  • When Souls and Stones Meet in Old Akko the International Conservation Center
    When Souls and Stones meet in Old Akko The International Conservation Center Shelley-Anne Peleg Israel Antiquities Authority Rockefeller Museum P.O.B 586 Jerusalem [email protected] Abstract: As a World Heritage Site, Akko is a veritable live laboratory for studying and practicing conservation of historic sites and monuments. As an ancient city, once a major crossroad of Mediterranean civilizations, it has a rich and long heritage of oral traditions, social practices, rituals and festive events, as well as traditional crafts, art, music and culture. These aspects have barely been accounted for during development programs of the city. Local and international projects of the newly established International Conservation Center aim at enriching the character of the city by: *Enhancing the knowledge of the inhabitants of Akko about their city. *Safeguarding the intangible culture of the city by collecting, researching and reviving local traditions *Training conservation professionals at the sites of the city *Serving as a resource for all cultural and historic aspects of the city. The Old city of Akko was designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2001 (World Heritage List 2001). It is a port city with walls, castles, fortifications, churches, mosques and other buildings that tell the story of many glorifiers. The 4,000 years of continuous settlement within the city, has created in it a unique feature of modern inhabitants residing within historical buildings. It is a city with a rare mix of east and west, of authentic sites alongside the remnants of various cultures. The colorful oriental bazaars of Akko, the city walls, the fisherman’s wharf and restaurants are all part of the special attractions of the city.

INSTITUTION Congress of the U.S., Washington, E.C. House Ccmmittee on Education and Labcr. PUB DATE Aug 70 NOTE 237p. EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MP-$1.00 BC-$11.95 DESCRIPTORS Acculturation, Educational Needs, Educational Opportunities, *Educational Problems, *Educational Programs, Educational Resources, Ethnic Groups, *Ethnic Relations, Ncn Western Civilization, Research and Development Centers, *Research Projects IDENTIFIERS Committee On Education And Labor, Hebrew University, *Israel, Tel Aviv University ABSTRACT This Congressional Subcommittee report on education in Israel begins with a brief narrative of impressions on preschool programs, kibbutz, vocational programs, and compensatory programs. 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.

  • The Names and Boundaries of Eretz-Israel (Palestine) As Reflections of Stages in Its History
    THE NAMES AND BOUNDARIES OF ERETZ-ISRAEL (PALESTINE) AS REFLECTIONS OF STAGES IN ITS HISTORY GIDEON BIGER INTRODUCTION Classical historical geography focuses on research of the boundaries of the various states, along with the historical development of these boundaries over time. Edward Freeman, in his book written in 1881 and entitled The Historical Geography of Europe, defines the nature of historical-geographical research as follows: "The work which we have now before us is to trace out the extent of territory which the different states and nations have held at different times in the world's history, to mark the different boundaries which the same country has had and the different meanings in which the same name has been used." The author further claims that "it is of great importance carefully to make these distinctions, because great mistakes as to the facts of history are often caused through men thinking and speaking as if the names of different countries have always meant exactly the same extent of territory. "1 Although this approach - which regards research on boundaries as the essence of historical geography- is not accepted at present, the claim that it is necessary to define the extent of territory over history is as valid today as ever. It is impossible to discuss the development of any geographical area having political and territorial significance without knowing and understanding its physical extent. Of no less significance for such research are the names attached to any particular expanse. The naming of a place is the first step in defining it politically and historically.

  • Identity As Discourse: 'The Person in Need of Guardianship'
    British Journal of Social Work (2020) 0, 1–18 doi: 10.1093/bjsw/bcaa061 Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/bjsw/advance-article/doi/10.1093/bjsw/bcaa061/5861718 by Haifa University Library user on 14 October 2020 Identity as Discourse: ‘The Person in Need of Guardianship’ Michal Barel1,2,*, Israel (Issi) Doron3 and Roni Strier4 1Department of Gerontology, Faculty of Welfare and Health Sciences, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel 2Department of Social Services, Modi’in-Maccabim-Reut Municipality, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel 3Department of Gerontology, Faculty of Welfare and Health Sciences, Head of the Center for Research and Study of Aging, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel 4School of Social Work, Faculty of Welfare and Health Sciences, Interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Poverty and Social Exclusion, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel *Correspondence to Michal Barel, Migdal Oz 14/3, Modi’in-Maccabim-Reut 7170334. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This article presents a critical discussion of the legal institution of adult guardianship in Israel. Based on a critical discourse analysis’ study of official guardianship reports for older adults submitted by social workers to family courts in Israel, findings reveal how guardianship institutional procedures construct the personal life stories of older persons into legalistic guardianship paradigm, and in doing so they create a new iden- tity of ‘a person in need of guardianship’. The article further delineates how ‘a person in need of guardianship’ (as well as a ‘guardian’) is a discursive identity, a subject who never existed prior to the guardianship proceeding, a legal creation which does not reflect the complexities and realities of older persons.

  • ABOUT YOAV Established in 1952 and Located South of Jerusalem And
    ABOUT YOAV Established in 1952 and located south of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, east of Ashqelon and north of Beersheva, it is named after the late Yitzhak Dubno (nicknamed Yoav), the first commander of Kibbutz Negba in the independence war of 1948. Yoav is centrally located. The regional council is comprised of 14 communities (8 kibbutzim, 3 moshavim, a youth village, an Arab Village and a new country center) with a combined population of approximately 5,200 people. The region covers approximately 57,500 acres. Each kibbutz and moshav has its own unique history and identity. The residents of Yoav come from all over the world (In one kibbutz alone, they have counted 29 different nationalities!), resulting in a very dynamic and vibrant community that blends and harmonizes the multi ethnic backgrounds. The Region has an extensive recreational appeal, with hot springs, caves, and archaeological sites. In addition to recreation and tourism, their industry base includes agriculture and manufacturing. They are part of the Kiryat Gat industrial zone, where there is an Air Products plant that supports the needs of the Intel Factory. Militarily, the region has a border patrol army base that protects their vulnerable perimeter along the West Bank. ECONOMY Agriculture: 25% Industry: 24% Tourism: 8% Services and Education: 43% The main occupation in Yoav is agriculture: field crops, orchards, dairy, chickens, hot‐houses for growing flowers and winter vegetables. The region supports these agricultural efforts with various industries that are involved in research, processing, packing and distribution. AGRICULTURE AND RELATED INDUSTRY AND RESOURCES: Agrinir is involved in the entire olive oil production process ‐‐ from growing and pressing the olives, to bottling and marketing.

  • Yemin Orde Youth Village Fact Sheet
    YEMIN ORDE YOUTH VILLAGE FACT SHEET / WWW.YEMINORDE.ORG BACKGROUND Yemin Orde, located just outside of Haifa, is a year-round home to some 500 children from 20 countries around the world. All of the children have experienced trauma of one form or another and all are defined as youth at-risk. Some arrive in Israel from other parts of the world while others come from dysfunctional family situations within the country. The common denominator for these children is the lack of any suitable home environment within Israel. POPULATION Ages: 6 – 19 Our elementary and middle school-aged children attend local schools, individually chosen to meet the children's needs. High school-aged children attend school at the Village. A sample of our children's countries of origin: Ethiopia, Russia, Brazil, Israel, France, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Latvia, Kazakhstan, Chad, Sudan, and China. Twenty-five percent of the children at Yemin Orde are orphans. MISSION AND PHILOSOPHY Yemin Orde is dedicated to giving its children the highest quality personal care, providing a quality education and serving psychosocial needs. Such care for adolescents is difficult under ordinary circumstances, but for Yemin Orde’s youth it is further complicated by trauma and separation from family and/or a native land and culture. Yemin Orde’s goal is to raise young people who are secure, confident and able to thrive in a new society and culture. Through decades of experience with youngsters from dozens of different countries, Yemin Orde knows that embracing cultural background is critical to the process of absorption.

  • Israel- Language and Culture.Pdf
    Study Guide Israel: Country and Culture Introduction Israel is a republic on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea that borders Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Egypt. A Jewish nation among Arab and Christian neighbors, Israel is a cultural melting pot that reflects the many immigrants who founded it. Population: 8,002,300 people Capital: Jerusalem Languages: Hebrew and Arabic Flag of Israel Currency: Israeli New Sheckel History Long considered a homeland by various names—Canaan, Judea, Palestine, and Israel—for Jews, Arabs, and Christians, Great Britain was given control of the territory in 1922 to establish a national home for the Jewish people. Thousands of Jews immigrated there between 1920 and 1930 and laid the foundation for communities of cooperative villages known as “kibbutzim.” A kibbutz is a cooperative village or community, where all property is collectively owned and all members contribute labor to the group. Members work according to their capacity and receive food, clothing, housing, medical services, and other domestic services in exchange. Dining rooms, kitchens, and stores are central, and schools and children’s dormitories are communal. Assemblies elected by a vote of the membership govern each village, and the communal wealth of each village is earned through agricultural, entrepreneurial, or industrial means. The first kibbutz was founded on the bank of the Jordan River in 1909. This type of community was necessary for the early Jewish immigrants to Palestine. By living and working collectively, they were able to build homes and establish systems to irrigate and farm the barren desert land. At the beginning of the 1930s a large influx of Jewish immigrants came to Palestine from Germany because of the onset of World War II.
