ABSTRACT

Jordan had various expectations when it initially signed the peace treaty with Israel. The Jordanians believed that the peace with Israel, coming after the Oslo Accords, would pave the way for a strategic understanding with Israel on the establishment of a Palestinian state in the West Bank (including Arab Jerusalem) and Gaza. Such an understanding, they believed, would finally rid them of the nightmare of the ‘alternative homeland’ scenario, that ‘Jordan is Palestine’. Secondly the Jordanians assumed that the economic ‘fruits of peace’ with Israel would extricate Jordan from its perennial economic woes. Jordan would be both secure and prosperous. None of these assumptions actually materialized. The Jordanians are, therefore, profoundly disappointed by the treaty and its real results. They are as fearful as ever of the ‘alternative homeland’ scenario, and they are still suffering, as always, from an economy perpetually on the brink.

与以色列的和平；约旦的损益表

摘要

约旦最初与以色列签署和平条约时有各种各样的期望。约旦人认为，在《奥斯陆协定》之后，与以色列的和平将为与以色列就在西岸（包括阿拉伯耶路撒冷）和加沙建立一个巴勒斯坦国的战略理解铺平道路。他们认为，这种理解最终将使他们摆脱“替代性家园”情景的噩梦，即“约旦是巴勒斯坦”。其次，约旦人认为，与以色列的经济“和平成果”会使约旦摆脱其常年的经济困境。约旦既安全又繁荣。这些假设实际上都没有实现。因此，约旦人对该条约及其实际结果深感失望。
