1939年白皮書

維基百科，自由的百科全書

1939年白皮書，又稱為麥克唐納白皮書，是1936年巴勒斯坦阿拉伯人大起義爆發後內維爾·張伯倫領導的英國政府發布的白皮書。 [1] 1939年5月23日經英國下議院正式批准。[2]它是1939年至1948年期間巴勒斯坦託管地的政策性文件。 [3]

該白皮書於1939年3月首次起草。 [4]白皮書呼籲十年內要建立一個獨立的巴勒斯坦國，而且在巴勒斯坦國內要建立起猶太人家園。它還規定五年內猶太人移民數量不應超過75,000人，並規定未來將由阿拉伯人決定是否允許讓更多的猶太人前往巴勒斯坦地區定居（第二部分）。在巴勒斯坦託管地內，除了占5%的區域外，猶太人被限制購買阿拉伯人的土地（第三部分）。

白皮書未能滿足阿拉伯人的要求，並被大部分巴勒斯坦阿拉伯黨派拒絕。然而國民防衛黨（英語：National Defense Party (Mandatory Palestine)）準備接受白皮書[5]。

位於巴勒斯坦的猶太復國主義團體也拒絕接受這份白皮書，並發起一場持續數月的反英襲擊活動。 5月18日，猶太人發起大罷工。[6]

白皮書中對土地轉讓的規定以及限制移民的條款得以實施，但到了1944年，只有51000名猶太人合法移民至巴勒斯坦地區，這比原計劃中的75,000上限要少。因此英國提出1944年後猶太人可以繼續移民至巴勒斯坦地區，但每月不應超過1,500人，直到達到75,000上限為止[7][8]。1945年12月到1948年期間，英國允許每月可以有1,500名猶太人前往巴勒斯坦地區定居。[9]

    Barnett Janner, Baron Janner（英語：Barnett Janner, Baron Janner） Pending the remitting of this question to the United Nations, are we to understand that the Mandate stands. and that we shall deal with the situation of immigration and land restrictions on the basis of the terms of the Mandate, and that the White Paper of 1939 will be abolished?...
    歐內斯特·貝文 No, Sir. We have not found a substitute yet for that White Paper, and up to the moment, whether it is right or wrong, the House is committed to it. That is the legal position. We did, by arrangement and agreement, extend the period of immigration which would have terminated in December, 1945. Whether there will be any further change, my right hon. Friend the Colonial Secretary, who, of course, is responsible for the administration of the policy, will be considering later."

A White Paper, first drafted in late March, was not published until early May, thus affording Arabs and Jews further opportunities to continue their efforts at influencing the final terms of the proposed British policy."

However, 1939 and the first two years of the war saw a quiet, low key dialogue between the government and Palestinians who were ready to accept the White Paper. But the government's intention was to keep the Arabs placated, encourage the moderates, and continue to talk but promise very little, particularly on the constitutional provisions contained in the White Paper."
