This document provides a summary and analysis of Netanyahu's policy of "economic peace" towards Palestine. It begins with an introduction to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Netanyahu's emphasis on economic peace.
Part 1 discusses the theoretical framework of economic peace theory, noting its origins in liberal peace theory. Economic peace theory asserts that economic interdependence leads to peace, but this may not apply to asymmetric conflicts or protracted conflicts like Israel-Palestine.
Part 2 examines the role of economics in peacebuilding, noting it can only succeed in context of political processes. Part 3 assesses Netanyahu's economic policies towards Palestine, finding continuing restrictions and control that seem aimed at normalization rather than contributing to peace negotiations.
