Abstract

ABSTRACT This article offers a game theory-based theoretical framework for explaining the Israel–Hamas indirect ceasefire negotiations in the decade attending the Islamist organisation’s takeover of the Gaza Strip in 2007. It shows that Hamas’s relentless commitment to Israel’s destruction notwithstanding, whenever the two adversaries reached ad hoc agreements, both collaborated (however, indirectly) in maintaining a state of calm. As such, the proposed analytical framework provides a useful tool for conflict management analysis in terms of actions, duration and modes of settlement.
