The 2022 Israeli elections stand out as a turning point in the countrys political history. Following a period of unprecedented political instability, the right-wing government formed following the electionsBenjamin Netanyahu's sixth governmentwas the most radical in Israels history. This book examines the 2022 Israeli elections through various theoretical perspectives and diverse research designs and data sources. The first part scrutinizes various aspects of Israeli democracy related to the elections. These include ideological and affective polarization, cleavages, voter turnout, involvement of citizens and civil organizations in election campaigns, and the nature of the government that was established following the elections. The second part of the book presents studies of parties that participated in the elections: those that declined (Labor), those that ascended (Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit), and those that ascertained their power (United Torah Judaism and Shas). A valuable addition to the Elections in Israel series, the bookwritten by leading scholars of Israeli politics and societytouches on key themes, including political personalization, polarization, populism, the radical right, party decline and adaptation, and democratic backsliding. The book will be of particular interest to students and researchers of Israeli politics and societyespecially relating to the events of 2023 and the war in Gazaas well as to social scientists interested in these political phenomena and their effects on democratic countries worldwide.
