  • 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.

A number of political issues resulting from the DMC split are still up in the air, including: -- The long-term political future of the party's successor bodies and some of the old DMC leaders. -- The allegiance of the approximately 200,000 Israelis who voted for the DMC in the 1977 national election. -- Readjustments in cabinet posts as a re- sult of pressure from coalition partners already jockeying to strengthen their positions. Yadin's "Democtratic Movement" and Rubinstein's group each control 7 Knesset seats. Rubinstein heads the former dovish Shinui reform movement, which recently agreed to merge with the forces of former Minister Transportation Meir Amit, who resigned from the cabinet earlier this week. The new party reportedly will the be called Shay, Hebrew acronym for the "Movement for Change and Ini- tiative." The remaining seat from the DMC is Assaf held by Yaguri, who according to some reports continues to negotiate with Yadin.

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

  • The Myth of the Disproportionate Influence of Small Parties in Israel
    CSD Center for the Study of Democracy An Organized Research Unit University of California, Irvine www.democ.uci.edu The proposition that proportional representation gives small parties (particularly religious parties) disproportionate influence in Israeli politics is frequently taken as given, and has largely gone unchallenged. For example, advocates of constitutional change and electoral reform in Israel frequently cite the unwarranted power of small parties as a reason for making the control of government less proportional (Susser 1989, 1993, Elazar 1988). Outside observers also point to the extreme proportionality of the Israeli electoral system and the influence it affords small parties as a problem (Bogdanor 1993, Sartori 2000). However, to our knowledge no one has systematically tested whether the Israeli electoral system actually gives a disproportionate degree of power to small parties. This paper fills this gap. We find surprisingly little evidence that the electoral system gives small parties disproportionate influence. It is only in the case in the elections of 1981, 1984 and 1988 that small parties may have had bargaining power disproportionate to their size, and even here the degree of disproportionate influence is slight. Furthermore, this disproportionality is due less to the electoral system than to the fact that these elections were virtual dead heats between the two large parties. Even single-member district elections produce hung parliaments in such circumstances. Our analysis suggests that making the Israeli electoral system less proportional would probably not reduce the influence of small parties, and may even increase it. Of course, we do not wish to claim that small parties have never been able to negotiate special privileges for their constituents.

  • Politics and Religion in the Warsaw Ghetto Beyond the Labor
    JISMOR 7 Eli Isser Kavon Politics and Religion in the Warsaw Ghetto: Beyond the Labor Zionist Narrative Eli Isser Kavon Abstract The Jewish uprising against the Nazis in April 1943 in the Warsaw Ghetto has achieved legendary status in the remembrance of the Holocaust. But how has the revolt been portrayed and interpreted by historians both Jewish and non-Jewish? In Israel—where Labor Zionism under David Ben-Gurion dominated the society and politics of the first thirty years of the Jewish State—the ideology of the founders has been selective in its understanding of the Holocaust, specifically the revolt in the Warsaw Ghetto. Political ideology has distorted the understanding of past events. Both Revisionist Zionism and the Jewish religion played a major role in the life and fiery end of the ghetto, yet the Labor Zionists have ignored both phenomena in their telling of the story of the Holocaust. With the rise of post-Zionists in Israel, the triumph of right-wing Zionists in the political realm, and the religious revival of Judaism in the Jewish State, new narratives that have been ignored are now coming to the fore. The roles of Revisionist Zionism and Orthodox Judaism are finally being explored in an attempt to overcome the skewing of the past by the dominant political ideology in the State of Israel. The Revisionist followers of Jabotinsky were bold fighters against the Nazis in Warsaw—their role in the rebellion deserves to be investigated and revealed. As well, religious Jews rebelled against the Nazis through their commitment to their faith.
