Horvitz Scholar-in-Residence SERIES PASS
The 27th Bunny and Leo Horvitz Scholar-in-Residence Program Israel at 70: Democracy, Politics and Society
Sunday, February 11Sunday, February 25
Dr. Reuven Y. Hazan, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem
The only democracy in the Middle East, Israel is looked upon with admiration and at the same time scrutinized relentlessly for the intricacies of its political system. As Israel approaches its 70th anniversary of modern statehood, with it comes an opportunity to reflect on its accomplishments and its challenges, as well as to raise some important questions about its future. How well does Israeli democracy function? What are the dominant issues that drive its electoral campaigns? And are its democratic institutions in need of reform? These questions resonate across religious and political lines, and this series will help our Houston community engage in valuable discourse around the meaning of democracy in Israel.
