    Arkitektur i konflikt: Arkitekturens rolle i kampen om Jerusalem Ida Kathinka Skolseg MØNA4590 - Masteroppgave i Midtøsten- og Nord-Afrika-studier Institutt for kulturstudier og orientalske språk UNIVERSITETET I OSLO Mai 2016 II The city does not consist of this, but of relationships between the measurements of its space and the events of its past… The city, however, does not tell its past, but contains it like the lines of a hand, written in the corners of the streets, the gratings of the windows, the banisters of the steps, the antennae of the lightning rods, the poles of the flags, every segment mamrked in turn with scratches, indentations, scrolls. Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities. III © Forfatter Ida Kathinka Skolseg År 2016 Tittel Arkitektur i konflikt: Hva er arkitekturens rolle i kampen om Jerusalem Forfatter Ida Kathinka Skolseg http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo IV Sammendrag Israel forsøker å presentere Jerusalem som en forent by, hvis udelelige egenskap er basert på Jerusalems rolle som jødenes religiøse, historiske og politiske hovedstad. Den politiske dimensjonen av "å bygge landet Israel" er en fundamental, men samtidig en skjult komponent av enhver bygning som blir konstruert. Den politiske virkeligheten dette skaper er ofte mer konkluderende og dominerende enn hva den stilmessige, estetiske og sensuelle effekten av hva en bygning kan kommunisere. "Ingen er fullstendig fri fra striden om rom", skriver Edward Said, "og det handler ikke bare om soldater og våpen, men også ideer, former, bilder og forestillinger." 27. juni, to uker etter at Seksdagerskrigen endte i 1967, ble 64 kvadratkilometer land og ca.

  • Urgent Action
    Further information on UA: 181/15 Index: MDE 15/2311/2015 Israel/OPT Date: 21 August 2015 URGENT ACTION HUNGER STRIKER OUT OF COMA, STILL IN DANGER Mohammed Allan ended his hunger-strike on 20 August after the Israeli High Court ruled that his administrative detention order be suspended because of his medical condition. Two days earlier, he had come out of a four-day coma. An MRI scan on 19 August revealed extensive brain damage. His life remains in grave danger. Palestinian lawyer Mohammed Allan, on hunger strike since 16 June, fell into a coma on 14 August and is now in intensive care in Israel’s Barzilai Medical Center. He is no longer under guard, or shackled, and his family can visit him. The High Court decision was based on his medical condition alone – a 19 August MRI scan revealed extensive brain damage, caused by vitamin deficiency - and took no account of the legality of his detention. The court ruled that, if there is no improvement to the neurological damage, the detention order will be revoked entirely. If his health improves it can be re-imposed. Before the ruling, the Israeli military had tried to make him abandon his hunger strike, offering him release if he agreed to a period of exile and at another time a release date in November. He maintained that he should be released in September. On 19 August, an Israeli state representative said that if his condition was "irreversible and permanent”, thus rendering him unable “to resume his activities”, the state would lift the detention order immediately.

    The Cultural Dictionary and Directory Of people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds A resource to increase cultural understanding for service providers and encourage liaison between communities and key multicultural providers in the ACT A project of the Migrant and Refugee Settlement Services of the ACT Inc. With the support of the ACT Office of Multicultural, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs (Community Service Directory – ACT Government) Original publication by Sara Khalidi 1997 Revised and Edited by Fiona McIlroy 2003 Revised and Edited by Hannah Neumayer 2012 Cultural Dictionary & Directory 2012 - Project of the Migrant and Refugee Settlement Services of the ACT Inc. 1 PREFACE TO THE CULTURAL DICTIONARY The wealth of cultural diversity in Australia is arguably one of its major assets. Acknowledgement of difference and acceptance of each person’s unique qualities, as well as their particular blend of cultural influences can assist people to grow in cultural richness and social strength. However more often than not, perceptions and attitudes are based on the limited understandings we currently hold, and we are all prone to prejudice. The key to cultural understanding lies in an open mind. Given the rise in expressions of racist attitudes in recent times, it is more important than ever to remember that general statements about cultural backgrounds can lead to stereotyping. Stereotyping often undervalues individuals and cultures, and can be based on mistaken assumptions. It must be noted that the brief and general descriptions of a culture or country, such as the snapshots in this Cultural Dictionary, should never be applied in a blanket way to any individual or group.

  • 2007 Israeli Democracy Index Is Dedicated to Captain Zur Zarhi from Nahalal, a Beloved Friend Who Went to War and Did Not Come Back
    Auditing Israeli Democracy – 2007 Cohesion in a Divided Society Asher Arian, Nir Atmor, Yael Hadar The Israel Democracy Institute is an independent, non-partisan body on the seam of academia and politics. The Institute proposes policy recommendations and reforms for government and public administration agencies. In its plans and endeavors, the Institute strives to support the institutions of Israel’s developing democracy and consolidate its values. The Institute’s research is followed up by practical recommendations, seeking to improve governance in Israel and foster a long-term vision for a stable democratic regime adapted to the structure, the values, and the norms of Israeli society. The Institute aspires to further public discourse in Israel on the issues placed on the national agenda, to promote structural, political, and economic reforms, to serve as a consulting body to decision-makers and the broad public, to provide information, and present comparative research. Researchers at the Israel Democracy Institute are leading academics directing projects in various areas of society and governance in Israel. The IDI Press produces, markets, and distributes the results of their work in several series of books (“The Democracy Library”), policy papers, the Caesarea Forum Series, periodicals, and conference proceedings. The Guttman Center was established in its present form in 1998, when the Guttman Institute for Applied Social Research became part of the Israel Democracy Institute. Professor Louis Guttman founded the original Institute in 1949 as a pioneering center for the study of public opinion and the advancement of social science methodology. The goal of the Guttman Center is to enrich public discourse on issues of public policy through the information retrieved from the Center’s databases and through public opinion surveys conducted by the Center.

  • The Role of Ultra-Orthodox Political Parties in Israeli Democracy
    Luke Howson University of Liverpool The Role of Ultra-Orthodox Political Parties in Israeli Democracy Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy By Luke Howson July 2014 Committee: Clive Jones, BA (Hons) MA, PhD Prof Jon Tonge, PhD 1 Luke Howson University of Liverpool © 2014 Luke Howson All Rights Reserved 2 Luke Howson University of Liverpool Abstract This thesis focuses on the role of ultra-orthodox party Shas within the Israeli state as a means to explore wider themes and divisions in Israeli society. Without underestimating the significance of security and conflict within the structure of the Israeli state, in this thesis the Arab–Jewish relationship is viewed as just one important cleavage within the Israeli state. Instead of focusing on this single cleavage, this thesis explores the complex structure of cleavages at the heart of the Israeli political system. It introduces the concept of a ‘cleavage pyramid’, whereby divisions are of different saliency to different groups. At the top of the pyramid is division between Arabs and Jews, but one rung down from this are the intra-Jewish divisions, be they religious, ethnic or political in nature. In the case of Shas, the religious and ethnic elements are the most salient. The secular–religious divide is a key fault line in Israel and one in which ultra-orthodox parties like Shas are at the forefront. They and their politically secular counterparts form a key division in Israel, and an exploration of Shas is an insightful means of exploring this division further, its history and causes, and how these groups interact politically.

  • Settlement Snafu | the Washington Institute
    MENU Policy Analysis / Articles & Op-Eds Settlement Snafu by David Makovsky Mar 16, 2010 ABOUT THE AUTHORS David Makovsky David Makovsky is the Ziegler distinguished fellow at The Washington Institute and director of the Koret Project on Arab-Israel Relations. Articles & Testimony he embarrassment over Israel's announcement of 1,600 new housing units during U.S. Vice President Joe T Biden's visit has been elevated to an outright controversy with the public rebuke issued by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. On Thursday, Biden affirmed that the U.S.-Israel relationship is "impervious to any shifts in either country," and that "[n]o matter what challenges we face, this bond will endure." Just a day later, however, according to State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley, Clinton told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by phone that "the Israeli government needed to demonstrate not just through words, but through specific actions, that they are committed to this relationship [italics added] and to the peace process." The secretary proceeded to amplify her rebuke through a series of TV interviews. The United States is justifiably upset over the incident. But its alliance with Israel is crucial for both sides. An Israel that is weakened in its relationship with the United States will not be strong enough to take risks for peace. Moreover, the United States looks bad when a statement by its own vice president on Thursday is being put into serious question by the State Department spokesman on Friday. Fortunately, the U.S.-Israel relationship still has a solid core. There have been almost a dozen separate high-level visits to each country in just the last two months, as the two countries are cooperating extremely closely in their efforts to prevent Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon.
