From Left to Right: Shifting Currents in Israeli Politics from 1948 to the Present

David Myers’ talk will examine important shifts on the Israeli political spectrum from the thirty-year rule of the Labor Party (as of 1948) to the "upheaval" of 1977, when Menachem Begin came to power, commencing a nearly half-century reign of right-wing control. It will also discuss the meandering route of the Israeli peace movement, as well as the challenges faced by Arab political parties in Israel.
