Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace

Part I:  On 29 January 2002, the Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace issued a detailed response to my paper, “Democracy, History, and the Contest over the Palestinian Curriculum” that I had presented at the Adam Institute two months earlier.  The CMIP’s response is entitled “The Anti-Peace Orientation of Palestinian Textbooks.”

I wrote a detailed rejoinder to that response, entitled, “Detailed Response to the Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace.”  In that response, I showed how the CMIP misquoted itself, claimed it had not made statements that it indeed made, omitted critical information, and consistently and severely misled its readers.  My response is long, but readers who are interested in the CMIP’s methods are urged to consult it for detailed and substantiated evidence of its errors, false statements, and misleading techniques.

 

Part II:  CMIP did respond to this critique.  That response and my rejoinder can be viewed at: Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace: Rejoinder.

 

Part III:  Since that exchange, CMIP has criticized my work on several grounds, both personal and methodological.  A letter to UNRWA sparked an exchange between CMIP and me: Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace: Correspondence.
