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 concept of
populism, the book contributes to a better understanding of the
Israeli political system. With Israel playing such a central role
in the Middle East conflict, this analysis of the ways in which
populism contributes to the consolidation of governing political
forces in Israel will allow for a better understanding of this
conflict. Combining the theoretical elaboration of the concept of
populism with its application in the analysis of a specific
test-case, this novel approach contributes to the ongoing research
on populist politics, and as such will be a useful tool for
understanding many issues in the study of populism, comparative
politics and the Middle East.
