Abstract

This article engages with recent initiatives against Israel at the International Court of Justice to discuss the role of international law and some of the factors preventing the realization of a just peace through the realization of the Palestinians' right to self-determination. From a critical Marxist perspective, the article argues that certain achievements are insufficient if limited to a symbolic character and must be implemented at the political level.
