The Extraterritorial Reach of American Class Actions
To what extent may an American class action entertain claims held by foreign class members and governed by foreign law? Thus far, courts and scholars have addressed this question by formulating a body of doctrines—in the domain of personal jurisdiction and class action certification preconditions—that is both incoherent and inefficient. Absent from this practice, however, is any discussion about whether the American class action mechanism itself …

A Multicultural Entrapment
The religion and state debate in Israel has overlooked the Palestinian-Arab religious communities and their members, focusing almost exclusively on Jewish religious institutions and norms and Jewish majority members. Because religion and state debates in many other countries are defined largely by minority religions' issues, the debate in Israel is anomalous. Michael Karayanni advances a legal matrix that explains this anomaly by referencing spec…
Multiculturalism as Covering
“Covering” is a descriptive theory concerning the existence of the gap between how a social-legal order is presented and how that social-legal order operates, in practice. In spite of the fact that the reality of the social-legal order can be repressive, it can nonetheless survive and persist if a cover in the form of a positive agenda is thrown over it. Thus far, covering has been associated with the agenda of assimilation—in the name of which t…
Tainted Liberalism
Groups in Context
Two separate Israeli Supreme Court cases permitted a Christian school in Nazareth to exclude a Muslim student who insisted on coming to school with her headscarf, and denied an Ashkenazi ultra-Orthodox school in Immanuel permission to exclude Sephardic students. Intriguingly, the Israeli Supreme Court reached these apparently contradictory holdings using the same liberal ideals of equality and commonality. The article analyzes both holdings to sh…
Dorsal subcoeruleus nucleus (SubCD) involvement in context-associated fear memory consolidation
The neurobiological mechanisms of emotional memory processing can be investigated using classical fear conditioning as a model system, and evidence from multiple lines of research suggests that sleep influences consolidation of emotional memory. In rodents, some of this evidence comes from a common finding that sleep deprivation from 0 to 6 h after fear conditioning training impairs processing of conditioned fear memory. Here, we show that during…
Two concepts of group rights for the Palestinian-Arab minority under Israel's constitutional definition as a "Jewish and democratic" state
The article identifies two distinct concepts of group rights in respect of the Palestinian-Arab minority that developed under Israel's constitutional definition as a “Jewish and democratic” state. One concept labeled as the “thin” concept pertains to the Palestinian-Arab minority as one national group, and a second concept labeled as the “thick” concept pertains to the Palestinian-Arab minority as a cluster of religious communities. In introducin…
Law and the Culture of Israel
Law and the Culture of Israel is a breathtaking journey into the ideologies that have come to shape Israeli law. Mautner masterfully connects powerful ideological currents in Israeli society and the juridical philosophy of the Israeli Supreme Court, from the establishment of the state of Israel until the present. As Mautner makes clear at the outset, the book perceives Israeli law “as an important arena in which the struggle over the shaping of J…
Choice of Law Under Occupation
Conflict of laws doctrines can evolve in a manner that accommodates special inter-jurisdictional relations, such as federal and confederate schemes of government. Apparently, such doctrines also evolve in order to accommodate yet another mode of inter-jurisdictional relation, namely that of occupation. This article seeks to explore the molding of Israeli choice-of-law doctrine in respect of civil disputes implicating litigants from the West Bank …
Multiculture Me No More! On Multicultural Qualifications and the Palestinian-Arab Minority of Israel
Multiculturalism has become a central theme in many academic disciplines from philosophy to education, social work and psychology, ultimately reaching political science and law. What seems to be unique in current studies on multiculturalism is not merely the observance and display of societies that happen to be diverse in terms of the religious, cultural, national and ethnic affiliation of their members. Rather, it is the central argument that su…
