General and Final Conclusion

Final Conclusion


We concluded that the I.D.F does influences people’s life enormously. What we observed is that the experiences lived during the service make people think their values in a manner they haven’t done before and that might cause them to radicalize their point of view of what they believed previously.

The investigation, in the other hand, couldn’t prove that the army changes the political point of view to the left or to the right, but it might occur. To precisely state that further and deeper researches are needed.

We suggest that this research be continued, and the next steps are the collect of more data, in both open and close researches with different questions, focusing on the other influences the I.D.F may have produced in people’s life other than political. The open researches should be made with people that are known to have changed their political views, because this can generate new directions in how, if it does happen, the I.D.F influences people’s life.
