Between the Primordial and the Civil Definitions of the Collective Identity
This chapter analyzes the issue of collective identity and separates it into its component factors, seeking its roots and analyzing its main trends, indicating therein one of the central problems of Zionism. A 1939 Royal Institute of International Affairs report determined that "special historical circumstances caused the Jewish people to assume, at an exceptionally early date, some of the characteristics which have since been associated most clo…
Marginal At the Center
A self-proclaimed guerrilla fighter for ideas, Baruch Kimmerling was an outspoken critic, a prolific writer, and a “public” sociologist. While he lived at the center of the Israeli society in which he was involved as both a scientist and a concerned citizen, he nevertheless felt marginal because of his unconventional worldview, his empathy for the oppressed, and his exceptional sense of universal justice, which were at odds with prevailing views.…
The Palestinian People
In a timely reminder of how the past informs the present, Baruch Kimmerling and Joel Migdal offer an authoritative account of the history of the Palestinian people from their modern origins to the Oslo peace process and beyond. Palestinians struggled to create themselves as a people from the first revolt of the Arabs in Palestine in 1834 through the British Mandate to the impact of Zionism and the founding of Israel. Their relationship with the J…
Clash of Identities
By revisiting the past hundred years of shared Palestinian and Jewish-Israeli history, Baruch Kimmerling reveals surprising relations of influence between a stateless indigenous society and the settler-immigrants who would later form the state of Israel. Shattering our assumptions about these two seemingly irreconcilable cultures, Kimmerling composes a sophisticated portrait of one side's behavior and characteristics and the way in which they irr…
The Exhaustion of the Primary Zionist Program
This essay analyzes the writings of the prominent sociologist S. N. Eisenstadt on Israeli society, since the late 1940s until today, in comparison with his explorations into General Sociological themes. SNE was the founder of contemporary Sociology of Israel, and for decades stood as a dominant figure in Israeli Sociology. The essay explores how he started with a rigid functionalist approach and passed to search for more flexible paradigms, and h…
The Continuation of Israeli-Palestinian Conflict by “Academic” Means
Politicide
What is Sharon's plan? It is nothing less than the politicide of the Palestinian people: a combined military, political, diplomatic, and psychological process that has, as its ultimate goal, the dissolution of the Palestinians' existence as a legitimate socially, politically, and economically independent entity
The Failure of Israeli Academic and Public Sociologies
This article analyzes recent trends in Israeli public sociology and examines the extent to which Israeli sociologists have been engaged in the public realm. The basic presumption informing this essay is that since the 1967 War, Israeli society has been in a continuous state of crisis as a result of an inability to make decisions regarding the Occupied Territories. This crisis and its societal consequences have not been incorporated into Israeli a…

Jurisdiction in an Immigrant-Settler Society
The major dilemma presented in this article is how a state that officially and constitutionally defines itself as “Jewish and democratic” relates to two categories of Arab minorities: (a) the Arab citizens of Israel and (b) the Palestinians who have resided in the occupied territories since the 1967 war. The analysis will focus on both the legislative and judicial levels, as they reflect the Israeli state's policy toward minority groups more than…
The Invention and Decline of Israeliness
This thought-provoking book, the first of its kind in the English language, reexamines the fifty-year-old nation of Israel in terms of its origins as a haven for a persecuted people and its evolution into a multi- cultural society. Arguing that the mono-cultural regime built during the 1950s is over, Baruch Kimmerling suggests that the Israeli state has divided into seven major cultures. These seven groups, he contends, have been challenging one …
The formation of Palestinian collective identities
L'A. propose une analyse historique de la formation de l'identite collective palestinienne durant les periodes ottomane et du mandat britannique, centrant son etude sur trois questions : 1. Il examine la creation, l'invention, la production et reproduction de l'identite palestinienne, en tant qu'identite distincte d'autres identites arabes, et par rapport aux contextes historique, social, culturel, et politique de la region, considerant aussi les…

Between Celebration of Independence and Commemoration of Al-Nakbah
When The Jubilee year of the founding of the State of Israel arrived, the market was flooded with books, periodicals, special issues, TV documentaries and albums marking the 50th anniversary. As expected, some of these products stimulated sharp controversies, as a part of recent debates over Israeli historiography, collective memory, and identity. Perhaps the most controversy was focused on the Channel One (public TV) series titled “Tkuma” (“Revi…

Patterns of militarism in Israel
Most of the subjects concerned with Israel, such as the location of the military and militaristic culture, are heavily distorted in comparison to other themes prevalant in the discourse and the debates in the social sciences, very much like the other issues linked with the Jewish-Arab conflict and Jewish-Arab relations (Kimmerling, 1992). Ideological and value loaded considerations blur the issue, making even the usage of the term 'militarism' in…

Some Social Implications of Military Service and the Reserves System in Israel
An uneasy relationship between the army and the society within which it operates is a situation characteristic of most contemporary, relatively developed countries. The major tensions crystallize around three foci: first, the incompatibility between the continuous decline in the centrality and salience of the national security issue and the increased allocation of human andmaterial resources to the military institutions. Second, the societal dile…
State Building, State Autonomy and the Identity of Society
Into the conventional framework of the state civil-society relationship, which usually includes the state's autonomy and the state's strength, this paper adds a dimension - the identity of the collectivity. The collective identity is from one side the common 'symbolic space' for both the state and the actors of the civil society, and from the other side the 'battlefield' between the state, the society and the different components of the civil soc…

Individual Strategies of Adopting Collective Identities
This paper combines several sociological perspectives in order to examine the relative importance of different social identity components in Jewish Israeli society. Several theoretical and methodological innovations are made towards using identity as a key concept in understanding how diverse understandings of social order can exist simultaneously within a single societal entity. Analysing a sample of 1200 Jewish Israelis we find that family iden…

New immigrants as a special group in the Israeli armed forces
New Immigrants are an important special group in the Israeli society. Despite the steady decline in the number of immigrants arriving in Israel, immigration has retained great symbolic importance and occupies a central place in collective consciousness and goal articulation. The public displays relative tolerance to their unfamiliarity with Israeli ways and their lack of knowledge of the Hebrew language. The length of military service for new imm…

The Interrupted System
According to all accepted criteria, Israel has developed a refined universe of social science research, yet the sociology of war, in a society whose brief history is described by rounds of war, is utterly lacking. Baruch Kimmerling's monumental work is an effort to correct this glaring omission. He does so by calling upon the best in survey research along with a deep reexamination of the classical social science literature on conflict and consens…
