    The Rise of the Radical Right in Israel

This last election has erased any pretense that this phenomenon is fleeting. What is the “radical right” in Israel, what is its relationship to ethnocentric nationalism, democracy, minority rights, and human rights? How does it understand the “Jewish” descriptor of the state of Israel as a Jewish state? What is its relationship to religion?
