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.

  • Inequality, Identity, and the Long-Run Evolution of Political Cleavages in Israel 1949-2019
    WID.world WORKING PAPER N° 2020/17 Inequality, Identity, and the Long-Run Evolution of Political Cleavages in Israel 1949-2019 Yonatan Berman August 2020 Inequality, Identity, and the Long-Run Evolution of Political Cleavages in Israel 1949{2019 Yonatan Berman∗ y August 20, 2020 Abstract This paper draws on pre- and post-election surveys to address the long run evolution of vot- ing patterns in Israel from 1949 to 2019. The heterogeneous ethnic, cultural, educational, and religious backgrounds of Israelis created a range of political cleavages that evolved throughout its history and continue to shape its political climate and its society today. De- spite Israel's exceptional characteristics, we find similar patterns to those found for France, the UK and the US. Notably, we find that in the 1960s{1970s, the vote for left-wing parties was associated with lower social class voters. It has gradually become associated with high social class voters during the late 1970s and later. We also find a weak inter-relationship between inequality and political outcomes, suggesting that despite the social class cleavage, identity-based or \tribal" voting is still dominant in Israeli politics.

  • Jewish Fundamentalism and the Israeli Polity.Pdf
    JEWISH FUNDAMENTALISM AND THE ISRAELI POLITY1 Charles S. Liebman Bar-Ilan University Introduction The effort to understand Jewish fundamentalism and its impact on Israeli society is fraught with challenges. Not the least is defining the subject in a manner which is both methodologically rigorous and politically relevant. Fundamentalist beliefs and aspirations are not the same as the beliefs and aspirations of other religiously serious people, but they aren't always distinguishable from them either. Secondly, religious beliefs and aspirations may be hard to disentangle from national and ethnic beliefs and aspirations. Israeli society has been profoundly influenced by Jewish religious symbols and ideas, especially since 1967, independently of the growth of Jewish religious fundamentalism.2 In addition, Judaism, in Israel, has been increasingly interpreted in nationalistic and ethnically chauvinistic terms. This development has been influenced by the growth of religious fundamentalism but is not entirely accounted for by that growth. That is the subject of another study.3 This essay is concerned with the direct impact of religious fundamentalism on the Israeli political system. Its primary purpose is to describe the demands which fundamentalist spokesman have raised and the manner in which the non-fundamentalist sector has responded to these demands. What should be noted, however, is that social and cultural changes in the last twenty five years within the secular public in general but among the secular nationalists in particular, have generated a climate of sympathy for -1- religion and a legitimacy to the airing of fundamentalist ideas which did not exist in the past. The Subjects of this Study According to most estimates, somewhat less than 20 percent of Israeli Jews define themselves as religious (dati).
