Israel: What's a Radical Feminist Doing in a Place Like This?

These are Marcia Freedman's personal observations of the fate of feminism in Israel. Her observations reveal that the current emphasis on "machismo" could spell the decline of feminist gains, and she concludes by showing the country's need for a strengthened feminism and a realistic cooperation between men and women. Freedman was a member of the Knesset in Jerusalem at the time she made these observations.
