Debates about democratic backsliding typically include examples from Hungary, Poland, Turkey, and even the United States, but Israel is rarely mentioned. Neeta Oren asks: Should researchers include Israel on this list? Is Benjamin Netanyahu a populist leader? Are there lessons to be learned from the Israeli case of populism and democratic backsliding?Oren answers affirmatively to all these questions, analyzing related phenomena, such as populism and the erosion of democracy in Israel during Netanyahu's long tenure as prime minister. Her book contributes to our understanding not only of contemporary Israel, but also of democratic decline and populism in general.
