In the last three decades, Israel has been undergoing a dramatic
revolution: the hegemonic secular Zionist ethos that founded it is
cracking, and various sub-groups seek to realize their specific
identity in the public sphere. Ultra- Orthodox, Arabs, Mizrahim,
immigrants from the former Soviet Union, and others are rejecting
the peripheral status that had ranked them according to their
proximity to the principles of this ethos and insist on their own
voice. Israeli society has consequently become a seething
entanglement of confl icts and identity struggles. This book is one
of the first attempts to examine various aspects of the current
multicultural transformation of Israeli society. It deals with
fundamental questions such as the character of Israel as a Jewish
state, the status of minorities and their right to
self-realization, and the farreaching influence of the
multicultural turn on a variety of legal and social dimensions.
Theoretical questions are reconsidered in light of specific case
studies in Israel, off ering a significant contribution to the
interdisciplinary discussion of multicultural theories and their
application.
