Abstract:

It is no longer possible to achieve a simple consensus on many of the critical issues affecting the Israel-Diaspora relationship. We must learn to live with these differences by developing a new world Jewish polity through which disagreements can be resolved and the business of the Jewish people can be conducted. A new politics of Israel-Diaspora relations is therefore required.
