Abstract
With the Middle East peace process at an impasse, Yasser Arafat’s political authority is eroding. Unable through his own endeavours to advance the Oslo peace process, the Israeli release of Hamas leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin in October 1997 has further undermined Arafat’s position. Arafat has reacted to his predicament by adopting increasingly authoritarian ways and making his Executive Authority even less responsive to the Palestinian Legislative Council.
