A Unique Democracy
With a figurehead President, a Judiciary without juries, and
never having a government complete its four year mandate, Israel has a
'special' form of democracy. Moshe Pomerantz will bring you up to date on how
democracy works in Israel and how the election process influences the practical
issues of governing Israel. It's not
quite the European and definitely not the American way, but Israel has a system
of government that reflects a strong democratic process that is often filled
with issues, confrontations, and no shortage of entertainment.
