Publishers Summary

Israel at 60 is as prosperous and secure as it has ever been, but its future looks increasingly uncertain. Can it resolve its problems in time?

Also in this special report:

Fenced in - Short-term safety is not providing long-term security, and sometimes works against it.

To fight, perchance to die - Policing the Palestinians has eroded the soul of Israel's "people's army". 


Miracles and mirages - A strong economy built on weak fundamentals.


A house of many mansions - Israeli Jews are becoming more disparate but also somewhat more tolerant of each other.

Hanging on - The settlers are regrouping from their defeat in Gaza.

How the other fifth lives - Arab-Israelis are increasingly treated as the enemy within.

A systemic problem - Many of Israel's troubles stem from its political system. But can politicians fix it?

The next Zionist revolution - Zionism is nearly twice as old as Israel. The debate about what it means continues to shape the country.
