The "Great Reset" & World Economic Forum (WEF)

Overview

The "Great Reset" theory in Israel posits that the World Economic Forum (WEF) is using the state as a "pilot laboratory" for a new, post-democratic world order characterized by total digital surveillance and centralized economic control.1 Within the Pax Judaica framework, this represents:

• Officially: Israel’s integration into the "Fourth Industrial Revolution" as a global leader in AI and biotech.2
• Functionally: The implementation of "stakeholder capitalism" and high-tech social management tools.3
• Structurally: The transition toward a cashless, biometric-monitored society referred to as "Pax Silica."4
• Eschatologically: The fear of a "godless" technological era where human agency is replaced by AI-driven algorithms.5

Origins and Key Figures

The Davos Blueprint

The "Great Reset" was officially launched by Klaus Schwab in June 2020 as a response to the global disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic.6 Netanyahu, a frequent Davos attendee, has long championed the WEF's vision of merging physical and digital systems into the core of statecraft.7

Key figures:

• Klaus Schwab: The founder of the WEF and the primary antagonist in this narrative; he is viewed as the architect of the "New World Order."8
• Benjamin Netanyahu: Despite his nationalist rhetoric, he has been a frequent visitor to Davos and has spoke of the "sensitivity of Israel in terms of national security" as a driver for tech innovation.9
• Yuval Noah Harari: An Israeli historian whose discussions on "hackable humans" are cited by theorists as the philosophical blueprint for the Reset.10

Historical Development

The Pandemic "Laboratory" (2020–2022)

The defining moment for the theory was the 2021 deal between Israel and Pfizer. Netanyahu traded population-wide medical data for early vaccine access, a move viewed by critics as the first step in a "restratification" of society into digital health castes.11

The Digital Shekel Action Plan (2023–2025)

The Bank of Israel launched the "Digital Shekel Project" as an action plan for a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).12 By March 2025, a preliminary design was released for public comment, emphasizing "immediacy and finality" in digital transactions.13 Critics view this as the final tool for the WEF's goal of "programmable money" that can be turned off for political dissenters.14

The Rise of Pax Silica (2026)

As of 2026, the "Silicon Peace" has moved from a theory to an active geopolitical strategy.15 Israel utilizes AI-powered biometric facial recognition and automated vetting systems to manage regional stability, fulfilling the WEF's vision of a "resilient" and "interconnected" digital infrastructure.16

Core Concepts and Frameworks

Stakeholder Capitalism as "Corporate Socialism"

The "Great Reset" is often described by its critics as a move toward a Chinese-style "social credit" system.17 It vests control over the economy in a few favored corporations while eliminating small businesses deemed "non-essential" to the global reset.18

Biometric Security State

The theory emphasizes that biometric data is immutable and as unique as a person.19 The WEF’s own principles for CBDC interoperability acknowledge that digital identity systems could introduce "more harm than help" if privacy is not prioritized; yet, the implementation remains a priority for the central bank.20

Contemporary Manifestations

CBDC Global Interoperability

The WEF is actively coordinating over 100 countries to ensure that sovereign CBDC designs follow "interoperability principles."25 This global coordination is viewed by theorists as proof of a centralized, worldwide effort to replace the dollar with a unified digital system.26

Discussion Questions

Is the "Great Reset" a genuine economic reform or a blueprint for global surveillance?

How does the "Digital Shekel" impact the privacy of the average citizen?

Why did Netanyahu trade population health data for tech access?

Can "Stakeholder Capitalism" exist without a "Social Credit" system?
