Moked (Hebrew: מוקד, lit. 'Focus') was a left-wing political party in Israel.

Background[edit]

Moked came into existence on 25 July 1973 during the seventh Knesset, when the Maki parliamentary group (which had one seat, held by Shmuel Mikunis) was renamed Moked,[1] following its merger with the extraparliamentary Blue-Red Movement.

The new party ran in the 1973 elections, receiving 1.4% of the vote and winning one seat,[2] which was taken by Meir Pa'il, who was top of the party list. Mikunis (in second place), Yair Tzaban (fourth), Avishai Margalit (fifteenth) and Binyamin Temkin (twenty-third)[3] all failed to be elected. In October 1975 the party changed its name to Moked - for Peace and Social Compensation.[1]

Prior to the 1977 elections the party split in two. Some of the Maki faction merged into Hadash alongside Rakah, which had split from it in 1965, whilst the non-Communist members joined the Left Camp of Israel. The new party won two seats, with Pa'il taking one in rotation.
