Summary / Abstract (Note) | From its establishment until 2013, the issue of Daylight Saving Time (DST) featured on Israel’s political agenda with the religious sector opposing by and large its implementation as an infringement on religious rituals and a disruption of the Hebrew-Jewish calendar and secularists presenting their struggle for DST as a fight of progress (light) against reactionary forces (dark). |
