Mo(ve)ments of Resistance
In Mo(ve)ments of Resistance, Grinberg summarizes both his own work and that of other political economists, providing a coherent historical narrative covering the time from the beginning of Socialist Zionism (1904) to the Oslo Accords and the neoliberalization of the economy (1994–1996). The theoretical approach of the book combines eventful sociology, path dependency, and institutional political economy. Grinberg argues that historical political…
Economic Liberalization and the Breakup of the Histadrut’s Domain
The most striking display of the Histadrut's authority occurred on May 1, 1980, when masses followed its call against the Likud government's economic liberalization and participated in one of the largest demonstration in Israel's history. This chapter analyzes the economic, political, organizational, and trade union-related transformations which led to the crisis of the Histadrut. The Histadrut was constructed from its inception as a proto-state …
Mo(ve)ments of Resistance
The J14 resistance mo(ve)ment
The article discusses the spontaneous popular movement J14 that erupted into the Israeli public sphere during the summer of 2011. Inspired by the Egyptian and Spanish movements, J14 was ignited by opposition to housing prices, later expanded into protests against neoliberal economic policies and socioeconomic inequalities. The concept of resistance mo(ve)ment is used to comprehend the peculiar intersection between the movement and moment of mass …
Resistance, politics and violence
This article analyzes violence within the framework of power relations and social conflict, aiming to comprehend the different dynamics that lead to escalation of violence or its containment by opening political space for representation. It distinguishes between the violence of dominant and non-dominant groups and explores the conditions of effective resistance that facilitate recognition and negotiation. The Israeli-Palestinian case provides an …
The Israeli-Palestinian Union
Politics and Violence in Israel/Palestine
The Israeli regime is a paradox. Considered a democracy, it has no recognized borders and controls the majority of Palestinians by military rule, while the resistance of non-citizen Palestinians exerts major influence over politics and policies. Drawing on detailed academic research and a broad knowledge of Israeli politics and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, this book narrates and analyzes the political developments of the Israeli-Palestinian …

Les élections israéliennes de 2006
A Silent Big Bang? A Historical Perspective on Israeli Democracy and the 2006 Elections If the 2006 election campaign seems to have left voters cold or indifferent, it is because they know very well that Israeli political parties are not the only ones making the decisions that will influence their fate: The Palestinians, neighboring countries, the United States, and even the European Union and the UN must be taken into account. A democratic elect…

A Historical Slip of the Tongue, or What Can the Arab–jewish Transportation Strike Teach Us About the Israeli–palestinian Conflict
Psychologists attribute great significance to slips of the tongue. In such moments, the train of normal speech is interrupted by a word that seems to be out of context. Yet analysts say that this interruption actually betrays an inner truth hidden, consciously or not, behind the screen of “normal” speech. I suggest here that the 1931 Arab–Jewish transportation strike against the Mandatory government in Palestine can be seen as a historical slip o…

The Crisis of Statehood
This paper proposes a conceptual distinction of political organizations from state and society, providing an enhanced theoretical framework in the analysis of state autonomy. This theoretical argument is based on an analysis of Israel's transition to statehood, and the development of the relations between the Israeli Labor Institutional Complex (LIC) and the state. Jewish labor organizations were established amidst the historical conditions of a …
Split Corporatism in Israel
Are Dualism and Corporatism Compatible Patterns of Political Economy? Some Implications of the Israeli Case
This paper discusses Goldthorpe's (1984) interpretation of corporatism and dualism as divergent tendencies of capitalism. In contrast, it is proposed that both are patterns of political economy representing partial solutions to the common problems of advanced capitalist democracies, primarily the damage caused by the business cycle to both capital and labour. The two patterns are not incompatible and may coexist, as in the case of Israel, with th…
Políticas sionistas y organizaciones obreras durante el período del mandato británico
En un trabajo anterior sostuve que la combinación de las teorías neocorporativistas sobre las relaciones entre las élites de las organizaciones obreras, los empleadores y el estado con las teorías del mercado dual de trabajo puede asistirnos en la construcción de un marco teórico más compuesto sobre las características de la economía política (Grinberg, 1991-A). Este artículo pretende fundamentar de un modo empírico la combinación teórica y le ag…
