‘Common Ground’: Agreed Road Map for Long-Term National Paradigms

‘המחנה המשותף’: מתווה מוסכם לפרדיגמות לאומיות ארוכות-טווח

A Strategic thinking process for the state of Israel is presented.
The preliminary stage is based on interviews of 32 prominent Israelis, from diverse walks of life, we find a wide common ground in considering the ‘Declaration of Independence’ (1948) to be Israel’s ‘organizing principle’ for the coming decades.

Updating the ‘rules of the game’ and broad sense of security are the needed enablers.

The project leads to a process of re-consideration of paradigms in education, Jewish-Democratic state, moral market economy, ‘Mamlakhtiut’ – statehood, Israel in the Middle East, and foreign affairs.
