Abstract
Back in 1849, Israel’s Prime Minister at the time, David Ben Gurion, promised he would create a constitution to ensure people’s civil rights within six months. Nonetheless, 65 years later, such promise is yet to be accomplished. The prior has fueled the conflict between anti-Zionist Orthodox groups and the citizens who identify with the State. This text focuses on Israel’s statu quo and the democratic instability resulting from the tension between secularism and religion.
