Quick takeaways

  • Tel Aviv represents a cosmopolitan, inclusive, and secular narrative in Israel, while the rest of the country leans towards a more atavistic and primal approach, reflecting a cultural battle between nationalism and the preservation or extinction of Judaism's specialness.
  • Austria's historical prominence as the Austrian Empire spanned over 30 centuries until 1866, and Vienna served as the intellectual capital of Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries, highlighting Austria's imperial past.
