Making Sense of Israeli Politics: The 2019 Election in Israel
Israel goes to the polls this April, go behind the headlines with Professor Reuven Hazan of the Hebrew University. “In Israel, the most important actor is the political party, not the individual politician,“ said Hazan. Explore the complexities of coalition-building and the intricate process of winning elections under a system that Professor Hazan calls “the opposite of U.S. politics.”
Hazan is internationally recognized for his work. He has held visiting faculty positions at Harvard and Emory University, served as political affairs commentator for CNN, BBC, FOX and NPR, and has been quoted in publications ranging from the Wall Street Journal to the Los Angeles Times.
This is a program of the American Friends of Hebrew University.
Cosponsored by Sherith Israel, AJC, SF JCRC and the Jewish Federation of San Francisco.

Our teens have the unique opportunity for dining & dialogue with our Rabbis. These dinners provide a deeper connection with our Rabbis and a chance to explore Judaism’s perspective on topics that interest them. Last year, “relationships” emerged as their theme; courage when dealing with moral problems that teens face, loneliness, navigating friendships, and asking for forgiveness in relationships were just a few things they discussed. Friday night Teens @ Studio dinners are from 6:00-8:30 pm, immediately following our community Kabbalat Shabbat service. -
