Revision as of 21:47, 9 July 2007
Template:MKs Yitzhak Moda'i (Template:Lang-he, born 17 January 1926, died 22 May 1998) was an Israeli politician, who served five terms in the Israeli Knesset for Likud and then the New Liberal Party over the course of a 20 year career.
Moda'i was a member of the now-defunct Liberal Party, which later merged into the Likud. He was a member of several Likud cabinets, and served as minister without portfolio, finance minister, justice minister and energy and infrastructure minister. He is best known for the 1985 economic stabilization plan that severely curtailed Israel's hyperinflation of the early 1980s, which he, as finance minister, devised together with then-Prime Minister Shimon Peres.
In 1990 he and four other MKs (all of them former members of the Liberal Party) broke away from Likud to form the Party for the Advancement of the Zionist Idea, later renamed the New Liberal Party. The party failed to cross the electoral threshold in the 1992 elections and Moda'i lost his seat.
