Israeli Constitutional Law Is A Sphere Of Many Contradictions And Traditions. Growing Out Of British Law Absorbed By The Legal System Of Mandate Palestine, Israeli Constitutional Law Has Followed The Path Of Constitutional Law Based On Unwritten Constitutional Principles. This Book Evaluates The Development Of The Israeli Constitution From An Unwritten British-style Body Of Law To The Declaration Of The Basic Laws As The De Facto Israeli Constitution By The Supreme Court And On Through The Present Day. The Book Is Divided Into A Chronological History, Devoted To A Description Of The Process Of Establishing A Constitution; And A Thematic One, Devoted To The Review And Evaluation Of Major Constitutional Issues That Are Also The Subject Of Discussion And Research In Other Countries, With Emphasis On The Unique Characteristics Of The Israeli Case.
This book investigates the evolution of Israeli constitutional law from its origins in British Mandate principles to the modern implementation of Basic Laws as a de facto constitution. Gideon Sapir, a legal scholar, utilizes historical analysis and comparative legal theory to evaluate how Israel transitioned from an unwritten constitutional framework to its current judicial structure. The text provides a systematic review of the legislative processes and judicial interventions that have defined the state's legal identity.
