This perceptive study investigates the different ways in which the
state deals with various social groups through the mechanisms of
space. By means of case studies involving three social groups
within Israel's multicultural society - the Sephardim, the
Bedouin-Arab minority and the ultra-Orthodox community of Jerusalem
- the different roles played by political space in legal analysis
are revealed and analyzed. Issachar Rosen-Zvi then unearths the
unifying logic underlying the disparate legal treatment of
political space, brought to light by the case studies. The law
treats political space differently depending on the social group
involved, an attitude that, the author argues, can be traced back
to early Zionist thinking. He concludes that a reform of local
government law is required, to correct the segregated system of
political space and the separate and unequal distribution of
political power and economic resources that accompany it.
