Show Notes
Israel has existed for over 75 years without a formal constitution, relying instead on a patchwork of Basic Laws and judicial tradition. This episode explores the historical compromises, the "Constitutional Revolution" of the 1990s, and the current crisis over judicial reform. Discover why this unique legal anomaly creates both flexibility and fragility in the world's only democracy without a single foundational document.
