The Palestinian Conflict From The Perspective Of The Trialogue Of The Abrahamic Faiths: An Analysis Of Peace And Reconciliation Efforts

Abstract

The Palestinian conflict is a protracted conflict with intertwined political, historical, national identity, and religious dimensions. Various attempts to resolve the conflict through political diplomacy have not yet fully resulted in sustainable peace. Therefore, an alternative approach is needed that can build trust, reconciliation, and cooperation across communities. This study aims to analyze the Palestinian conflict through the perspective of the Trialogue of the Abrahamic Faiths as a conceptual framework to support peace and reconciliation efforts. The study used library research with a qualitative-descriptive approach. Data were obtained from books, scientific journal articles, international organization documents, and literature on interfaith dialogue, conflict resolution, and peace studies. The analysis was conducted using content analysis techniques to identify the relationship between the shared values ??of the Abrahamic faiths—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—and the process of conflict transformation. The results show that the Trialogue of the Abrahamic Faiths offers an ethical foundation based on the values ??of human dignity, justice, compassion, and peace as prerequisites for social reconciliation. This approach is not intended to replace a political solution, but rather to complement it by strengthening theological dialogue, humanitarian cooperation, and interfaith diplomacy that can reduce prejudice, build trust, and strengthen social cohesion. This study proposes a conceptual model that integrates theological foundations, interfaith dialogue, social relations transformation, and peacebuilding as a contribution to the development of conflict resolution and interfaith dialogue studies. This model is expected to serve as an analytical framework for efforts to achieve a just, inclusive, and sustainable peace in Palestine.
