“Challenging the established view that the civilian sector in Israel has been predominant over its security sector since the state's independence in 1948, this volume critically and systematically reexamines the relationship between these sectors and provides a deeper, more nuanced view of their interactions.”
“An excellent compendium of the best authors writing on the military, as well as a broad range of civil-military issues. . . . A useful and timely book, especially for specialists on military issues.”
— Joel Migdal, University of Washington
“On the whole, this book provides a comprehensive and fresh assessment of critical perspectives of the
militaristic culture present in Israel that is appropriate for the student and informed scholar alike.”
— British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies
“Militarism and Israeli Society makes a convincing case about the security network and the power it exercises in and on Israeli society.”
— Journal of Palestine Studies
