- catalog abstract ""This book is a refutation of Professor Avi Shlaim's theory of an alleged collision between the Jews and king Abdullah (Collusion across the Jordan, Oxford University Press 1988, and The Politics of Partition: King Abdullah, the Zionists and Palestine, 1921-1951, OUP 1990). Shlaim asserts that to further his own aims of creating a greater Jordanian empire, Abdullah conducted secret diplomacy with David Ben-Gurion, Golda Meir and other Israeli leaders in self-serving maneuvers which hastened the partition of Palestine, and left more than a million Palestinian Arabs without a homeland." "Israeli-Jordanian Dialogue, 1948-1953 describes the development and vicissitudes of the relations between Israel and Jordan from the end of the British mandate and Transjordan's invasion of Palestine, through the war in 1948, the resumption of a direct dialogue that led to an armistice agreement, the abortive peace negotiations in 1949-51 and the simultaneous escalation of border hostilities. Gelber analyzes the triangle of relationships that developed between Israelis, Jordanians and Palestinians; and explains the involvement of Britain, the United States and the inter-Arab system in the shaping of these relations and their subsequent deterioration. Based on Israeli, Arab, British and American archival documents, the book follows the intricate balance between Israeli-Jordanian diplomatic activity and the realities of Israeli-Palestinian relations along the new armistice lines - innocent and hostile infiltration, retaliations and reprisals, to their culmination in the tragedy of Qibya in the fall of 1953 and the return of Jordan to the anti-Israeli Arab coalition."--Jacket.".
