Annexation and the Erosion of Israeli Democracy

The erosion of democratic institutions in Israel over the past decade has coincided with the rise of a public campaign for annexation - euphemistically called "extending sovereignty" - over the same time. The two are highly connected; democratic erosion helps enable annexation in the West Bank, and annexation will in turn continue the cycle of chipping away at Israeli democracy. At the same time, these trends will damage Israel’s foreign relations with key global partners.
