Abstract

The article discusses debate within Israel over the relationship between the country's democracy and its identity as Jewish state, highlighting legislation proposed by Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli nationalist politicians that would elevate the significance of Israel's Jewish identity. Topics addressed include the dissolution of the Israeli Parliament over the legislation, as well as considerations of Israel's relationship with Palestinian Arabs.
