520    "Justice in the question of Palestine is often framed as a
       question of law. Yet none of the Israel-Palestinian 
       conflict's most vexing challenges have been resolved by 
       judicial intervention. Occupation law has failed to stem 
       Israel's settlement enterprise. Laws of war have permitted
       killing and destruction during Israel's military 
       offensives in the Gaza Strip. The Oslo Accord's two-state 
       solution is now dead letter. Justice for Some offers a new
       approach to understanding the Palestinian struggle for 
       freedom, told through the power and control of 
       international law. Focusing on key junctures--from the 
       Balfour Declaration in 1917 to present-day wars in Gaza--
       Noura Erakat shows how the strategic deployment of law has
       shaped current conditions. Over the past century, the law 
       has done more to advance Israel's interests than the 
       Palestinians'. But, Erakat argues, this outcome was never 
       inevitable. Law is politics, and its meaning and 
       application depend on the political intervention of states
       and people alike. Within the law, change is possible. 
       International law can serve the cause of freedom when it 
       is mobilized in support of a political movement. 
       Presenting the promise and risk of international law, 
       Justice for Some calls for renewed action and attention to
       the Question of Palestine"--Provided by publisher.
