Weeping at Vasermil’
This paper deals with the weeping of football players and fans during a game when some unexpected or extremely emotional event occurs, such as winning the championship, or being demoted to a lower division. Several decades ago, neither players nor fans dared to express their emotions by weeping in public, nor by hugging and kissing. Football (soccer) was considered 'a man's game' and men don't cry. In victory or in failure men restrain themselves…
Cui Bono? Arabs, football and state
Arab football clubs have been playing in the Israeli football league since the establishment of the State of Israel (1948) and have continued to do so to date, with a few clubs in the premier league.

This article presents the basic profiles of the committed Israeli fan. It is concluded that for these fans, the club is an 'overseas sweetheart,' far away but clos…
The Commodification of Football in Israel
It is argued that commodification is the major process determining the social development of sport in modern capitalist societies. In this light, the development of football in Israel from state-hood to the present is described. Two types of sport - 'political' and 'commodity' - are used to delineate this development. It is proposed that the commodification of football needs to be analyzed at both the club and the player levels. Commodification h…
Promises in the Promised Land
Immigration, proletarianization, and deproletarianization
Between Class and Nation
This important new study of Palestine in the years 1882 to 1948 looks at the formation of the Jewish working class and its pivotal and deliberate role in the forging of a nation. Drawing on historical studies as well as neo-Marxist theory, Professor Ben-Porat adds both empirical information and new critical perspectives to our understanding of class formation and of the unique historical circumstances attendant on the creation of modern Israel
