Between conflict and contribution
Wikipedia is one of the most influential platforms for digital knowledge production, organized around community-based consensus and open participation. These ideals are increasingly strained in politically sensitive areas, raising questions about minority editors’ inclusion and their ability to participate meaningfully in consensus-building processes. This study examines how Jewish editors experience contributing to English Wikipedia and how thei…
Dismantling the master’s house with his own tools
The prevailing antiaging beauty industry equates beauty and attractiveness with youth, especially in the case of women. Efforts to artistically challenge common conceptions of women’s representations are often based on undermining the mindset of the Western socio-economic system, with its emphasis on consumption and commodification. Reflecting Audre Lorde’s thought that “the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house,” various feminis…
Triggered Wounds
In this study, we examined the challenges of Israeli women survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV) who had left abusive relationships and lived independently during the Swords of Iron War. Based on two focus groups with 24 women, findings revealed intersecting personal and collective vulnerabilities. Three central themes emerged: (a) emotional and physical struggles, including retraumatization, anxiety, and stress-related symptoms; (b) famil…
Women's Ways to Voice Online
The emergence of new and open platforms in new media raises the question of whether digital literacy can empower women to overcome the silencing hegemonic mechanisms prevalent in Israeli society and strengthen their voices in public discourse. This qualitative action research examines the processes of Israeli women's transition to online activism through two rounds of interviews before and after an extended workshop on digital literacy, centered …
Reclaiming Agency
Purpose Although shelters represent a primary instrument for governmental intervention in the worldwide endeavor to aid women survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV), an alternative approach to assist such women involves establishing community-based programs. In this qualitative study, we examined an Israeli pilot of a community-based program offering professional support to women survivors of IPV, using an empowerment model. Questions regar…
Never Ending Stories? Hebrew Writers' Creative Journey in the Second Half of Life
This qualitative study explored the relationship between creativity, time, age, and the literary world among 16 award‐winning Israeli writers in the second half of their lives. Based on data collected through in‐depth interviews with the participants, the findings indicate that the writers' creativity in the second half of life was linked to Preservation , Growth , and Decline , leading to four interrelated dimensions: (a) preserving youth throug…
Beauty work or beauty care? Women’s perceptions of appearance in the second half of life
The prevailing cultural emphasis on women's attractiveness being tied to youth raises questions about how women perceive their appearance in the second half of life. The current qualitative study addresses this issue by posing two questions: how do women over fifty perceive and describe changes in their appearance? And how do they cope with these changes? Five focus group meetings with 19 Israeli women aged 54-76 were held to examine the issue. T…
Old, Yet Green – the Prioritization of the Future of Youth in Older-Age-Based Environmental Movements
Scrubbing away the differences? Identity and othering in Israeli cleanliness education, past and present
This article examines latent ideologies in the teaching of health and cleanliness in the Israeli educational system. It compares second-grade school readers before and after the turn of the millennium, posing three questions: What pedagogical approaches were used in both periods to instil the values of health and cleanliness? In what ways have the topics of health and cleanliness changed over time? How has the teaching of these topics acknowledge…
To voice or not to voice? Israeli women activists' paths to voice
“What Is Right and Real – Is the Storytelling”
The stereotypical view of creativity as an emblem of youth, and old age as a signifier of decline can hold grave consequences for filmmakers in the second half of life, as this misconception can result in negative attitudes, a decline in media coverage, and less funding for film production. Thus, ageing male film directors might face a collisional intersection, when the gender-based status that provides social privileges, meets with older age-bas…
The Ethos of the Auteur as Father of the Film Craft – On Masculinity, Creativity and the Art of Filmmaking
Research of the world of cinema often deals with the manner in which movies replicate the social balance of power, creating a symbolic order based on an essentially masculine world-view that puts the man at its center. The price women pay for this phallocentric approach – their persistent objectification in cinema, and the very small number of female screenwriters and directors – has become a much-discussed topic in contemporary research. However…
An old mind in a young body
In a neoliberal society that sanctifies youth, the devaluation that accompanies old age among women joins hands with gendered power relations to produce intersectional oppression. Accordingly, the available possibilities for challenging this intersection in fantasy films carry a particular interest from a feminist perspective. This qualitative study examines the intersection of gender and age through the analysis of Dong-hyuk’s comic fantasy Miss…
I was born a man - I'm close to myself”
For Better or Worse
Although much has been written to date on gender equality, on personal liberty within the family, and on the burden of family caregivers of spouses, the manner in which these different aspects intersect and impact each other has gone largely unexamined. How do relationships of power and dependency interact? How do they affect the pursuit of happiness and the ability to maintain personal liberty within the family in times of sickness and poor heal…
Strangers in a seemingly open-to-all website
Purpose Throughout the years, many scholarly answers were given to the question regarding the gender bias in Wikipedia. However, the research literature seldom explores how different barriers are interconnected and rarely focuses on what prevents women who initially declared their interest from eventually participating in the website. The purpose of this paper is to deal with this lacuna and explore the gender bias in Wikipedia through examining …
