brief study about the viability of the project, leaning in favor of creating the State of Israel, though with certain reservations: this settlement should not be built without establishing clear conditions, due to the dangers that it could disembogue in a curtailed and hostile interaction. She also warned that the United States might try to take advantage of the situation to get hold of the region's oil. On Palestine harbors a fateful premonition that had been kept unpublished till today. In both the prologue and the epilogue, philosopher Thomas Meyer gives account of the context of the manuscript by this Jewish thinker and why it was never published, aside from the pressure by Zionist support committees. This volume also includes the memorandum entitled "The Problem of Palestinian Refugees," written by several authors in 1958--featuring, to her disgust, Hannah Arendt--and published by the Institute for Mediterranean Affairs, a study in the form of an enlightening catalogue of issues regarding the Palestinian conflict, written ten years after the State of Israel became a reality, in the way Arendt had feared and predicted.
