Ilan cardboard ( Hebrew אילן פפה, occasionally Ilan Pappé or Ilan Papeh , * 1954 in Haifa ) is an Israeli historian , author and professor at Exeter University .

Cardboard is counted among the group of the New Israeli Historians and is considered a proponent of a one-state solution to the Middle East conflict.

Life

Pappe's parents come from Germany and fled the German Empire from Nazism in the 1930s. He served in the Israeli army during the 1973 Yom Kippur War in the Golan Heights . In 1978 he graduated from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem . He completed his doctorate in 1984 at the University of Oxford under Albert Hourani and Roger Owen. From 1984 he was Professor of Political Science at Haifa University . In 1992 he founded the Academic Peace Institute in Givat Haviva , which he headed until 2000. From 2000 to 2006 he was chairman of the Emil Tuma Institute for Palestine Studies in Haifa. Pappe was politically active in the communist Chadash party, for which he ran in the 1999 elections for the 15th Knesset . In 2005, the university suggested that he resign because he actively campaigned for an international boycott of goods against Israel . He therefore moved to Exeter University in England , where he has been teaching since 2007. There he heads the European Center for Palestine Studies (CPS) established at the Institute for Arabic and Islamic Research in 2009 , the first research center in Europe to devote itself to Palestine as a multidisciplinary research focus. In 2007, Pappe and others wrote the “One State Declaration”, in which a two-state solution to the Middle East conflict is rejected and a one-state solution (i.e. without Israel as a Jewish state) is called for. Cardboard is included in the group of New Israeli Historians .

reception

In his book The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine (English 2006, German 2007), Pappe, based on newly available army documents, put forward the thesis that the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine had included the “planned expulsion” of the native Palestinian population and the Zionist leaders , above all David Ben Gurion , had pursued this goal with political and military means after the partition resolution of the UN in 1947 . The journalist John Pilger described Ilan Pappe as the bravest, most incorruptible and most harshly judgmental historian in Israel. Critics - including the equally the new Israeli historians attributed Benny Morris  - throw Pappe's work bias and methodological flaws before because he partially nursing a black and white narrative style and the references are incomplete, unlike in his previous works. Small and large distortions, according to Morris, are found on almost every side.

Paper's book A History of Modern Palestine: One Land, Two Peoples , which also deals with the time before Israel was founded, was criticized by Ephraim Karsh with similarly sharp words. He accused him of "countless errors and inaccuracies"; including that Pappe placed Deir Yasin in Haifa, although it is near Jerusalem.
