Abstract

Golan-Nadir presents the puzzle of the absence of public pressure against current marriage policy in the Israeli case. The chapter contains two sections. The first section aims to establish the existence of a disparity between the official religious marriage policy and public preference on marriage. The data supporting this claim includes existing public opinion surveys, state statistics, and the findings of the 2016 Public Opinion Survey on Marriage Policy designed and conducted for this research. Next, using a newspaper archival review and identifying thematic clusters, this chapter further shows that this enduring gap, however, has not generated public demand/pressure for policy change in this realm. This is despite the fact that, evidently, Israeli civil society is active in other realms in state–religion relations.
