The Privatization of Israel: The Withdrawal of State Responsibility Editors: Paz-Fuchs, Amir, Mandelkern, Ronen, Galnoor, Itzhak The book is the first to cover all areas of privatization in Israel and one of the first to do so in general, including state infrastructure, immigration policy, land, health, education, welfare, regulation, and policy design. As such, it offers a comprehensive volume for students, policy makers, and scholars interested in the economic, sociological, political, and legal perspectives of a major policy trend that has changed the face and character of the modern state. In addition, it is a vital contribution to those who have an interest in changes in Israeli society, politics, and economy. Amir Paz-Fuchs is Senior Lecturer in the School of Law at University of Sussex, UK, and Co-Director of the Privatization and State Responsibility Project at The Van Leer Institute, Jerusalem, Israel. Ronen Mandelkern is a Lecturer in the School of Political Science, Government, and International Relations at Tel Aviv University, Israel, and Researcher at The Van Leer Institute, Jerusalem, Israel. Itzhak Galnoor is Herbert Samuel Professor of Political Science (Emeritus) at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, and Senior Fellow at The Van Leer Institute, Jerusalem, Israel.
