  • Stifling Surveillance: Palestinians: Its Goal Has Always Been to Drive Them Out
    Israel has never intended to control the Stifling Surveillance: Palestinians: Its goal has always been to drive them out. However, during Israel’s Surveillance the Mandate era, as part of their effort and Control of the to disorganize the Palestinian society, Zionist organizations established various Palestinians during the surveillance bodies to examine and monitor Military Government Era various aspects of Palestinian society. These related to the demographic, religious, Ahmad H. Sa’di tribal, and hamula (extended family or clan) composition of the Palestinians, their spatial distribution, political behaviors, and military capabilities, as well as their resources, chiefly lands and water sources. These activities were part of an all-inclusive effort to establish a Jewish state against the will of the indigenous Arab population. Yet, when the 1948 war ended, Israel leaders found that, contrary to their expectations, a number of Palestinian communities, primarily in the Galilee, had eluded the ethnic cleansing conducted by Jewish forces. The incomplete character of the expulsion of the Palestinians subsequently became subject of much speculation and distortion.1 However, internal discussions among Israeli leaders indicate that the continued presence of these Palestinians within the state of Israel was unintentional and undesired.2 Although a system of political control which relied on the British Defense (Emergency) Regulations was imposed on the Palestinians and a military government to rule them was established already during the war, in addition to various ad hoc practices of surveillance, driving the Palestinians out continued to be Israel’s main objective.3 Although expulsion remained Israel’s favored goal – and various schemes to effect it were contrived during the 1950s and 1960s4 – as early as 1951 Israeli leaders [ 36 ] Stifling Surveillance began realizing that these Palestinians might stay longer than expected.

  • Dov Noy (1920–2013)
    DOI 10.1515/fabula-2014-0021 | Fabula 2014; 55(3/4): 314–317 Dov Noy (1920–2013) The founder of academic folklore studies in Israel, Dov Noy, passed away on September 29, 2013, a few weeks before his ninety-third birthday. Noy was born on October 20, 1920 in the Ukrainian town of Kolomyja (then Kolomea in Polish Galizia) on the river Prut, as a son of the local family Neumann. He always attributed his interest in folk literary creativity to the memories from his childhood’s traditions in Yiddish that he heard recited and sung especially by his grandmother who lived with the family. His traditional Jewish and Hebrew education was largely bestowed upon him in his family enhanced by the presence of a private tutor, the poet Shimshon Meltzer. Meltzer had a special interest in the local Hasidic milieu and he thus also inspired Noy’s folkloristic sensibility, who in parallel acquired a Polish civil education at the local gymnasium. His early tri- lingual proficiency was enhanced by German while he was still in the gymnasium and English that was perfected some years later. In 1938 Dov Neumann was lucky to obtain one of the coveted certificates for immigration to the British Mandate of Palestine to which Jewish immigration was strictly limited in numbers, having enrolled and been accepted as a student at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He thus escaped the cruel fate of his family members who all perished in the Shoah, except for his brother Meir Noy (1922–98) who survived its great hardships in Europe and became a composer and an ethnomusicologist, and whose Hebrew Song Collection is today at the National Library of Israel.

  • The Palestinians in Israel
    Working Paper V The Role of Social Sorting and Categorization Under Exceptionalism in Controlling a National Minority: The Palestinians in Israel by Ahmad H. Sa’di∗ November 2011 ∗ Department of Politics & Government, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev Introduction This report explores how surveillance and categorization were used by the state of Israel to control the Palestinian minority during the first two decades after Israel’s establishment in 1948. The methods of surveillance, which involve collection of data about the population, its storage, classification, and the categorization of citizens according to various organizing principles, have been essential tools for modern states in managing their populations. The collected data and its presentation through various statistical measures, which enhances the power of the state, may be used positively – to address the needs of the population efficiently, to target groups which are in need of special attention, to empower citizens – or negatively to subjugate or marginalize certain groups. Michel Foucault has famously argued that power is constitutive of the self, though he also maintained that power could have a positive or negative role. In the latter form it is used for domination. While the naïve perception of social groups as “natural” or as positioned around an interiority that sets them apart from others is disappearing, the recent research on surveillance, following Foucault, has focused on the role that power plays in the constitution of social categories and identities. Thus, social sorting, categorization and the construction of polarities are examined. This approach is employed in the first section of this report. In it, I shall probe the construction of the Palestinians as non-Jewish population and as a collection of ethnicities by exploring the historical origin of these categories and tracing their evolvement.

Mrs. Gerald ana a few others tr~ed some years back to stampede everybody in Israel and in the United States into launch­ ing this project. Mrs. Gerald has distinguished herself by her unpleasantness, obstreperousness and lack of any sense of reality. We took the matter up, at that time, with the then Mayor of Haifa, Abba Hushi, and with the Ministry of Finance and the Jewish Agency in Jerusalem, and it was decided by all concerned that: a) Of all priorities for Israel, this is by far one on the lowest rung. b) Nobody is interested in a popular dollar campaign in the United States# whethe r among Jews alone or among the whole populace.
