Content: Founded in 1948 amid bloodshed and the near devastation of the Jewish people after the Holocaust, modern Israel is something of a miracle. In a little more than fifty years of existence, the country has evolved into a significant economic and military power, both feared and resented by its Arab neighbors in the volatile Middle East. In Sticking Together, an Israeli and an American examine the major challenges confronting Israel within its own borders. These challengeswell known to Israelis but relatively little known elsewherehave emerged in part out of the country's experience with large-scale immigration. Like the United States, Canada, and Australia, Israel has tried to melt different peoples into a cohesive nation. While its citizens have forged common bonds under circumstances of adversity particularly constant threats from Palestinians and from neighboring Arab countries the fabric of Israeli society is torn by four major schisms: between immigrants and native Israeli; between Jews and Arabs; between secular and religious Jews; and between Jews of different cultural and national backgrounds (such as Ashkenzim and Sephardim). Gradually, and often with great difficulty, Israelis have learned to accommodate and respect the deep differences among its population. To borrow a culinary analogy, Israeli society, much like American society, has become more "salad bowl" than "melting pot." Sticking Together examines the many challenges confronting Israel's experience with pluralism, and in the process, draws lessons that might prove useful to other societies that struggle to accommodate the needs of highly diverse populations.

Series Statement: Integrating national economies

Content: This book, part of the Integrating National Economies series, examines the case for international harmonization of financial regulation and supervision. Richard J. Herring and Robert E. Litan analyze three basic questions that arise as financial institutions seek to broaden their global reach: What should be the rights of access to markets in different countries? Whose rules should apply? And, which regulatory bodies should enforce these rules? The authors provide a framework for understanding the measures to regulate international financial institutions that countries have agreed on so far. They project potential changes in the international marketplace and the implications of those changes for regulatory policy. They discuss how policymakers should respond and, given the relevant policy constraints, how they are likely to respond. The book concludes with proposals designed to emphasize discipline of financial institutions by the market rather than by regulators.

Content: A central goal of any economy is to achieve rapid and sustained growth. This cannot happen without continued innovation. This landmark Handbook brings together many of the world's legal scholars to examine features of the legal infrastructure that affect both innovation and growth. Individual chapters explore different legal subject areas, in most cases offering recommendations for rule changes that could accelerate growth, primarily in the context of the US economy. The introductory chapter provides a framework for these discussions and explains why it is time for legal scholarship and research to move in that direction.
