  • The Evolution of the Israeli Party System Gyula Gazdik
    The evolution of the Israeli party system Gyula Gazdik he Israelis pride themselves in being the only democracy in the Middle East. At first sight this claim seems to be the case. It is true to say that while the region's TIslamic countries made numerous attempts during the past decades to reform their institutional system - by contrast to the Jewish state - they made little progress with respect to the liberalisation of society and executive control. However, such comparison can only be ostensible, since the exercise of power is largely influenced by the historical and cultural diversity of the countries under scrutiny. The situation of the Palestinian population of Israel is the primary target of various critiques with respect to Israeli democracy.1 Israel - with a population of six million - is a multiethnic, multi-religious and multicultural country.2 Eighty per cent of the population is Jewish and - besides the 17 per cent-strong Arab community - there are also Druses, Circassians and other minorities. The coexistence of three regional monotheistic religions makes the country unique. While one half of the Jewish population was in Israel, the other half comprises immigrants from 70 countries. As a consequence of the wave of large-scale immigration from the successor states of the Soviet Union at the end of the 1980s, approximately 800,000 people arrived in the country. This enduring multicultural environment had an intrinsic effect on national integration. Whereas this persistent hostile environment, which has endured since the creation of the state in 1948, coupled with the feeling of insecurity following the Arab- Israeli conflict reinforced this process, the continuing division between the various Jewish communities retarded integration.

Likud: A Balance Of Historic Ideology and Reality https://www.e-ir.info/2012/01/27/likud-a-balance-of-historic-ideology-and-reality/ AARON T. WALTER, JAN 27 2012 1. Introduction David Easton’s systems theory based on the idea of political life as a boundary maintaining set of interactions embedded in and surrounded by other social systems that constantly influence it[1], can explain the policymaking of Israel’s Likud party as both choice and as the unit level actor in Israeli politics (Dougherty & Pfaltzgraff, 2001). The politics of Israel is a process where unity is often a catch phrase but deep ideological sentiments lie beneath the surface. Such sentiments are rooted in both secularism and religious orthodoxy. Therefore, in its decision-making (DM), issues such as settlements in the territories, peace with Arab neighbor states, and Palestinian sovereignty are influenced accordingly. Furthermore, at various times in government Likud has been guided as much by its leader, as that leader has been guided by his ideological principles, the two as mutual inclusive; whether that was Menachem Begin, Benjamin Netanyahu, or Ariel Sharon. This reality is consistent with the foreign policy analysis (FPA) subfield of DM theory. All men and the coalition they lead faced pressures either in making peace with Israel’s enemies or dealing with foreign pressures, which is best described following Easton’s systems theory explanation as an input- output analysis.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 o ON CA lA N Abstract For six years since 1984 Israel underwent a unique p o litic al experience: i t was ruled by national coalitions supported by more than 75% of the members of parliament. Larger-than-minimal coalitions have always been problematic for traditional coalition theory. The Israeli case provides therefore an opportunity to examine the various actors' motivations and behaviour, as they reflect on coalition theory at 1arge. The assumption that actors are driven by "win maximization" is central to formal models of coalition theory. This assumption led to predictions of winning coalitions which are minimal in size, membership or ideological scope. Non-minimal coalitions were regarded as suboptimal choices, explainable on an ad hoc basis, e.g.

  • ISRAEL Date of Elections: October 28, 1969 Characteristics Of
    ISRAEL Date of Elections: October 28, 1969 Characteristics of Parliament The Parliament of Israel, the Knesset, is unicameral and consists of 120 Deputies elected for 4 years. The elections of October 28 were held upon the normal expiry of the previous legislature. Electoral System Every citizen, of either sex, may vote provided he has reached the age of 18 by the determining day — the last day of December of the year preceding the register year, which commences on the 139th day after the determining day. The law makes no other stipulation as to eligibility to vote. Normally, electors must vote in the constituency in which they are reg­ istered. However, for the elections of 1969, the Electoral Law was amended to authorize sailors and passengers aboard Israeli ships to take part in the voting. In addition, special provisions were made to enable soldiers stationed on the frontiers to vote. Every Israeli citizen of either sex and who has reached the age of 21 on the day of the admission of a candidates' list may stand for the Knesset. The following shall not be candidates: the President of the State, the 2 Chief Rabbis, the State Comptroller, judges and members of religious courts, rabbis and ministers of other religions while holding office for a remuneration, and, finally, State officials holding a rank greater than grade 5, and officers while serving or during a period of 100 days after they cease to serve. A list of candidates may be presented by each Party represented in the outgoing Knesset or by 750 members of the electorate.

    Manifesto Project Dataset List of Political Parties [email protected] Website: https://manifesto-project.wzb.eu/ Version 2020b from December 23, 2020 Manifesto Project Dataset - List of Political Parties Version 2020b 1 Coverage of the Dataset including Party Splits and Merges The following list documents the parties that were coded at a specific election. The list includes the name of the party or alliance in the original language and in English, the party/alliance abbreviation as well as the corresponding party identification number. In the case of an alliance, it also documents the member parties it comprises. Within the list of alliance members, parties are represented only by their id and abbreviation if they are also part of the general party list. If the composition of an alliance has changed between elections this change is reported as well. Furthermore, the list records renames of parties and alliances. It shows whether a party has split from another party or a number of parties has merged and indicates the name (and if existing the id) of this split or merger parties. In the past there have been a few cases where an alliance manifesto was coded instead of a party manifesto but without assigning the alliance a new party id. Instead, the alliance manifesto appeared under the party id of the main party within that alliance. In such cases the list displays the information for which election an alliance manifesto was coded as well as the name and members of this alliance. 2 Albania ID Covering Abbrev Parties No. Elections

  • ISRAEL Date of Elections
    ISRAEL Date of Elections: December 31, 1973 Purpose of Elections Elections were held for all the members of Parliament upon the normal expiry of their term of office. Characteristics of Parliament The unicameral Parliament of Israel, the Knesset, consists of 120 Deputies elected for 4 years. Electoral System Every Israeli national, of either sex, at least 18 years of age may vote. Although no persons are expressly disqualified from voting, certain may not practically do so because they are not provided with polling facilities; this includes prisoners or persons abroad who are not seamen. The electoral register is drawn up at the national level by the Ministry of Interior and is prepared anew each year. Voting is not compulsory. Every eligible voter at least 21 years of age may be a candidate to the Knesset. The following people, however, are barred from being candidates: the President of the State; the State Comptroller; salaried rabbis; judges; and senior civil servants and army officers of a certain rank, unless they cease to hold their posts 100 days before election day. Where a more junior civil servant or army officer becomes a candidate his service is suspended until election day and, if he becomes a member of the Knesset, so long as he is a parliamentarian. A list of candidates may be presented either by 750 members of the electorate or by a party group represented in the outgoing Knesset. In the former case the representative of the list must deposit I£ 15,000, which deposit is returned if the list obtains 1 % of the total valid votes cast in the country.
