2: Competing Commitments

  • Summary

  • In this second episode, we discuss a term we learned at summer camp that helps us understand what social and cultural psychologists Jonathan Haidt and Jesse Graham refer to as "Moral Foundations." In other words, what do we value, and how does the value someone is prioritizing impact their perspective? We focus especially on Israel's competing commitments between being a democracy and being a safe haven for the Jewish people._____Transcript here.NotesThe Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies Mahloket Matters Methodology (as well as Teen Curriculum and Adult Fellowship)Peter Beinart, namely: "Yavne: A Jewish Case for Equality in Israel-Palestine" and The Crisis of ZionismHistory of Jews in Israel and North Africa, link shared by Mariana PardesHow White Christian Influence is Reshaping Israel, link shared by Mariana PardesMoral Foundations Theory by Jonathan Haidt & Jesse GrahamElephant/Rider concept from Jonathan Haidt, author of The Righteous MindExtend Tours - Rory Michelle highly recommends!Perspectives Israel - No longer running, but Facebook group provides insights"Resilient listening" credited to EncounterNashira notes that maps of Israel she saw growing up did not distinguish between Israel and Occupied Territories.
