Origin, Nature, and Progression of the Conflict -- The United Nations Security Council Resolutions on the Question of Palestine: A Normative Framework for a Just Resolution -- Constructivism and the Role of International Norms and Identity in Conflict Resolution -- Contemporary Realities and the Imperative of a Non-Violent Intifada -- The Islamic Doctrines of War and Peace -- Putting Jihad into Context: Intent, Purpose,and Objectives.

Halim Rane's Reconstructing Jihad breaks new ground on some of the most crucial issues of thetwenty-first century: the role of religion ininternational affairs, the use of armed force, and theachievability of a just peace. In the context of international norms and identity factors Rane presents a contemporary methodology for the reconstruction of jihad from a doctrine based on the use of armed force to one that gives'Islamic' legitimacy to non-violent resistance. Using the Israel-Palestine conflict as a case study, this book explores the impact of competing international norms in the process of conflict resolution. Combininga constructivist perspective of international relations with contextualist and objective-oriented (maqasid) approaches of Islamic Studies, the author examines the conditions under which a just resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict is possible. Based on extensive research and statistics, Rane demonstrates why Palestinian nonviolence would be more conducive to their liberation struggle than violent resistance and how this is a legitimate and authenticform of jihad consistent with the higher objectives of Islam - a necessary realization for Islamic militants if the conflict is to find a just resolution. With the continued failure of the conventional 'peace process' and the increasing intractability of the conflict, this book makes a timely contribution to resolving one of the world's most enduring dilemmas.
