Is Israel One?

Religion, Nationalism, and Multiculturalism Confounded

Edición de la obra Is Israel one?

"This book delves into Israeli society where internal divides have emerged from divergent value systems in a context of powerful globalization, immigrant-society behavior, and a sharp majority-minority division. A short but hectic experience, Jewish nationalism draws its vitality from reformulations of ancestral symbols which permeate the dynamics between the dominant culture and numerous parties, all contesting their exigencies. Israel's conflicts revolve around this issue, forming a unique dynamic of multiple interacting forces of convergence and divergence. This case raises several major questions about the sociology of multiculturalism."--BOOK JACKET.
