From its trendy urban centers to its ancient deserts, Israel's history is based on a rich heritage of traditions and contradictions. It is known as a startup nation, with hospitable and warm interpersonal relationships and a steady high-ranked happiness level. Yet, its deep politicaldisparities and past traumas ripple beneath the surface of its culture, with unyielding existential threats looming from its neighbors and from within its borders. The turbulent Israeli setting-characterized by salient existential threats, issues of identity, and dialectic world views-serves as amicrocosm that illustrates how we manifest the fundamental human motivation to find meaning in life. Finding Meaning incorporates a conceptual framework for examining the post-modern, sociocultural Israeli scene that facilitates and triggers the search for meaning among its citizens. Combining theory, data, and illustrative case studies, this book unravels a variety of significant and fundamentalmanifestations of a quest for meaning under existential duress, carefully navigating the cultural context of post-modern Israel. Written by experts in these areas, this book offers fresh insights into this quest by suggesting a new construct that weaves together the personal and culturalenvironment, highlights several key processes and dimensions that appear to characterize this search, and offers broad perspectives that contribute to the research at these intersections. Finding Meaning is a pioneering book that offers an insightful, innovative, and hopeful lens for readers interested in meaning and contemporary Israeli society. | Finding Meaning by Ofra Mayseless, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
