His current research concerns the economic interaction between Israel and Palestinians. On June 28 he discussed his analysis and findings during a presentation to the Economic Cooperation Foundation. He co-edited (with Michel Abitbol) an anthology of the work of Prof. Nehemia Levtzion, Islam in Africa and the Middle East: Studies on Conversion and Renewal (Variorum–Ashgate, 2007), and also wrote the introduction. His article, “Merchants and Peasants in the Nazareth Region” was published in the January 2007 issue of Journal of Peasant Studies. Nadan also edited four publications in the Hebrew University series, Perspectives on Middle East Socioeconomic Issues. email: a.nadan-alumni@lse.ac.uk |
