Israeli political scientist EHUD SPRINZAK

2: Israeli political scientist EHUD SPRINZAK. SPRINZAK has written a book called "The Ascendence of Israel's Radical Right" (Oxford University Press 1991). He follows the emergence in Israel since 1984 of a radical right-wing movement shaped by religious fundamentalism, extreme nationalism and aggresive anti-Arab sentiment. SPRINZAK believes that the influence of the radical right pervades Israeli politics and culture as well as Arab-Israeli relation. He sees Israel's radical right exercising increasing control over the Jewish settlements in the West Bank. SPRINZAK is a professor of political science at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
