Description

Leora Bilsky's Transformative Justice: Israeli Identity on Trial is a landmark study that explores the complex relationship between justice and democracy in Israel. By analyzing four significant trials, Bilsky examines how competing narratives shape our understanding of political trials and their significance beyond national borders.

The book draws on philosophy, law, history, and rhetoric to shed light on the meaning of political trials and the values of liberalism. Through her analysis, Bilsky offers a bold new perspective on the politics of justice, revealing the ways in which Israel's history of social and ideological conflicts in the courtroom can inform our understanding of this critical issue.

Written by Professor Leora Yedida Bilsky, Transformative Justice is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersections between law, identity, and democracy. This book will be of interest to anyone seeking to understand the complexities of justice and its role in shaping democratic societies.
