The Arab Minority in Israel's Economy considers the Arab population
as an integral, albeit disadvantaged, part of Israeli society.
Using data from a thirty-year period, the book looks at Arab
participation in the economy, especially in the labor market,
showing how significant socioeconomic inequality persists despite a
fundamental tenet of Israel's declaration of independence asserting
equality of political and social rights of all its citizens. Taking
an ethnic competition perspective, the authors explore the extent
of inequality, uncovering the institutional and social processes
that influence it. They examine the role of local labor markets and
individual human resources, giving special attention to the growing
labor force participation of Arab women. They also consider the
gains of the majority Jewish population that have resulted from
competition and economic discrimination against Arabs. Although the
Arab community in Israel has been studied in the past, this book is
unique in its detailed analysis of employment activity within and
outside of the Arab sector and in examining both Arabs and Jews
within the stratification system. The book fosters deeper
understanding of Israeli society and of multi-ethnic societies more
generally.
