Foreword The Problem of Generations in the Kibbutz and Possible Explanations The Ideology/Reality Gap and the Mission of the Kibbutz Views Towards Israel: The Jewish Diaspora and the Arabs The Kibbutz Definition of Socialism and Israeli Society Political Ideology and the Effect of Education on its Continuity Factors Influencing Ideological Continuity Fulfilling Individual Needs in the Kibbutz Workplace Educational and Training Ambitions--Expectat…
The Rise of the Ideas of the Welfare State
It is customarily assumed that welfare-state thinking can only appear as a product of the sharpening conflict between revolutionary socialists and the defenders of the status quo; the case of Tom Paine proves otherwise. Although he defended private enterprise (to the exclusion of large landed property), he developed a forgotten early version of a comprehensive system of public welfare in the second part of his The Rights of Man and in his Agraria…
The Redesign of Working Time: Promise or Threat
Theories of Gender Equality: Lessons from the Israeli Kibbutz
Because the Israeli kibbutz is innovative in collective ownership, production, consumption, and child care, and in part also because it is erroneously assumed to have once had a gender-egalitarian ideology and structure, it is taken to be a valid test case for many theories explaining or justifying gender inequality or gender equality. This article argues that the kibbutz cannot serve as a test case for theories that blame inequality on the famil…
Sexism in Science
Comparing the Work Attitudes of Women and Men
Worker Productivity: Myths and Reality
Better conditions, improved pay, better personal relations, improved training -- these are some of the things that improve worker productivity, but in a very complex, difficult to define way. Macarov delves into these issues, exhorting researchers to make greater distinctions between hard work and good work, work in different jobs, and differing concepts of job satisfaction. He discusses the work personality and the future of the work ethic as in…

The Israeli Experience in the Democratization of Work Life
Many people hold the vague notion that Israel can serve as a model for more democratic forms of work life or so-called "industrial democracy." Others debunk these notions by pointing out the relatively small size of Israel's social experiments, as well as their weaknesses. It seems to me that the first step in making the discussion of this point more rational is to clarify the multiple use of the concept "in dustrial democracy. " There exist at l…

Man Incorporate: The Individual and His Work in an Organized Society by Carl B. Kaufman (review)
TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE Book Reviews 649 tion. It must undertake technological change in order to survive, but change is destructive of its stability and, thus, innovation is resisted. Another contributor carefully analyzes the anatomy of the total innovation process, suggesting that the organizational structure of a company be carefully designed to fit the model of its technology flow. The final essay is quite apart from the others. It deals with…
Man Incorporate: The Individual and His Work in an Organized Society
The Worker and the Media
The mass media have aroused concern and discussion by social scientists-both as media of political persuasion and as conveyors of mass culture. The first aspect-the media as means of political persuasion-arose as a direct result of the spectacular use of mass propaganda by the Fascists. It has since become a component of the continuing discussion about the means of modernization of underdeveloped societies. The second aspect-the media as conveyor…
