The Government of Israel welcomes the opportunity to present its 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th periodic reports to the Committee for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination in accordance with the requirements of article 9, paragraph 1 (b) of the International Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Racial Discrimination (hereinafter, the “Convention” or “CERD”). The present combined report supplements Israel’s initial report and subsequent reports relating to the years 1982, 1984 and 1991 (CERD/C/192/Add.2), and 1993, 1995 and 1997 (CERD/C/294/Add.1).1 2. This report has been prepared by the Department for International Agreements and International Litigation at the Ministry of Justice with the assistance of other ministries, departments, agencies and entities of the Government of Israel. Israeli nongovernmental organizations (“NGOs”) were also invited to submit comments prior to the compilation of this report. 3. Racial discrimination is prohibited in Israel. The State of Israel condemns all forms of racial discrimination, and its government has maintained a consistent policy prohibiting such discrimination. The Israeli Government has taken constant measures to uphold the provisions of CERD since its ratification of this important instrument. 4. Since the submission of Israel’s last reports to the Committee in 1997, many new significant legislative, judicial and administrative developments relevant to the Convention have occurred. This combined report provides a comprehensive account of these developments. 5. A short summary of some of the most significant policy and legislative developments that have occurred in Israel since its last report to the Committee is provided below. We would note that while it will naturally take time for some of the more recent developments to translate into concrete results, in many areas substantial new measures that give effect to the provisions of the Convention have already come into effect. I. Legislative measures 6. Since 1998 significant new steps have been taken by the Israeli Parliament (the "Knesset") to promote tolerance and the elimination of racial discrimination in all its forms. Some noteworthy examples are included below. 7. The Knesset enacted legislation prohibiting discrimination against minority groups in the provision of pubic services, the Prohibition of Discrimination in Products, Services and Entry into Places of Entertainment and Public Places Law, 5761-2000 ("The Prohibition of Discrimination in Products, Services and Entry into Places of Entertainment and Public Places Law"). The Law prohibits discrimination by an individual operating a public place. Violation of this prohibition is both a civil wrong and a criminal offence punishable by fine. The law applies to the State as well and has been interpreted broadly as applying to a host of public places, including schools, libraries, pools, stores, and all other places serving the public. Court decisions have upheld this broad interpretation of the law. CERD/C/471/Add.2 page 5 8. The Knesset amended the Civil Service Law (Appointments), 5719-1959 ("The Civil Service Law (Appointments)"), in 1998 to institute affirmative action programs in the Civil Service hiring practices in order to ensure the adequate representation of minority groups. 9. Several amendments to the Penal Law 5739-1977 ("The Penal Law") created important tools to enable prosecution of racist incitement and "hate crimes". A 1994 amendment doubled the punishment for offences committed for a racist motive; a 2002 amendment added offences of incitement to violence and terror; and a November 2004 amendment added a section titled "Hate Offences". 10. The Pupils Rights Law, 5761-2000 ("The Pupils Rights Law") enacted in 2000, bans any form of discrimination concerning the registration of students by the governmental and local authorities or any educational institution (at Article 5 (A) (1)).

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.

Currently living in Harduf Anthroposophic Community in the North of Israel. Over the past 25 years I have translated 15 books as well as articles from English and German into Hebrew, mostly in the areas of literature, Jewish and New Age spirituality, Anthroposophy, self help, parenting, couples help and new age psychology & channelling. Recently I also translated an 300-page autobiography from Hebrew into English. I have also written, illustrated and self-published 12 children's books in Hebrew to-date, with more intended in near future. The first of them I also translated into English and published on Amazon July 2015. Part of my expertise lies in presenting a well written translated text, i.e. I always edit my own text for accuracy and style, making sure each dot lies in its rightful place. In addition to translating, I also take editing and proof-reading works in Hebrew, concentrating on polishing-up the text in terms of style and spelling/punctuation, rather than re-writing it. Punctuation in Hebrew (Nikkud) is another skill I offer, as well as editing already-translated work from German or English, including comparing the translation to the original and correcting it as necessary.

    Chapter 1 Waldorf Teacher Education

    Chapter 1 Waldorf Teacher Education: Methodology of the Study Section 1 Introduction 1. Background information The primary focus of most of the literature on Steiner or Waldorf Education ~ whether couched in ways variously intending to theorise, compare, inform, expound, or extol ~ has been on the question of how children (whether of early childhood, primary or high school years) should be educated. The main aim of this thesis is to explore the question of how Waldorf teachers should be educated. In order to begin to tackle this seemingly straightforward question it seemed logical to begin at the beginning, that is, with the theory underlying what Waldorf teachers were being educated for. Steiner’s educational theory is explicit in maintaining that education is about facilitating the process of becoming more human. But aren’t we human enough already? What does it mean to become more human? How are human beings (for so long referred to as ‘Man’) constituted? What is ‘Man’? In some ways the trend of the questioning is reminiscent of, and inevitably leads to, the Classical Greek injunction “O Man. Know Thyself”1. It was in contemplating these questions that the realisation came of what the underlying core of the thesis would be. Something had to be said about what Steiner believed the human being to be, and therefore how the education of the human being should proceed. More specifically still, how the teachers who were to implement the 1 This injunction was engraved above the portal of the temple of Apollo at Delphi. 2 educational ideas would themselves be educated.
  • Camphill and the Future

    Camphill and the Future

    3 Camphill Contexts A communal movement, like any living thing, evolves in complex relationship with its environment. In the beginning, the relevant environment is small. The movement’s growth is shaped primarily by the founders’ creativity and strength of will, their capacity to get along with one another, and other internal factors. Movements that reach a second or third generation do so because their found- ers manage to open themselves to the surrounding world, at least to the extent of welcoming a new generation into movement leadership. This is what Camphill accomplished, rather splendidly, with the incorporation of baby boomers in the 1970s. By the time a communal movement reaches maturity, however, it does not simply live within an environment. It relates simultaneously to multiple contexts, each offering its own challenges and opportunities to the movement. The task of a mature movement is to allow itself to be transformed by each of its contexts, and simultaneously to transform each context by bringing to it distinctly communal practices and ideals. THE ANTHROPOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT Camphill’s first context was the anthroposophical movement, and anthroposophy continues to exert a formative influence over Camphill’s development. The found- ers of Camphill began as members of anthroposophical youth groups in Vienna. Like other clusters of younger anthroposophists in the 1920s and 1930s, they were impatient with abstract study and eager to translate their spiritual ideals into con- crete practices. When the rise of Hitler forced them out of Vienna, they followed the migration patterns of anthroposophists before and since—to the British Isles, and soon thereafter to the United States, South Africa, Holland, and Scandina- via.

    Camphill and the Future

    DISABILITY STUDIES | RELIGION M C KANAN THE CAMPHILL MOVEMENT, one of the world’s largest and most enduring networks of intentional communities, deserves both recognition and study. CAMPHILL A ND Founded in Scotland at the beginning of the Second World War, Camphill communities still thrive today, encompassing thousands of people living in more CAMPHILL than one hundred twenty schools, villages, and urban neighborhoods on four continents. Camphillers of all abilities share daily work, family life, and festive THE FUTURE celebrations with one another and their neighbors. Unlike movements that reject mainstream society, Camphill expressly seeks to be “a seed of social renewal” by evolving along with society to promote the full inclusion and empowerment of persons with disabilities, who comprise nearly half of their residents. In this Spirituality and Disability in an Evolving Communal Movement multifaceted exploration of Camphill, Dan McKanan traces the complexities of AND THE the movement’s history, envisions its possible future, and invites ongoing dia- logue between the fields of disability studies and communal studies. “Dan McKanan knows Camphill better than anyone else in the academic world FUTURE and has crafted an absorbing account of the movement as it faces challenges eighty years after its founding.” TIMOTHY MILLER, author of The Encyclopedic Guide to American Inten- tional Communities “This book serves as a living, working document for the Camphill movement. Spirituality and Disability Communal Movement in an Evolving McKanan shows that disability studies and communal studies have more to offer each other than we recognize.” ELIZABETH SANDERS, Managing Director, Camphill Academy “With good research and wonderful empathy, McKanan pinpoints not only Cam- phill’s societal significance but also how this eighty-year-old movement can still bring potent remediation for the values and social norms of today’s world.” RICHARD STEEL, CEO, Karl König Institute DAN MCKANAN is the Emerson Senior Lecturer at Harvard Divinity School.

Editorial Editorial Dear members and friends of the Anthroposophical Society, The Anthroposophical Society is growing. By that we do not primarily mean the membership numbers which have remained largely steady in recent years – with the exception of countries outside Europe – but rather the char- acter of the Society. It is the human diversity, the spiritual yearnings and abil- ities of the members which have grown in dimension. It is because everyone who is active in the Anthroposophical Society today contributes their expe- rience and opportunities from varied cultural perspectives and different parts of the world to the Anthroposophical Society so that the life and way of work- ing within the Society is becoming more open and diverse.

    Newsletter from the Section for the Arts of Eurythmy, Speech and Music

    titel 08.09.2002 12:13 Uhr Seite 4 Newsletter from the Section for the Arts of Eurythmy, Speech and Music Easter 1999 1 EDITORIAL Dear Readers The 30th Newsletter appears at Easter 1999, for the first world-wide Section Conference for eurythmists, speech artists and musicians. There are many voices who have reacted favourably to the new form of the Newsletter, but there are naturally also some voices criti- cal of the new attempt. The Stage Forum is not quite running as we would wish, with many topical contributions and interviews which promote meetings and exchange. For this it needs the on-the-spot help–do you not wish to conduct an interview with someone responsible for a performance or a project? Some very significant and most varying contributions are included, which face contempo- rary problems in the different realms of our Section. The intention to collect several contributions for the 50th anniversary of Marie Steiner’s death, appraising the basis and achievements of Marie Steiner for the Section, was not seen as possible. This has been written about in all the journals, in articles in which Marie Steiner’s contribution in all realms was honoured. We would have been simply repeating. The book by Wilfred Hammacher, Marie Steiner–Lebenspuren einer Individualität (‘Marie Steiner–the life-path of an individuality’), presents a comprehensive picture of this remark- able personality who stood at Rudolf Steiner’s side. The Section Conference promises to bring to visibility much that lives unnoticed in the Section. The meeting of the arts, the common tasks and questions, the mutual support, can motivate us.
