  Arab citizens in an Israeli city: action and discourse in public programmes
 
 
Title: Arab citizens in an Israeli city: action and discourse in public programmes
Author: Menahem, Gila
Appeared in: Ethnic and racial studies
Paging: Volume 21 (1998) nr. 3 pages 545-557
Year: 1998-05-01
Contents: The present study analyses the status of the Arab minority in Israel, as revealed in Project Renewal, one of the largest and most ambitious programmes implemented in the country during the 1980s. The analysis discloses how conflicts over symbolic issues, such as the definition of the collective's boundaries, found their way on to the Project Renewal agenda, and how they affected the project's dynamics. The article analyses the intensity of the conflicts evoked by the issue of citizen participation in the neighbourhood. It interprets the clashes over neighbourhood representation as essentially resulting from a core conflict, one in which the very boundaries of Israel's moral community appeared to be at stake. The conclusions are based on an analytical distinction between those components of the programme that may be viewed as related to liberal citizenship rights, and those pertaining to republican citizenship rights, that is, elements touching upon the definition of the boundaries of the social collective and the moral community.
