The Israeli Social Decline: A Look From Within

This is a crucial moment in Israeli history. The State of Israel stands at a social and moral crossroad, and the path the nation chooses from this point will determine the future of its people. In The Israeli Social Decline: A Look From Within, author Arik Bernstein, a mainstream conservative who held a senior position at one of Israel's main Jewish national establishments, directly addresses the social, economic, and political challenges Israel faces-and offers insightful solutions. One of the challenges Bernstein candidly points out is that greedy capitalism and the influence of large international conglomerates are contributing to Israel's social decline. And he doesn't steer clear of thorny issues such as the effects of Samson's Option, the Israeli nuclear strategy, on the government's perception and governance of its citizens. Nor does he shy away from proposing new suggestions on reaching a settlement in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Furthermore, his investigation of the various perceptions of the concept of nationalism proves to be vitally important to the national discussion. For students, educators, and public leaders interested in the future of the State of Israel, this revealing book is a must-read.
