What does police violence against minorities, or violent clashes
between minorities and the police tell us about citizenship and its
internal hierarchies? Indicative of deep-seated tensions and
negative perceptions; incidents such as these suggest how
minorities are vulnerable, suffer from or are subject to police
abuse and neglect in Israel. Marked by skin colour, negatively
stigmatized or rendered security threats, their encounters with
police provide a daily reminder of their defunct citizenship.
Taking as case studies the experiences and perceptions of four
minority groups within Israel including Palestinian/Arab citizens,
ultra-Orthodox Jews and Ethiopian and Russian immigrants, Ben-Porat
and Yuval are able to explore different paths of citizenship and
the stratification of the citizenship regime through relations with
and perceptions of the police in Israel. Touching on issues such as
racial profiling, police brutality and neighbourhood neglect, their
study questions the notions of citizenship and belonging, shedding
light on minority relationships with the state and its
institutions.
