Security Threatened is the first major analysis of the interactions among opinion, politics, and policy in that period, based on opinion surveys of thousands of adult Jews carried out in the 33-year period between 1962 and 1994.The author documents the public division during these years between militant hardliners and those maintaining more conciliatory security positions.Politics, not psychology, will be the focus, and it is expected that most works will deal with mass public and democratic politics, although work on nondemocratic publics will not be excluded. |

| Publisher Description: Public opinion has played a crucial role in the transitions from war to peace in Israel since the 1967 Six Day War. Security Threatened is the first major analysis of the interactions among opinion, politics and policy in that period, based on opinion surveys of thousands of adult Jews conducted between 1962 and 1994. The public divided during those years into militant hardliners and more conciliatory security positions, and power either shifted between, or was shared by, the Likud and Labor parties. |
