Abstract

This article examines the interrelations between two educational endeavors in Israeli high schools, which are usually perceived as separated. The first is a pre-military education program that is an inherent part of Israeli schools’ formal and nonformal curriculum. The second is the incorporation of volunteering activity in and for the community as a compulsory prerequisite for the matriculation diploma. An integrative analysis of policy and curricular documents of both programs suggests that a shared common discursive framework characterizes these programs. This discourse glorifies an ideal Israeli citizen who serves his country through both civic volunteering and military service. This dual discourse blurs the boundaries between what is considered civic and what is considered military in the education system. Thus, it calls for a reconsideration of the ways in which civic education may be implemented in the education system together with militaristic ideals.

学校中的武器化志愿服务:以色列高中的志愿服务和战前教育
本文探讨了以色列高中的两种教育努力之间的相互关系,这两种努力通常被认为是分离的。第一个是战前教育项目,它是以色列学校正规和非正规课程的固有组成部分。第二是将社区内和为社区服务的志愿活动作为获得入学文凭的强制性先决条件。对这两个项目的政策和课程文件的综合分析表明,这些项目具有共同的话语框架。这篇文章赞美了一位理想的以色列公民,他通过公民志愿服务和兵役为国家服务。这种双重话语模糊了教育系统中公民和军事之间的界限。因此,它呼吁重新考虑公民教育与军国主义理想在教育系统中的实施方式。
