Dec 7th, 2007 by MESH

Alan Dowty is Professor Emeritus of Political Science, and Senior Associate for Middle East Studies of the Joan B. Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies, at the University of Notre Dame. In 2003-2006 he was the first holder of the Kahanoff Chair in Israeli Studies at the University of Calgary, and in 2004-2006 he was President of the Association for Israel Studies.

Professor Dowty is a graduate of Shimer College and the University of Chicago, where he received his Ph.D. in 1963. In 1963-1975 he was on the faculty of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, during which time he served as Executive Director of the Leonard Davis Institute for International Relations and Chairman of the Department of International Relations.

He has published widely on the Arab-Israel conflict, Israeli politics, U.S. foreign policy, weapons of mass destruction, international freedom of movement, and international enforcement. Among his books are The Limits of American Isolation (New York University Press, 1971), Middle East Crisis (University of California Press, 1984), which won the Quincy Wright Award of the International Studies Association, Closed Borders: The Contemporary Assault on Freedom of Movement (Yale University Press, 1987), which was written as a Twentieth Century Fund Report, and The Jewish State: A Century Later (University of California Press, 1998, 2001). An edited volume, Critical Problems in Israeli Society, was published by Praeger in early 2004. His latest book, Israel/Palestine (2005; second edition 2008), is published by Polity Press as part of its series on Hot Spots in Global Politics. He has published over 130 scholarly and popular articles and reviews, and has delivered over 500 public lectures in 19 countries.
