Abstract
This chapter focuses on educational governance in Israel, charting events since the independence of the state that led to and cemented over the years its deep-rooted centralized governance. Furthermore, this chapter examines the hierarchical division of labor and the pandemic’s impact on the political culture of Israeli education. Ultimately, the historical moment created by the Covid-19 pandemic has exposed a cultural preference for centralized governance, which limits any pressure that the pandemic exerts toward decentralization.
