War and Peace

Monthly Commentaries by Shlomo Ben-Ami

Shlomo Ben-Ami, a former Israeli foreign minister who now serves as the vice-president of the Toledo International Centre for Peace, is the author of Scars of War, Wounds of Peace: The Israeli-Arab Tragedy.

Is an Islamic civil war underway? Can a Pax Americana still take hold in the Middle East? Is "national security" an outdated concept? Is the "war on terror" winnable?

Shlomo Ben-Ami, a renowned historian of fascism, as well as a seasoned diplomat, is the former Israeli foreign minister who came closest to devising a viable peace agreement between Israel and Palestine. His monthly commentaries on War and Peace will regularly include debates and exchanges of ideas with Palestinian and other Arab leaders. At the same time, Shlomo Ben-Ami will bring his commitment to historical truth and appreciation of the legitimate claims of the “other” to bear not only on the Middle East, but also on the myriad wars, and causes of war, that trouble our age.
