This article addresses anti-Arab riots that occurred in Israel during the “Little Israel” period − 1948–1967 – and the discourse around them, both in the media and and behind the scenes. It sheds light on the tendency to emphasize the rioters’ Mizrahi descent and to attribute their violence to “Mizrahi culture” and “Mizrahi primitivism,” which dovetailed the broader array of stereotypes attached to Mizrahim: low education, a patriarchal culture and savagery. This allowed for ascribing violence to Mizrahim even when they were not involved in it and overlooking assailants’ ethnicity when Ashkenazim were behind violent attacks. This article claims that projecting anti-Arab violence on the Mizrahim while ignoring all forms of anti-Arab violence that were perpetrated by state agencies or by Ashkenazi Jews was intended to enable the Ashkenazi-Israeli old guard to maintain its own self-image as humanistic and the image of Israel as a democracy that upholds equality among its citizens. Moreover, the perception of anti-Arabness as part of the very definition of Mizrahiness was adopted not only by the Ashkenazi establishment but also by some Mizrahim themselves, to the point that it has become a part of the Israeli popular political imagery to this day.

ABSTRACT In this article, I identify two ideological currents within the Zionist movement, a philanthropic one and a capitalist one. Institutionally, the philanthropic current manifested through Keren Ha-Yesod and the capitalist one through the two Zionist banks, the Jewish Colonial Trust and the Anglo-Palestine Company. Despite the different ideologies and modes of operation associated with these financing institutions, the three of them were in fact tightly connected and at certain junctures dependent on each other for their survival. The economic context in which the financing institutions of Zionism operated determined their relative strength within their relationship, whereas ideology played a secondary role.
摘要在这篇文章中,我发现了犹太复国主义运动中的两股思潮,一股是慈善思潮,另一股是资本主义思潮。从制度上讲,慈善潮流通过Keren Ha Yesod表现出来,资本主义潮流通过两家犹太复国主义银行,犹太殖民信托和英国巴勒斯坦公司表现出来。尽管这些金融机构有着不同的意识形态和运作模式,但它们三者实际上是紧密相连的,在某些时刻相互依赖才能生存。犹太复国主义融资机构运作的经济背景决定了它们在关系中的相对实力,而意识形态起着次要作用。

ABSTRACT The housing shortage faced by demobilized soldiers after the 1948 War was especially grave in Jerusalem, where they had to compete with refugees, immigrants, and civil servants over abandoned properties. Public construction of new homes for them in the city was belated, limited, and slow when compared to other localities in Israel. Despite public sympathy and institutional aid, organizational circumstances and political considerations resulted in a solution for some, yet no affordable and timely solution for all. The prioritization of various groups of home seekers often sidelined demobilized soldiers, highlighting the erratic nature of Jerusalem’s postwar repopulation process and the spatial manifestations of social capital.

ABSTRACT Incarceration facilities are microcosms of the society within which they exist, mirroring its social, economic, ethnic, and national divisions that continue to manifest within them, albeit in different ways. Yet, we rarely have a chance to take even a quick look at what takes place within the prison walls, which most often remains hidden. Prisoners’ revolts and mass escapes produce both a practical and a metaphoric crack in the closure of the walls that surround prisons and afford a glimpse, however partial, of some of these intriguing aspects. The prisoners’ uprising that took place at Shata Prison on July 31, 1958, led to the largest prisoner escape in Israel: 11 prisoners and two guards were killed, 66 prisoners fled to Jordan, and many others were injured. The article tells the story of that uprising, moving along the macro axis, which examines its broad implications for Israeli incarceration policy, and the micro axis, which follows three key figures featured in the event: the leader of the revolt, a guard, and a Jewish prisoner. The article weaves the fabric of Israeli society in its first decade, with its rifts, fears, frustrations, and hopes.
