Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

  • KIRYAT ANAVIM, 1921 LESSON OVERVIEW Kiryat Anavim (City of Vineyards) Is a Kibbutz in the Judean Hills Near Jerusalem
    ANALYZING PRIMARY SOURCES CASE LEARNING ACTIVITY KIRYAT ANAVIM, 1921 LESSON OVERVIEW Kiryat Anavim (City of Vineyards) is a Kibbutz in the Judean Hills near Jerusalem. The land that would become the Kibbutz was bought in 1913-14 by the Palestine Land Development Company Organization from ‘Abdallah Effendi Abu Ghosh and ‘Abd al-Hamid Effendi Abu as part of the purchase of Dilb which had begun in 1910. The first settlers were a group of Jewish workers from Bialystock who, due to onset of World War I, vacated the area. The Kibbutz was founded in 1920 by a group of agricultural settlers from Eastern Europe who came as part of the Third Aliyah (see timeline 1919-1923). At first settlement and cultivation was difficult, especially as the settlers lacked sufficient financial resources, to develop modern farming on the hilly terrain. In 1920, the Jewish National Fund provided some financial assistance that helped the settlers by building terraces, planting saplings and. By the end of 1920 there were around 200 pioneers in Kiryat Anavim. In this lesson, students will analyze two photographs from Kiryat Anavim taken in 1921 and use their observations to produce a news story. ENDURING UNDERSTANDING Immigrants to Israel in 1920 faced many difficulties and worked hard to build and develop the infrastructure for the Jewish State. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS What was life like for pioneers to Israel in the 1920’s? What type of work did the pioneers need to do in order to develop the land? OBJECTIVES: Students will: Analyze two historical photographs Construct meaning from their observations Learn about how chroma key (green screen) photography and video work.

Just beyond the wall lies the neighborhood of al-Ram, now severed from East Jerusalem. Inside front and inside back cover image: ‚ ‚ 31°49 10”N / 35°15 59”E Palestinian side of the Separation Wall on the outskirts of the Palestinian town of ʿAnata. The Israeli settlement of Pisgat Ze’ev lies beyond in East Jerusalem. This publication takes its point of departure from Fazal Sheikh’s Memory Trace, the first of his three-volume photographic proj- ect on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Published in the spring of 2015, The Erasure Trilogy is divided into three separate vol- umes—Memory Trace, Desert Bloom, and Independence/Nakba. The project seeks to explore the legacies of the Arab–Israeli War of 1948, which resulted in the dispossession and displacement of three quarters of the Palestinian population, in the establishment of the State of Israel, and in the reconfiguration of territorial borders across the region. Elements of these volumes have been exhibited at the Slought Foundation in Philadelphia, Storefront for Art and Architecture, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Pace/MacGill Gallery in New York, and will now be presented at the Al-Ma’mal Foundation for Contemporary Art in East Jerusalem, and the Khalil Sakakini Cultural Center in Ramallah. In addition, historical documents and materials related to the history of Al-’Araqīb, a Bedouin village that has been destroyed and rebuilt more than one hundred times in the ongoing “battle over the Negev,” first presented at the Slought Foundation, will be shown at Al-Ma’mal.

Although the members of the subcommittee do not want to make definitive judgments on the applicability of education in Israel to American needs, they are most favorably impressed by the great emphasis which the Israelis place on early childhood programs, vocational/technical education, and residential youth villages. The people of Israel are considered profoundly dedicated to the support of education at every level. The country works toward expansion of opportunities for education, based upon a belief that the educational system is the key to the resolution of major social problems. In the second part of the report, the detailed itinerary of the subcommittee is described with annotated comments about the places and persons visited. In the last part, appendixes describing in great depth characteristics of the Israeli education system (higher education in Israel, education and culture, and the kibbutz) are reprinted.

It serves as a case study, the intention being to utilize it in future research comparing Suba with other villages that have been the subject of detailed study. Since the beginning of the 19th century, the Arab village in Palestine has been the subject of descriptions and research by travelers and scholars of various disciplines. They have concentrated on different aspects such as buildings, population, village life, and more, but there has been almost no micro-research of individual villages. The research methodologies applied depended on the period and disciplines of the researchers, and on the availability of different types of sources. Geographers, for instance, including Moshe Brawer and David Grossman, who published extensively on this topic, combined theoretical study with field work (Brawer, 1977; Grossman, 1992). The latter included field surveys and oral documentation that would enable synthesis and arrival at conclusions. However, most of the research material has dealt with central villages, those that were located near urban centers and major highways. Most conspicuous among these were villages of historical and religious interest, such as Ein Karem (Oren-Nordheim 1985), Abu Ghosh (Ben-Dov 2003), and their likes.
