This collection of articles, all being published in English for the
first time, focuses on the child-rearing and educational practices
of the Kibbutz, and the effect they have on children. Unlike other
Kibbutz studies, however, written by outsiders and non-Israelis,
almost all of these studies have been authored by Kibbutz members.
Fifteen articles are included, drawn from data obtained by the
Institute of Research on Kibbutz Education at Oranim Haifa
University, and reflect the concern of workers in a system rather
than the preoccupation of outside observers. The studies cover a
wide range of topics and age groups, from early infancy through
adolescence, and taken as a whole provide a panoramic view of the
issues of concern to Kibbutz education in their historical context.
Each article in the volume was chosen according to three criteria:
it had to represent the principal questions of concern to the
kibbutz educational system today; reflect the changes that have
taken place in recent years in child-rearing; and display an
exacting methodology. The studies are divided into four parts
according to subject and age groups, covering early childhood and
motherhood, the transition from communal to family sleeping
arrangements, elementary school children, and adolescence. An
additional part brings together articles that fall outside of these
categories. Each part and each study also features an introduction
containing specific comments, and the book concludes with a
bibliography, a name index, and a subject index. This collection of
intra-cultural studies will be a significant addition to academic
and public libraries, and a valuable reference for courses in
sociology, education, and Israelistudies.
