The Palestinian-Israeli conflict is often seen as an intractable conflict. while partition (a two-state solution) has been the dominant proposal, others have suggested a democratic, one-state solution. One-state proponents usually suggest that the political structure should be a binational or consociational structure of some kind. In this paper develop an argument in support of either a one-state or a two-state solution as the preferred resolution to this conflict. If you contend that a one-state solution is best, you must also engage with your critics that argue that a two-state solution is better, and vice versa. Your introduction should specify both your claim and the reasons that you advance in support of it. Your paper should be 5 to 7 pages in length.
