Following the recent Israeli elections, the most “right-wing” coalition the country has ever seen has embarked on an aggressive judicial reform, polarizing Israeli society as never before. Religious Zionism plays an important role in this, permeating even the Likud party, so it is up to us to understand this dangerous shift in all its aspects.

This week, we are therefore presenting the first installment of a new series on religious Zionism, which is set to grow. We spoke about this movement, its origins and its orientations with YYehudah Mirsky a specialist in the history of Zionist thought.
