Sweet and Sour Policy Entrepreneurship and the Case of the Food Labelling Law in Israel
Sweet and sour Policy entrepreneurship and the case of food labelling law in Israel
Globally, doctors have been warning policymakers and the public about the dangers of consuming products high in saturated fat, salt, and sugar, which contribute to obesity and various diseases. Consequently, numerous countries have adopted policies aimed at reducing the consumption of such products. This issue sparked public debate in Israel when, in 2016, the Israeli Minister of Health announced: "McDonald's out! Not in our country" and declared…

Days of (un) Rest
In spite of legal limitations, commerce in Israel on the Sabbath has expanded significantly in the past two decades. This secular development is counteracted by religious boycotts of stores operating on the Sabbath. Using Ulrich Beck's concept of sub-politics, we explain the shift away from the formal political realm, a result of a deadlocked political system that is no longer able to regulate boundaries between the religious and secular realm. A…
Boycotting for Sabbath
Such prosperity, whole emporia dedicated to cheeses, ribbons, Shaker furniture, is protection of a sort. This commercial wellbeing is robust and will defend itself to the last. It isn't rationalism
