Brother Against Brother: Violence and Extremism in Israeli Politics from Altalena to the Rabin Assassination , Ehud Sprinzak |
| Description: Brother Against Brother takes the reader through the critical turning points of Israeli political history, and introduces us to the leaders whose careers were baptized by blood. In a masterful blending of narrative and historical analysis, Sprinzak begins with the Altalena incident of June 1948, the first armed dispute between David Ben- Gurion's Labor-led government and the right-wing paramilitary Irgun organization, led by future prime minister Menachem Begin and concludes with the Rabin assassination in 1995. | |

Israel and the Politics of Jewish Identity: The Secular-Religious Impasse , Asher Cohen |
| Description: Since the 1980s, relationships between secular and religious Israelis have gone from bad to worse. What was formerly a politics of accommodation, one whose main objective was the avoidance of strife through "arrangements" and compromises, has become a winner-take-all, zero-sum game. The conflict is not over who gets what. Rather, it is a conflict over the very character of the polity, a struggle to define Israel's collective character. In Israel and the Politics of Jewish Identity Asher Cohen and Bernard Susser show how this transformation has been caused by structural changes in Israel's public sphere. Surveying many different levels of public life, they explore the change of Israel's politics from a dominant-party system to a balanced two-camp system. They trace the rise of the Haredi parties and the growing consonance of religiosity with right-wing politics. Other topics include the new Basic Laws on Freedom, Dignity, and Occupation; the effects of massive immigration of secular Jews from the former Soviet Union; the greater emphasis on liberal "good government"; and the rise of an aggressive investigative press and electronic media. | |

The Scroll or the Sword? Dilemmas of Religion and Military Service in Israel , Stuart A. Cohen |
| Description: Israel's defence forces have traditionally been considered immune to divisive tensions within Israeli society at large. Relations between religious and secular troops, especially, were for many years thought to be harmonious and consensual. The Scroll or the Sword? demonstrates that this is no longer the case. Constituting the first detailed analysis of contemporary Jewish religious attitudes towards armed service in Israel, this volume draws on a wide range of classical and modern sources to illustrate the variety of current theological challenges to Israel's military cohesion. Cohen's study is essential reading for an understanding of such issues as: the reaction of the national religious troops and their rabbinic leadership to the current peace process; the attitudes of orthodox and ultra-orthodox Jewry to compulsory conscription; and the concerns generated in secular Israeli circles by the existence of units composed of specifically religious personnel. | |

Two Public Letters of Rav Abraham Ha-Kohen Kook & The Responsum of Rav BenZion Uziel On Womens Suffrage , Abraham Ha-Kohen Kook & BenZion Meir Uziel |
| Description: Translations of the halakhic opinions of Rav Abraham Ha-Kohen Kook and Rav BenZion Uziel on the questions of the permissibility women's suffrage, and more generally, women's participation in public life. The documents were written in 1919 and 1920, when the authors held the offices of Chief Ashkenazic Rabbi of Jerusalem and Chief Sephardic Rabbi of Jaffa respectively, and the question of women's suffrage was first debated in the Western world and Palestine. Rav Kook argued that women's suffrafe as well as participation in public life were strictly forbidden by Jewish law and ethics, while Rav Uziel maintained that both were absolute rights accorded women by the Torah and the logic of democratic principles. | |
