Question of Palestine: Legal Aspects

One key perspective on this matter is the concept of "international legal subalternity," as discussed in the book "The United Nations and the Question of Palestine" by Ardi Imseis. This concept suggests that despite the United Nations' role in managing this long-standing conflict, there exists a gap between the organization's positions and international law requirements. The book argues that the actions of the UN have often relegated Palestine and its people to a state of subalternity within the international legal system, where the promise of justice through international law is continually deferred despite the appearance of political legitimacy provided by the international community.
