Criteria of sociocultural adjustment
Is Israel One
This book delves into Israeli society where internal divides have emerged from divergent value systems in a context of powerful globalization, immigrant–society behavior, and a sharp majority–minority division. A short but hectic experience, Jewish nationalism draws its vitality from reformulations of ancestral symbols which permeate the dynamics of the confrontations of the dominant culture and numerous parties, all contesting its exigencies. Is…
Israeli Morale During the Gulf War
This paper reports findings of a study on the influence of the Gulf War on the morale level of Israeli men and women. Having at our disposal panel data from the pre-war period, we were able to measure the changes in morale over time at the individual level by means of a standardized questionnaire. On the basis of previous theory and research, we expected that individual morale would be affected by proximity to risk areas and by gender. The result…
Marital crisis and therapy in their social context
Israeli Democracy Under Stress
The authors explore the increasing ungovernmability of the Jewish state, its obsolete electoral system and cynical coalition politics, its overburdened judiciary, its stagnant economy, and related issues. While highly critical, they present the most comprehensive effort to date to provide a scholarly foundation for political reform in Israel
Trends in Israeli Democracy
Questioning whether public support for democracy can be sustained during periods of crisis, the authors examine the attachment to democratic values and institutions in Israel, a country experiencing ongoing internal and external tensions
To What Extent Can the School Reduce the Gaps Between Children Raised by Divorced and Intact Families
This study deals with the extent and conditions under which the school can compensate children for the deficit in parental investment due to the divorce of their parents. Pair matched samples of one- and two-parent children from seven elementary schools, located near Tel Aviv, Israel, are compared. Children raised by divorced mothers in regular schools turned out to have lower scholastic achievements as well as lower popularity (among peers) than…
The Impact of Social and Economic Factors on the Size of Israeli Jewish Families
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of several variables in predicting and explaining actual fertility in Israel. From the wealth of literature on the subject we shall select five key variables often presented as affecting birthrate: income level of education duration of marriage ethnic origin and religiosity. The ways in which each of these are connected to birthrate are complex and depend on the socio-cultural setting. We …
Equality and Functional Imperatives
Equality remains a popular ideal but its feasibility in a modern and affluent social framework is often doubted. The Israeli kibbutz is a case of particular interest in this coIltext since it underwent, during the last generation, processes of rapid industrialization, occupational diversification and growing affluence. To what extent was an egalitarian distribution of scarce resources preserved under these circumstances? This issue is discussed i…
Self-Presentation During Courtship
Classified matrimonial advertisements (c. m. a.) are one of several ways used by courting individuals to present themselves to prospective mates. By accumulating and analysing 1800 such c.m.a., which appeared in a leading Israeli daily newspaper, over 35 years, we aspired to learn something about the changing ideals and perception of husbands and wives in Israel. Our main findings were: the discrepancy between the attributes of desirable brides a…
The sociology of the family in Israel
This survey of the sociological study of the Israeli family, starting with studies of the early 1950s, reflects the dynamic development of the Israeli reality as well as the patterns of its sociological analysis. The common thread through the studies of the 1950s and 1960s is the perception of the family as reflecting communal and individual needs such as the loneliness of the pioneers or the integration of ethnicities. Later studies emphasized i…
Is Resource Theory Equally Applicable to Wives and Husbands
This paper argues that resources at the wife's disposal have a considerable impact on her share in marital decisions while the husband's resources are not positively associated with his decision-making power. Data for this research were collected from interviews with 166 married couples randomly selected from the Urban Jewish Population of Haifa, Israel. The issue is examined in the light of our own as well as previously published empirical data.…

Commercial Matchmaking in Modern Israel
Theoretically it might be argued that commercial matchmaking rationalizes the process of mate selection. A modern marriage-broker has at his disposal more information about prospective mates than a normal person would come across during a life-time of courting. A close look at 10 matchmaking offices in Tel Aviv, Israel, reveals some of the social and individual predicaments combined with this apparent rationality. Even though courting is often vi…

Women in the Kibbutz
The Dynamics of Ethnic Inequalities
Three alternative trends of ethnic or racial inequality are formulated: diminishing inequality, rising inequality and stabilizing inequality. The last trend is hypothesized to hold for industrial ‘welfare states’ which lack both blatant discrimination against ethnic groups and systematic efforts to close the ethnic gaps. A comprehensive study of inequalities in income, occupation, education and power between Oriental (non-European) and Ashkenazi …
