British Policy towards the Refugee Problem

Abstract

If one could venture to describe British policy towards the Arab— Israeli conflict in the post-1948 era as affected by what could be called the ‘Palestine Syndrome’, the best manifestation for this behaviour would be found in the British attitude towards the refugees and their political future. By the ‘Syndrome’ is meant the effect the Mandatory years had on the British readiness to be involved directly in the Arab—Jewish conflict in Palestine, which had cost so many British lives and so much effort in the Mandatory period.KeywordsMiddle EastArab CountryArab WorldGaza StripEconomic SolutionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
