Like most 19th and 20th century national movements, culture played
a focal role in the shaping of Jewish-Israeli national identity,
and with Zionism being the secular movement that it is, culture
became the effective prism through which religious and historical
notions of Jewish nationalism were filtered. As Israel reaches its
50th year of statehood, Israeli society faces a deepening crisis of
identity. This is particularly evident in Israeli culture which,
for quite some time, has been effectively disintegrating into
several simultaneous sub-cultures. This process has gained momentum
during the 1990s due to a relaxation of national cohesiveness
following the Arab-Israeli peace negotiations on the one hand, and
the growing post-modern influences on Israeli culture, on the
other. This, in turn, has brought to the fore a whole range of
questions which have hitherto been ignored, not least the
inter-relationship between the Hebrew and Jewish aspects of Israeli
culture.
