  • ARTICLES Israel's Migration Balance
    ARTICLES Israel’s Migration Balance Demography, Politics, and Ideology Ian S. Lustick Abstract: As a state founded on Jewish immigration and the absorp- tion of immigration, what are the ideological and political implications for Israel of a zero or negative migration balance? By closely examining data on immigration and emigration, trends with regard to the migration balance are established. This article pays particular attention to the ways in which Israelis from different political perspectives have portrayed the question of the migration balance and to the relationship between a declining migration balance and the re-emergence of the “demographic problem” as a political, cultural, and psychological reality of enormous resonance for Jewish Israelis. Conclusions are drawn about the relation- ship between Israel’s anxious re-engagement with the demographic problem and its responses to Iran’s nuclear program, the unintended con- sequences of encouraging programs of “flexible aliyah,” and the intense debate over the conversion of non-Jewish non-Arab Israelis. KEYWORDS: aliyah, demographic problem, emigration, immigration, Israel, migration balance, yeridah, Zionism Changing Approaches to Aliyah and Yeridah Aliyah, the migration of Jews to Israel from their previous homes in the diaspora, was the central plank and raison d’être of classical Zionism. Every stream of Zionist ideology has emphasized the return of Jews to what is declared as their once and future homeland. Every Zionist political party; every institution of the Zionist movement; every Israeli government; and most Israeli political parties, from 1948 to the present, have given pride of place to their commitments to aliyah and immigrant absorption. For example, the official list of ten “policy guidelines” of Israel’s 32nd Israel Studies Review, Volume 26, Issue 1, Summer 2011: 33–65 © Association for Israel Studies doi: 10.3167/isr.2011.260108 34 | Ian S.

  • Tel Aviv-Jaffa
    Chapter 7 Tel Aviv-Jaffa 1 Introduction Tel Aviv-Jaffa is the second city of Israel, located on the Mediterranean coast- line. It is the nation’s financial center and technology hub; it is also the third- largest urban economy in the Middle East after Abu Dhabi and Kuwait City (Brookings Institution 2014). The city receives around three million tourists and visitors annually. It has been a long way since Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 by a few dozens of Jewish immigrants on the outskirts of the ancient port city of Jaffa, then mostly populated by Arabs. The first neighborhoods had been established in 1886 (Elkayam 1990) and new quarters made their appearance outside Jaffa in the following years. On 11 April 1909, 66 Jewish families gathered on a sand dune to parcel out the land. This was the official date of the establishment of Tel Aviv. By 1914, Tel Aviv had grown to more than one square kilometer. The town rapidly became an attraction for newcomers. These were the years of the British Mandate and the number of those immigrants – from Poland and Ger- many mainly – increased all along the 1930s, propelled by the world economic crisis of 1929 and the rise to power of Nazism in Germany in 1993. As a conse- quence, frictions intensified between Arabs and Jews in Palestine1 but did little to prevent Tel Aviv from growing (Glass 2002). In 1923, Tel Aviv was the first town to be wired to electricity in the country, and it was granted municipal status in 1934. By 1937 it had grown to 150,000 inhabitants, compared to Jaffa’s 69,000 residents.

The author and the staff of the Department of Marine Geology and Coastal Processes wish to express our appreciation and thank Mr. Bertram Cohn of North American Friends of IOLR for the funding support provided. RESULTS Main results obtained so far are presented in tables and graphs. They show assessments of the maximum runup of the waves during extreme storm conditions, of the extreme waves and sea levels for return average periods of up to 100 years, results of erosion-accretion balance for the study coast during 1997-2004 period, examples of differential maps of the beach and cliff at Apolonia and near Marina Herzliya between 2002 and 2003 as well as the waterline position changes between 1997 and 2004, and examples of the numerical wave and sedimentological modeling simulations and their outcomes for the study sector – the central sector of the Mediterranean coast of Israel. PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS The work presented in this report is an ongoing study on the coastal erosion at the beach and coastal cliff of a typical coastal sector at the Mediterranean coast of Israel.

  • ISRAEL Population R-Pihe POPULATION of the State of Israel at the End of June 1954 Was 1,687,886
    ISRAEL Population r-piHE POPULATION of the State of Israel at the end of June 1954 was 1,687,886. J. Of these, 188,936 (about 11 per cent) were non-Jews. The table below shows the growth of the population of Israel since May 1948. TABLE 1 JEWISH POPULATION OF ISRAEL, MAY 1948-JULY 1954 Tear Jews Non-Jews Total 1948 758,000 1949 1,013,000 160,000 1,173,000 1950 1,203,000 167,000 1,370,000 1951 1,404,000 173,000 1,577,000 1952 1,450,000 179,000 1,629,000 1953 1,483,505 185,892 1,669,397 1954 (July) 1,498,950 188,936 1,687,886 The total yearly population increase fell from 17 per cent in 1950 to 15 per cent in 1951, 3.3 per cent in 1952, and 2.3 per cent in 1953, due to a decrease in the number of immigrants. Since the first half of 1952 the natural increase had exceeded the net migration. During the first half of 1953 the number of emigrants exceeded the number of immigrants, but during the latter half of the year, immigration was again somewhat greater than emi- gration. During 1953 there were 11,800 immigrants and 8,650 emigrants in all. During the first six months of 1954, 4,128 new immigrants came to Israel.

  • 20141116 Herzliya ME WMD Report
    Pugwash Workshop on “The Unchangeable Middle East” Herzliya, Israel 14-15 November 2014 MAIN POINTS: • The ISIS/Daesh threat has emerged as the most serious threat to regional stability given its penetration into Iraq and Syria. Although it does not explicitly focus on Israel, as it now stands there is concern as it nears the northern border of Israel. • The extremism of the ISIS/Daesh movement has perversely weakened the perceived extremism of other radical movements in the Middle East such as Hizbollah and Hamas. • Although it appears that a deal on the Iran nuclear issue is close, there is still significant difference over what constitutes a good deal from Israeli perspectives; concern persists over breakout, possible military dimensions to Iran’s past nuclear activities, and verification. However, there is the risk of torpedoing a reasonable deal on these grounds. • The ramifications of a deal on the Iranian nuclear issue include a possible regional problem of technological proliferation in other states, as well as concerns over emboldening Iran to act through proxies vis-à-vis Israel. On the flipside, it was pointed out a deal could help bring Iran on board with action to be taken against Daesh. • Some consider that the major threat to Israel today has become the decline of Israel’s status in international public opinion, particularly in the wake of the most recent Gaza war. • There has been a predominant Israeli narrative that has been sold very well, and it is continued today, that there is no partner for peace on the Palestinian side. • The Israeli-Palestinian peace process does not really exist at this time, and the prospects for it being reinvigorated are slim.

  • Demography and Transfer: Israel's Road to Nowhere
    Third World Quarterly, Vol 24, No 4, pp 619–630, 2003 Demography and transfer: Israel’s road to nowhere ELIA ZUREIK ABSTRACT The conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, which dates back to the latter part of the nineteenth century, has always been a conflict over land and population balance. At the start of the twenty-first century, with no end in sight to the conflict, the issue of demography stares both sides in the face. Israel’s ability to maintain military and economic superiority over neighbouring Arab countries in general and the Palestinians in particular is matched by its inability to maintain long-term numerical superiority in the areas it holds west of the Jordan River. It is expected that within 10 to 15 years there will be parity between the Arabs and the 5.5 million Jews who currently live in historical Palestine. While discussion of Arab population transfer has been relegated to internal debates among Zionist leaders, the idea itself has always remained a key element in Zionist thinking of ways to solve the demography problem and ensure Jewish population dominance. A recent decline in Jewish immigration to Israel, the rise of the religious-political right, continuing Jewish settlement in the West Bank and Gaza and the recent Palestinian uprising have moved this debate to the public arena. Fractions among Israel’s intellectuals, political figures and Sharon government ministers have raised the demography issue publicly, calling openly for the transfer of the Palestinian population to Jordan. It was Theodore Herzl, the father and ideologue of modern Zionism, who more than a century ago lobbied the Ottoman government and the potentates of Europe on behalf of the Zionist movement for a foothold in Palestine.
