Overview

Where are sustainable possibilities of peace with justice to be found in Israel-Palestine, tragically divided as it is between two peoples and three faiths? In the face of continuous, entrenched cycles of conflict can one maintain both a sense of perspective and a stance of realistic hopefulness? This book addresses the key issues embraced by those profound questions in thoughtful, practical ways. Gathering together dispatches and commentary over a period of nearly twenty years from international lawyer, independent diplomat and engaged ecumenist Dr Harry Hagopian, Keeping Faith With Hope blends experience and insight in often-unexpected ways. By interweaving the political, the personal and the spiritual, the author opens up new paths for understanding what is going on in Israel-Palestine and how we might engage more fruitfully with the region in the future. Here is both a testament to hope and a living exemplification of it.
