      ABSTRACT

      In the miniseries, Aryeh Deri expressed many of the characteristic arguments of the critical mizrahi discourse, and during the election campaign he had referred to the "ethnic demon" and the open mizrahi wound. Gal Levy offers a political account of Shas and mizrahi politics in the wake of the neoliberal revolution. It opens with a brief discussion of mizrahi politics and the rise of Shas within the framework of the multiple citizenship paradigm. It proceeds to examine Shas in the 2013 elections campaign, and returns in conclusion to the interconnection between the social protest, the elections, and "new politics," and discusses, ultimately, what has happened to mizrahi representation in the new political alliances of 2013. In the context, the multiple-citizenship paradigm has helped to explain Shas's success based on its ability to maneuver among the different citizenship discourses and to claim its place and representation within the national-ethnic discourse.
