{"product_id":"ben-nachman-yehuda-theocratic-democracy-9780199734863","title":"Theocratic Democracy","description":"In Theocratic Democracy, Nachman Ben-Yehuda examines more than fifty years of media-reported unconventional and deviant behavior by members of the Haredi community. Ben-Yehuda finds not only that this behavior has happened increasingly often over the years, but also that its most salient feature is violence--a violence not random or precipitated by situational emotional rage, but planned and aimed to achieve a theocratic society in Israel. He shows how the political structure that accommodates the strong theocratic and secular pressures Israel faces is effectively a theocratic democracy, allowing citizens with different worldviews to live under one umbrella of a nation-state without tearing the social fabric apart.","brand":"OUP US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53768227258710,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/ben-nachman-yehuda-theocratic-democracy-9780199734863","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
