520 _aIn a theoretically based discussion of possibilities for crisis or conflict prevention, especially as they relate to the historic Arab-Israeli conflict, this report specifies objectives, considers past approaches and precedents, and combines the two to identify likely candidates for crisis prevention--arguably, the key objective in the case of the Middle East. In applying its analysis to that region, the report stresses the importance of encouraging interested parties from the Middle East to select, tailor, and pursue approaches that are already available to meet their particular crisis prevention objectives, as well as to begin the selection process by specifying those objectives for themselves.
