Title The Growing Rapprochement between Israel and Arab States: Causative Factors and Prospects

Author(s) Yumna Rashid

Abstract Abstract Despite historical tensions, recent developments have shown signs of change, indicating a potential shift towards peace and collaboration. The study primarily focuses on the factors driving this normalization with Israel, with a particular emphasis on the role of political and economic elites in Arab states. Economic considerations, such as trade and investment opportunities, have played a crucial role in motivating some Arab states to pursue closer ties with Israel. Additionally, the United States has played a significant role in fostering Arab-Israeli reconciliation, leveraging its global influence and close relationships with both parties. The research adopts a qualitative, explanatory, and descriptive research design Primary data is collected through interviews and archives, while secondary sources, such as books, scholarly articles, publications, and web sources, are utilized for supplementary information. Discourse analysis is employed as a method to evaluate documents, such as accords and agreements between Arab states and Israel, to gain deeper insights into the narrative surrounding the normalization process. The findings shed light on the historical context and complexities of the Arab-Israeli conflict, examining the factors contributing to the recent trend of reconciliation. Understanding the causes and mechanisms behind this shift is essential for fostering more significant understanding and collaboration between the two sides, and may serve as a guiding post for future policy initiatives aimed at ensuring a more promising and cooperative regional environment in the Middle East.
