    Residential Location, Work Location, and Labor Market Outcomes of Immigrants In Israel∗ Moshe Buchinsky UCLA, NBER and CREST-INSEE Chemi Gotlibovski The Academic College of Tel Aviv Yafo This Version: February, 2008 First Version: February, 2007 ∗This research was supported by the ISF under grant No. 811/02. We thank Yoram Weiss for insightful comments and discussion, to Robert Sauer for help at the early stages of this project, and to Corinne Parenti-Sauer for helping us with processing the data. We also thank seminar participants at INSEE-CREST, Toulouse, UCL, LSE, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Haifa University, Bar-Ilan University, Tel Aviv University, and CERGE-EI, for useful comments and suggestions. 1Introduction Internal migration and immigration are two important mechanisms by which market economies adjust to changing economic conditions and achieve optimal allocation of resources. An influx of new workers to a particular region, be they new immigrants or internal migrants, can help equilibrate the labor market and improve the interregional allocation of resources. Perhaps due to frictions which prevent the free flow of labor, national policies aimed at facilitating the arrival of new workers to different regions of a country are now widespread. Governments often subsidize the relocation expenses of internal migrants, subsidize mortgages, and help in creating employment exchanges which advertise job openings nationally. The purpose of this paper is to empirically examine the effect of national migration policy on the regional location choices and labor market outcomes of migrant workers. As a particular case study, we focus on measuring the consequences of the Israeli government’s intervention in the housing market on the labor market outcomes of new immigrants from the former Soviet Union.

  • Mapping Human Induced Landscape Changes in Israel Between the End of the 19Th Century and the Beginning of the 21Th Century
    10.2478/jlecol-2014-0012 Journal of Landscape Ecology (2014), Vol: 7 / No. 1 MAPPING HUMAN INDUCED LANDSCAPE CHANGES IN ISRAEL BETWEEN THE END OF THE 19TH CENTURY AND THE BEGINNING OF THE 21TH CENTURY GAD SCHAFFER¹, NOAM LEVIN² ¹Department of Geography, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Mount Scopus, Jerusalem 91905, Israel. Phone: +972-552-236800, email: [email protected] ²Department of Geography, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Mount Scopus, Jerusalem 91905, Israel. Phone: +972-2-5881078, email: [email protected] Received: 18th June 2014, Accepted: 13th August 2014 ABSTRACT This paper examines changes in Israel's landscape by comparing two time periods, 1881 and 2011. For this purpose we compared land cover derived from the Palestine Exploration Fund historical map to a present land cover map that was compiled from 38 different present-day GIS layers. The research aims were (1) to quantitatively examine what were the changes in Israel's landscape between 1881 and 2011; (2) to identify and explain spatial patterns in these landscape changes. Landscape transformation was categorized into five classes: 'residual bare' (no change in natural vegetation, mostly in desert areas); 'residual' (i.e. remnant; no change in natural vegetation class); 'transformed' (changes between different natural vegetation areas); 'replaced' (area which became managed); 'removed' (no or minimal natural vegetation). We found that only 21% of the area retained similar landscape classes as in the past, with the largest changes taking place in ecoregions that were favorable for developing agriculture – Jezre’el Valley and the Sharon Plain. Two physical factors had a strong effect on the type of change in the landscape: (1) most of the agricultural areas and human settlements were found in areas ranging between 400-600 mm/year (2) natural land cover features were more common in areas with steeper slopes.

  • Judges 1And 2 Heitzig
    Judges 1-2 - Skip Heitzig Well, I'll confess that in one sense, I'd love to completely erase the Book of Judges from scripture, because it is the story of the failure of God's people. And it is a sad piece of history, but true nonetheless. So I say on one hand, I'd like to erase it. I want to quickly say on the other hand, I want to elevate it. I want to elevate it, because there's an old saying that probably never is proven more true than in the Book of Judges that says those who fail to learn from history are doomed to relive it. So we have the history of the failure of God's people in this book, and it serves to us as a warning. Now, in my prayer I mentioned this is not a book that we frequent a lot. If you are depressed, I would not recommend you go searching through the Book of Judges to find comfort. There are plenty of other places in scripture to do that. This is a book that might just drag you down a little bit further. But there are some vital lessons to be learned in this book. You see, the nation of Israel were God's people. They were God's unique people, His nation. To use the parlance of Americanism, we would say they were one nation under God. They had the freedom of having a unique covenant with God and walking with God from the wilderness after being delivered from Egypt, marching across the Jordan River into a land that was uniquely theirs that God gave them to inhabit, to be able to settle in it, raise their families, worship God.

The large number of new immigrants from the former Soviet Union that arrived in Israel towards the end of 1989 were allowed to freely choose their first locations of residence anywhere in the country. Government housing policy presumably influenced these first location choices, as well as subse- quent relocation choices, because it substantially changed the regional housing cost structure.1 The Israeli government altered relative housing costs across regions of the country through both supply and demand interventions.
