The Dead Sea’s Minerals: the Blind Spot of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
My research project concerns the Dead Sea’s minerals. I consider those mineral resources as the blind spot of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. By revealing one of the initial and fundamental dimensions of the conflict, but forgotten today, my research strives to go beyond the TINA Narrative (There Is No Alternative Narrative) which has characterized this conflict since 1948. Without denying the complexity of this conflict, this highlighting of its materiality can contribute to moving away from an overly dogmatic vision. Indeed, through the Resource Diplomacy, the Dead Sea factor can help consider the peace process in a renewed and less pessimistic way, since the climate change era shows that true peace requires reconciling nature and culture.
