The parties invoked 'transformational legal framing' to portray the essentially political-religious conflict as a legal dispute involving claims of justice, injustice, and victimization, and giving rise to legal/equitable remedies. Employing this form of narrative and framing in multiple 'trials' during the first 15 years of the Mandate, the parties continued the practice during the last and most crucial decade of the Mandate. The term 'trial' provides an appropriate typology for understanding the adversarial proceedings during those years in which judges, lawyers, witnesses, cross-examination, and legal argumentation played a key role in the conflict. The four trials between 1939-1948 produced three different outcomes: the one-state solution in favour of the Palestinian Arabs, the no-state solution, and the two-state solution embodied in the United Nations November 1947 partition resolution. This study analyses the role of the law during the last decade of the British Mandate for Palestine"-- $c Provided by the publisher. 545 0 $a Steven E.
