Jerusalem 1980: The Basic Law and a City's Status

7 min•6 juni 2026

In July 1980, the Israeli Knesset passed the Basic Law: Jerusalem, Capital of Israel, declaring the unified city as the capital of the state. This episode explores the political and legal maneuverings behind the law, the international outcry that followed, and the UN Security Council Resolution 478. Lucas and Luna discuss the roles of Menachem Begin, the Knesset's decision to annex East Jerusalem, the responses from Jordan, the PLO, and the United States, and the lasting impact on Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations. They also touch on the earlier 1967 Law and Administration Ordinance and the 1947 UN Partition Plan. How did a single piece of legislation reshape the city's future and entrench its contested status?
