What Have Populists Done for Us?
This ground-breaking book goes beyond conventional arguments to explore how and why populists are able to hold power for long periods. It illustrates that exclusionary populist movements maintain power whenever they succeed in stabilizing social structures around a political project promoted as an alternative to the current hegemony. Dani Filc and Amit Avigur-Eshel employ a neo-Gramscian framework grounded in the distinct analytical concepts of ideology, historical blocs, and economic growth models to examine the long rule of Israel's Likud party during 2009-2019. Exemplifying how public policies are crucial to exclusionary populists retaining power, they find that the combination of neolibe...

Education among Indigenous Palestinians in Israel
Unparalleled in its scope, this book provides a detailed longitudinal analysis of indigenous Palestinian education in Israel since the establishment of the state. Taking a comparative approach, Majid Al-Haj juxtaposes the Arab and Hebrew education systems in Israel, from early childhood through higher education, looking at their administration, resources, curriculum content, and outcomes. Significantly, the book represents the first systematic examination of an authentic model for social change and educational empowerment initiated by Palestinian Arabs in Israel through a civil society organization. Blending quantitative and qualitative methods, Al-Haj addresses widely debated theoretical questions about the role of education among indigenous minorities and disadvantaged groups in the context of cultural hegemony and inequalities, on the one hand, and self-empowerment and social change, on the other. Lastly, Al-Haj offers a review of the pre-state period and considers the impact of the ongoing Israel-Palestinian conflict on the goals, substance, and narratives of Arab and Hebrew education.

The Political Right in Israel
This book takes a fresh look at the trajectories of Israeli politics since the election of Likud in 1977, examining how right wing parties have adopted populist policies in order to carve out an identity and win support at the polls. As such it demonstrates how populism has become a hugely significant factor in shaping Israeli politics and society. The original perspective taken by the author allows for an understanding of the central phenomena of the contemporary political system in Israel, such as the Likud's party centrality in Israeli politics, the political force of the religious Shas party and the growing influence of certain political leaders. Through this innovative analysis of the c...
As Políticas Públicas frente a Transformação da Sociedade 2
O campo de estudos sobre as políticas públicas evoluiu ao longo dos séculos XX e XXI de modo reflexivo aos movimentos pendulares de maximização e minimização do tamanho do Estado nos contextos nacionais, apresentando um conjunto peculiar de instrumentos teórico-metodológicos multidisciplinares com finalidades não apenas descritivas, mas também prescritivas em uma realidade permeada pela complexidade. Partindo de reflexões do campo de Políticas Públicas, a presente obra, intitulada “As Políticas Públicas frente à Transformação da Sociedade 2”, configura-se por robusta coletânea de pesquisas empíricas relacionadas às áreas de Educação e Saúde, as quais possuem ric...
Raketengetrieben
"Abermals stellt sich heraus, dass meine Generation ganz andere Prioritäten darüber hat, was die existenzielle Bedrohung unseres Landes ausmacht, als unsere politische Führungsschicht." Adi Livny schildert aus der Perspektive eines säkularen, gebildeten, urbanen Menschen in den 20ern und 30ern, wie es ist, als junger Mensch im heutigen Tel Aviv zu leben. Nicht der Nahost-Konflikt, sondern der Kampf ums wirtschaftliche Überleben ist die prägendste Erfahrung dieser Generation.
