Focusing on three important and influential interest groups, the Gush Emunim, the Ihud kibbutz federation, and the Manufacturers' Association, Drezon-Tepler presents a comprehensive view of Israel's society and politics. Integrated here are unpublished sources, and material from personal interviews with prominent personalities including Prime Ministers Menachem Begin, Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres, and Minister Ariel Sharon. The book illuminates such current controversial topics in Israel as the influence of the volatile Gush Emunim, the country's chronically unstable economy, and the continued vitality of the kibbutz movement. Relevant beyond Israel's borders, this book enhances understanding of systems, groups, and change, presenting an original, analytical framework of three models for group and party decision making within democracies. Marcia Drezon-Tepler is a political scientist and Middle East specialist with a Ph.D. from Columbia University, and a former Fulbright Scholar in Israel. 410 0$aSUNY series in Israeli studies. 606 $aPressure groups$zIsrael 606 $aIndustrialists$zIsrael$xSocieties, etc$xPolitical activity 606 $aKibbutzim$xSocieties, etc$xPolitical activity 607 $aIsrael$xPolitics and government 615 0$aPressure groups 615 0$aIndustrialists$xSocieties, etc.$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aKibbutzim$xSocieties, etc.$xPolitical activity. 676 $a322.4/3/095694 700 $aDrezon-Tepler$b Marcia$f1948-$01869589 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954576403321 996 $aInterest groups and political change in Israel$94477782 997 $aUNINA
