It discusses such contemporary issues as the Arab uprising and the Israeli government's ambivalence in dealing with it; the government's inability to come to a permanent solution concerning the territories occupied in 1967; and the lack of a clear-cut consensus in the 1988 elections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy comparing these and other modern issues to those of ancient Israel, Sharkansky shows that Israel's deeply-rooted problems as a nation are likely to continue, occasionally punctuated by violent outbursts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ira Sharkansky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0791405494\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780791405499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/03\/1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs","brand":"Ira Sharkansky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453386502399,"sku":"9780791405499","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7570af84-ecbe-4337-bc40-4b4b953a779a.jpg?v=1777299975","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ancient-and-modern-israel-ira-sharkansky-9780791405499","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
