BOAS EVRON, a sabra, has been a columnist and critic for Haaretz and Yediot Aharonot and is founder and director of the Israeli Arts Council Project of Translations of the Classics into Hebrew. His previous publications in Hebrew include The Quality of Freedom and A National Reckoning, from which the present work is adapted.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Boas Evron traces the violent fissures in Israeli society to a basic incompatibility between the concept of a democratic, secular state, on the one hand, and an integral nation defined on a religious basis, on the other. Surveying the full sweep of Jewish history, Evron argues that the Jews were never a territorial nation. Judaism is instead a religious civilization for which the diaspora was not a historical coincidence but a necessary condition of its existence. He concludes that Israel should become a territorial state accommodating its sizeable non-Jewish minority in a truly democratic way.
