This book analyzes the efforts to forge a progressive and 'authentic' Israeli law that would express Jewish identity, and in the process tackles the complex meaning of Judaism: as a religion, culture and nationality. It examines the challenges of transplanting Judaism in the laws of a modern state.
Introduction: law as an expression of Jewish culture; Part I. Seeking to Fashion National Law: 1. Law and culture in early Zionist literature; 2. The Hebrew peace courts: the Yishuv judicial system that failed; 3. The Hebrew law society: an abortive attempt to fashion a Jewish-Hebrew national code of law; 4. Why a Jewish-Hebrew system of law was not instituted at independence; 5. A Hebrew constitution for the Jewish state: how did the cultural dispute prevent the promulgation of a written constitution; 6. Jewish law and legislation in Israel; Part II. The Resurgence of Cultural Conflict: 7. Jewish heritage and a Jewish democratic state: the identity discourse returns to the legal debate; 8. The identity turn and the Jewish and democratic state; Part III. Zionism, Democracy, Law, and Culture: 9. Zionism: making and preserving Hebrew culture; 10. Israeli law as a lieu de memoire of national identity and culture; Conclusion: list of legal cases.
