"The Globalization of Israel is essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand contemporary Israeli society or current events in Israel. Ram presents us with an original theoretical standpoint (globalization) which should be integrated into our academic analysis of the world in general and of Israel in particular." - Ben Herzog, MESA Bulletin (44-1 Summer 2010)
