Challenges to Separatism
This chapter examines the complex combination of separation and solidarity, both within each enterprise, and as affected by the overall political, social and economic context. The separation between the Jewish Yishuv and the Palestinian Arab population has been well recognized by all who studied the Jewish settlement in Palestine. The chapter deals with points of contact in the economic sphere and in the labor market; therefore, a somewhat more d…
Echoes of domestic silence
This article deals with the manner in which family and community in Mandate Palestine attempted to keep the criminal justice system from intervening in cases defined as ‘Family Honour Killing’. Drawing on criminal court cases, we argue that the familial, domestic and communal features of this crime and its social, predominantly rural, context were critical for the attempts to keep it within the community and to prevent state intervention by obstr…
Multiple Voices and the Force of Custom on Punishment
Colonial regimes tended to change existing legislation and judicial structures, and to introduce new legal systems. When the previous legal system was partly upheld, and especially when a number of legal systems were already in effect, a complex and plural system would emerge, often with contradictory principles and normative assumptions. As a result, the colonial government faced inevitable dilemmas regarding the priorities it should grant to th…
Becoming Israeli
In her conclusion Helman describes her book as an attempt to avoid both nostalgia and judgment, offering what she calls a “messy picture” of Israeli state and society during its first years of sove
Gender, Nationalism and Colonial Policy
The aim of this article is to discuss the way prostitution was perceived during the British rule in Palestine (1918–48), analyzing the differing perspectives of the British colonial authorities and the Jewish national community. The major concerns of the civil and military colonial authorities were focused on issues of ‘social hygiene’ and the trafficking in women and children. This often involved the transfer of both legislation and discourse fr…
Diversity in an Israeli intersectional analysis
Emotional politics in cleaning work
Emotional politics instil insecurity and doubt in working-class individuals. Researchers examining social degradation through (bad) employment or other stigma have demonstrated the exclusionary impact of this process. Some suggest that individuals respond to such emotional politics and other types of exclusion by identity-management strategies aiming at a sense of worth, whereas others have found self-isolation to dominate. Here we analyse the em…
Buy and promote the national cause
This article deals with patterns of consumption and of advertisement, as a field for the analysis of two major processes in the Palestinian society of Mandate Palestine: the growth of an urban middle class and the consolidation of the Palestinian national movement. The advertisements, sampled from the popular daily paper Filastin, analysed in the context of political and economic events, highlight the complex interplay between nationalism and cla…

Strategies of equalization, a neglected aspect of the split labour market theory
It is argued that though strategies of equalization are rare, they are an integral element of the split labour market [SLM] dynamics both in the causes that bring higher-priced labour to adopt these strategies and in the factors that often impede their success. Following Bonacich, three types of equalization strategies are identified and studied in the case of mandatory Palestine: 1. Establishing minimum standards as discussed in the Wage Commiss…

Expanding the Split Labor Market Theory
Palestine, under British mandatory rule since the end of the First World War, was an arena of confrontation between Arabs and Jews over land, immigration, and political power, as well as over place and position in the labor market. This article will deal with the split labor market of mandatoryPalestineand the actors within it. The analysis will make use of the split labormarket theory of Edna Bonacich. In her theory she posits a situation in whi…
From split labour market strategy to political co‐optation
Jewish immigration, aimed at creating a Jewish settlement in Palestine, and eventually a Jewish National Home (JNH) began in the latter part of the nineteenth century and expanded rapidly after the establishment of the British mandate, in the aftermath of the First World War. Jewish immigrants, in search of employment, confronted Arab labour in similar search. While Jewish labour was in need of work, being immigrants with no other means of making…

The Subcontracting of Cleaning Work
Casual labour is defined in this article as labour lacking security of income and employment. It is argued that such labour has remained an integral type of labour organization in modern capitalist economies, and has even been expanding both in advanced and declining sectors. The article studies in detail one specific process of casualisation-the transition to subcontracting in the case of cleaning work, as it took place in Israel. The major cons…
Conflict and Protest in Israeli Society
Economic Growth and Female Labour
This article aims to demonstrate the relation between the participation and location of women in the Israeli labour force and economic-structural processes central to the development of the Israeli economy. It begins with a discussion of the main features of the economic growth of Israeli society, indicating the implications of these features for female labour. The overall pattern of female participation in the labour force is then discussed, not…

The Rapid Economic Development of Israel and the Emergence of the Ethnic Division of Labour
This paper deals with the formation of the ethnic division of labour within the Jewish population in Israel during the rapid economic growth of the first decade of the existence of the state. It is argued that the division of labour stemmed from the specific patterns of economic development and the expanding capitalist relations of production. This approach is opposed to the functionalist view which argues that the position of the oriental immigr…
