Abstract
As much as any other modern nation-state, the State of Israel is a product of invented tradition (Hobsbawm, 1983) and has institutionalized itself by establishing public education, a standardized legal system, and a secular equivalent to the church (Ben-Amos and Bet-El, 1999; Gellner, 1997; Handelman, 1990).
