- Title
Diversity Within a Show of Unity: Commemorating the Balfour Declaration in Israel (1917-2017).
- Abstract
The article analyzes the way in which Jewish and Israeli institutions commemorated the Balfour Declaration from its inception to the 100thanniversary in 2017 with particular emphasis on the 1967 Jubilee celebrations. In contrast to the government's desire to use the event as a vehicle to strengthen the state's legitimacy and validate the hegemony of the Labor-oriented Zionist leadership, the event reflected political and ideological fragmentation.
