Description
Book SynopsisThis book is the result of ethnographic research carried out in the Academic College of Judea & Samaria (ACJS), located in the West Bank of Israel/Palestine. The book deals with Israeli citizenship and identity, and examines the ways in which it is being understood and imagined by ACJS students and teachers. The book also analyzes the Orange Zionist organizational culture of the ACJS. In the end, a new socio-political model of Israel/Palestine is offered: Israel as a Zionist Democracy.
Trade Review«It is not an ethnographic study executed in the standard manner. The research strategy reflects a mix of qualitative methods: observations, interviews and the «sensed» atmosphere as a resident in town and teacher at the college.» (Professor Moshe Shokeid, Tel Aviv University)
