This book describes and compares the circumstances and lived
experiences of religious minorities in Tunisia, Morocco, and Israel
in the 1970s, countries where the identity and mission of the state
are strongly and explicitly tied to the religion of the majority.
The politics and identity of Jews in Tunisia and Morocco and Arabs
in Israel are, therefore, shaped to a substantial degree by their
status as religious minorities in non-secular states. This
collection, based on in-depth fieldwork carried out during an
important moment in the history of each community, and of the
region, considers the nature and implications of each group's
response to its circumstances. It focuses on both the community and
individual levels of analysis and draws, in part, on original
public opinion surveys. It also compares the three communities in
order to offer generalizable insights about ways the identity,
political culture, and institutional character of a minority group
are shaped by the broader political environment in which it
resides. The project will appeal to scholars and students in the
fields of Middle Eastern and North African studies, Judaic studies,
Islamic Studies, minority group politics, and international
relations and the Arab-Israeli conflict.
