The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine is a 2006 book by the Jewish historian Ilan Pappé. It has been republished many times in hardback and paperback. Pappe offers impressive archival evidence to demonstrate that, from its very inception, a central plank in Israel's founding ideology was the forcible removal of the indigenous population, a strategy that continues to the present day.

Pappe was awarded the Middle East Monitor's Lifetime Achievement Award at the Palestine Book Awards in 2017 for book The Biggest Prison on Earth.

A publisher description states

"Since the Holocaust, it has been almost impossible to hide large-scale crimes against humanity. In our communicative world, few modern catastrophes are concealed from the public eye. And yet, Ilan Pappe unveils, one such crime has been erased from the global public memory: the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians in 1948. But why is it denied, and by whom? The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine offers an investigation of this mystery."
