In addition, the absence of elections in the Palestinian economy is due to the duplication of public politics in both the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, and their direct effects on the general budget considering the lack of planning and oversight, which has affected the level of transparency and accountability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">All this has directly affected Palestinian society in all its aspects and has increased tensions such as demonstrations and strikes, which have increased the situation of impunity and crimes without accountability among segments of society. At the international level, the absence of elections and the negative renewal of legitimacy have affected the political project and the international community&#8217;s advocacy of the Palestinian cause, considering the rapid global changes and transformations. In the end, the policy paper outlined four main trends in promoting the chances of elections in Palestine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"http:\/\/palthink.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/IFA-Election-paper-EN.pdf\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Read full paper:<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4729 alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/palthink.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/kisspng-pdf-computer-file-clip-art-file-format-document-international-conference-on-materials-energy-april-5b630034cc5aa3.784415241533214772837.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"108\" height=\"81\" \/><\/span> <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This paper tracks the disastrous repercussions of the political and legal absence of Palestinian elections, the distortion of the work of the three authorities as a result of the suspension of some provisions of the Basic Law and the dissolution of the Legislative Council.
