About the Research This book reviews the struggle for hegemony in Jerusalem between secular and ultra-orthodox (haredi) Jews. It examines the democratic deficit in urban politics formed by the rise of the haredi minority to power, and proposes ways to rectify this deficit. The study addresses the following questions: What are the characteristics of the urban democratic deficit? How did the haredi minority become a leading political force in the city? What are the implications of the democratic deficit from the perspective of the various cultural groups? What can be done in view of the fact that the non-haredi population is not only under-represented but also feels threatened and prejudiced by urban politics initiated by the city council? About the Floersheimer Institute for Policy Studies In recent years the importance of policy-oriented research has been increasingly acknowledged. Dr. Stephen H. Floersheimer initiated the establishment of a research institute that would concentrate on studies of long- range policy issues.

    GUIDE TO THE ARCHIVAL RECORD GROUPS AND COLLECTIONS Jerusalem, July 2003 The contents of this Guide, and other information on the Central Zionist Archives, may be found on Internet at the following address: http://www.zionistarchives.org.il/ The e-mail address of the Archives is: [email protected] 2 Introduction This edition of the Guide to the Archival Record Groups and Collections held at the Central Zionist Archives has once again been expanded. It includes new acquisitions of material, which have been received recently at the CZA. In addition, a new section has been added, the Maps and Plans Section. Some of the collections that make up this section did appear in the previous Guide, but did not make up a separate section. The decision to collect the various collections in one section reflects the large amount of maps and plans that have been acquired in the last two years and the advancements made in this sphere at the CZA. Similarly, general information about two additional collections has been added in the Guide, the Collection of Announcements and the Collection of Badges. Explanation of the symbols, abbreviations and the structure of the Guide: Dates appearing alongside the record groups names, signify: - with regard to institutional archives: the period in which the material that is stored in the CZA was created. - with regard to personal archives: the birth and death dates of the person. Dates have not been given for living people. The numbers in the right-hand margin signify the amount of material comprising the record group, in running meters of shelf space (one running meter includes six boxes of archival material).

  • Erken Seçime Giden İsrail'deki Siyasi Görünüm Ve 'Son Dakika
    Kapak Konusu Birinci Netanyahu hükümeti gibi ikinci Netanyahu hükümeti de ağırlıklı olarak Sağ ve Ortodoks partilerden kurulmuştur. Erken Seçime Giden İsrail’deki Siyasi Görünüm ve ‘Son Dakika’ Sürprizleri Political Landscape and ‘Last Minute’ Surprises in Israel Heading Towards Early Elections Ali Oğuz DİRİÖZ Abstract The Israeli government’s decision to have early general elections (for the 19th Knesset) on 22 January 2013 may be seen as sudden, yet came as no real surprise. Like many preceding governments, the current Israeli government was the product of a multi-party coalition; which meant that at any serious disagreement, the possibility for its collapse was ever-present. The government experienced divergences regarding the Tal law concerning Yeshiva students’ military service, and many other differences, could not agree on the 2013 Budget, and consequently decided to head for general elections. In this election, Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Likud party and Foreign Minister Lieberman’s Yisrael Beiteinu party decided to join forces and have a single list. This joint Likud-Yisrael Beiteinu coalition, unless a big surprise, seems most likely to become the largest group in the Knesset, and would likely lead the new government in spite of a small loss of votes. However, the recent “last moment” indictment and subsequent resignation of Foreign Affairs Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, might change the balances for the next government.

  • The Islamic State and Israel's Arab Population
    The Islamic State and Israel’s Arab Population: The Scope of the Challenge and Ways to Respond Mohammed Abo Nasra The Islamic State (IS) embodies a sociopolitical phenomenon that reverberates throughout the Arab world and the world at large. This essay explores how Arab citizens of Israel view the Islamic State, and to what extent this view is influenced by political, civic, and personal factors. The study also examines the positions of Arab citizens on the global war against the Islamic State, the status of the organization in the Muslim world, the chances of its survival, and its effect on Israel’s national security. Discourse about the positions of Israel’s Arab citizens on various matters began with the founding of the state. Since the nation’s birth, the Jewish majority and the establishment have viewed the Arab sector as a population whose loyalty to the state is questionable and as such is liable to cooperate with hostile elements and be involved in actions undermining state security.1 The persistent and fundamental suspicion of Arabs has its roots in some deep-seated factors: first is the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Arab world in general, and the Palestinian people in particular. Second is the basic identification of the Arab population in Israel with the Palestinian people and its demands for a nation state. 2 Consequently, over the years an attitude to the Arab population took hold regarding security matters that shaped the relationship between the Jewish majority and the Arab minority. This attitude had a profound effect on the socioeconomic and political status of the Arab citizens and their integration into Jewish society.3 Overall, most Israeli Jews and Arabs have only distant relations, characterized by distrust and alienation, leading to a deep divide.

  • Was Israel a Western Project in Palestine?
    Journal of Islamicjerusalem Studies, 2020, 20(2): 189-206 DOI: 10.31456/beytulmakdis.777767 WAS ISRAEL A WESTERN PROJECT IN PALESTINE? Ibrahim KARATAŞ* ABSTRACT: This study aims to ascertain the extent to which it was Western powers or Zionists that founded Israel. The study argues that Israel was established by Western powers, while not ignoring the partial but significant role of Zionists that sought for a Jewish homeland. The West needed a Jewish homeland in order to utilise Jewish wealth, while also keeping Jews away since they were disturbed by the presence of the Jewish community. On the other hand, the World Zionist Organisation, motivated by anti-Semitism and nationalism, pioneered the idea of a Jewish national home and tried to persuade Western leaders as to the viability of a homeland in Palestine. While Zionist lobbying was influential, it can hardly be argued that they would have founded Israel without the help and permission of Western states, and in particular, the British Empire. The study aims to reveal external roles in nation-building by analysing the case of Israel. Methodologically, both quantitative and qualitative researches were used. KEYWORDS: Israel, Zionism, Mandate System, Palestine, Middle East. INTRODUCTION The State of Israel was founded in 1948 with UN Resolution 181 that partitioned the Mandate of Palestine into two states: Palestine and Israel. However, due to several wars fought between neighbouring Arab states and Israel that resulted in the defeat of the former, Israel occupied most of the Palestinian territories, thereby leaving only one single state (Israel) on the former mandate. Unlike other countries, as Israelis themselves accept, Israel does not accept multiculturalism and multi-ethnicity, recognising only Judaism as the official religion and Hebrew as the nation’s language.

  • The Legal Philosophies of Religious Zionism 1937-1967 Alexander Kaye Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Th
    The Legal Philosophies of Religious Zionism 1937-1967 Alexander Kaye Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2012 Alexander Kaye All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Legal Philosophies of Religious Zionism 1937-1967 Alexander Kaye This dissertation is an attempt to recover abandoned pathways in religious Zionist thought. It identifies a fundamental shift in the legal philosophy of religious Zionists, demonstrating that around the time of the establishment of the State of Israel, religious Zionists developed a new way of thinking about the relationship between law and the state. Before this shift took place, religious Zionist thinkers affiliated with a variety of legal and constitutional philosophies. As shown in chapter 1, the leaders of the religious kibbutz movement advocated a revolutionary, almost anarchic, approach to law. They (in theory, at least,) only accepted rules that emerged spontaneously from the spirit of their religious and national life, even if that meant departing from traditional halakha. Others had a more positive attitude towards law but, as chapter 2 shows, differed widely regarding the role of halakha in the constitution of the Jewish state. They covered a spectrum from, at one extreme, the call for a complete separation between religion and state to, on the other, the call a rabbinic oversight of all legislation. They all, however, were legal pluralists; they agreed that a single polity may have within it a plurality of legitimate sources of legal authority and that, even in a Jewish state, other kinds of legislation may hold authority alongside halakha.

Viewpoints are another MEI service to audiences interested in learning more about the complexities of issues affecting the Middle East and US rela- tions with the region.
