The '''New Historians''' are a loosely-defined group of Israeli historians who have published histories of expulsions of Palestinians by Israel in 1948, expropriations of Palestinian property, and/or campaigns of [[ethnic cleansing]] by Israel in and around 1948. Much of their [[primary source]] material comes from declassified Israeli government papers. The movement includes scholars such as [[Benny Morris]], [[Ilan Pappé]], [[Avi Shlaim]], [[Tom Segev]] and (retrospectively) [[Simha Flapan]]. Many of their conclusions have been incorporated into the political ideology of [[post-Zionism|post-Zionists]]. While some of the New Historians hold dovish political views, still others hold conservative views supporting expulsion.
