Architecture of Aspirations: The Jewish and Democratic Heart of Jerusalem

Discover how the Israel Supreme Court’s design serves as a “physical articulation” of the state’s democratic architecture and the values it aspires to uphold. From the “square” of human law to the “circle” of timeless justice, we explore a building rooted in Jerusalem stone yet open to the future. Join us at ‘Wandering Jews’ as we discuss how this landmark translates the ancient command “Justice, justice shall you pursue” into a modern judicial shield for all inhabitants.
