Full textAbstract:
Abstract New caregiving solutions are increasingly in demand within families undergoing rapid modernization processes such as the Arab Muslim family in Israel. According to patriarchal collectivist values, caregiving for aging men is provided by women within the extended Arab Muslim family. Modernization within the Arab Muslim society has enabled women to acquire higher education and increased employment opportunities outside the household. Therefore, older Arab Muslim widowers in need for caregiving can depend less on their daughters or daughter’s in-law and as such seek other solutions. The aim of this presentation is to describe and examine the caregiving role of late life remarriage for older Arab Muslim widowers. Using a phenomenology framework, semi-structured qualitative interviews for understanding the experience of late life remarriage and its meaning were conducted with 14 Arab Muslim widowers who remarried between age 70 and 80, to never married middle-aged women. Findings describe and illustrate caregiving as a primary motivation for late life remarriage, reasons for caregiving as motivation to remarry and the wife’s role as located between caregiver and spouse. Conclusions discuss the meaning of late life remarriage as a micro caregiving solution, dealing with modernization processes alongside preserving patriarchal collectivist values and gender-based roles.

In Three Mothers; Three Daughters: Palestinian Women's Stories, RafiqaOthman and Michael Gorkin present six remarkable life narratives fromPalestinian women living in the Occupied Territories and Israel. By selectingthree mother/daughter pairs from very different social and political circumstances,they represent, in dramatic microcosm, many elements of thetwentieth-century Palestinian experience. Moreover, these stories have astunning universal appeal, transcending their specific national context byrevealing complicated issues of gender and generational relations familiarthroughout the world. In this way, Gorkin and Othman have crafted an oralhistory that is both specific to - and transcendent of - Palestine.From the outset of their collaboration, Gorkin and Othman wrestledwith their complex personal positions and relationship, and used their prefaceand epilogue to frame their study in these terms. Gorkin is an AmericanJew living in Israel; Othman is a Palestinian Muslim from Abu Ghosh, theonly Arab village on the Israeli side of the Green Line in the Jerusalem areato survive the 1948-49 war. Their collaboration was not only controversialbecause one is a Jew and the other an Arab, but also because being anunmarried woman, Othman confronted the issue of 'ayb (shame) fallingupon her family if society misjudged her association with her male collalrorator. Moreover, several of the project's six informants would not speakwith Gorkin because he is a man.Thus, Othman juggled a difficult problem that often faces scholars conductinganthropological research within their societies: a complicated statusas both an insider and an outsider. It is to her credit that she deals directlywith this issue. Othman points out her position as a confidante at times, anddoes not hesitate to draw on a common sense of "sisterhood" to relate towomen's struggles. However, as an Arab living inside Israel, her ability tounderstand the experiences of Palestinians living under the occupation is difficultand painful. She reminds the reader that Palestinian experiences are asdiverse as any others, and that at times she is as much a political outsider asGorkin.The three mother/daughter pairs come from a relatively small territorialradius. However, the historical events and the borders emerging from ...

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This study investigates tannaitic material and passages from the Jerusalem Talmud that address the integration of the descendants of converts into Israel. These texts focus on two main legal issues: the eligibility of converts’ daughters for marriage with priests; and, the recitation of certain liturgical formulae, which indicate Israelite lineage, by converts’ offspring. While tannaitic literature presents competing views on the incorporation of converts’ progeny into Israelite society, the Yerushalmi seems to prioritize facilitating the absorption of converts and their descendants into Israel. While scholars have often considered these sources in terms of stringency and leniency, I view these differences as major (even revolutionary) changes that are based on distinct legal models. I suggest that the Roman understanding of citizenship and the Roman framework for determining the status of freed slaves were among the factors that influenced and eventually enabled the acceptance of converts’ descendants as full members of Israel.

This article focuses on organizations and social patterns operating within the Eritrean asylum community in Israel. We explore both community-based aid organizations and opposition groups, which together constitute, as we demonstrate, an Eritrean transnational civil society. The Eritrean community was created in Israel during the last few years with the arrival of Eritrean nationals fleeing their homeland and seeking protection. In our analysis, we consider how these organizations have developed as a unified exiled civil society and how they operate in the context of their State of origin (Eritrea) and of their State of asylum (Israel), while both States may effectively be present and/or absent in the community members’ lives, such that the resulting community comprises a unique transnational state.

Full textAbstract:
In Israel, a large number and a wide range of non-governmental volunteering organizations exist in various fields. At the same time, due to the multiplicity of security incidents and other national crises, there are also numerous independent volunteer initiatives emerging within specific communities, small communities, or cities. Private initiatives that started as small volunteer aid have grown mainly thanks to the technological possibilities that enable the transfer of information about a crisis and the needs associated with it. This study examines the volunteers’ perception of effectiveness in a self-organized spontaneous setting, and their sense of belonging to the community and the State of Israel. This article presents a case study of unorganized, spontaneous volunteer activity in Israel in situations of stress and crisis. The study is based on participant observation and semi-structured interviews with those who engaged in spontaneous self-organized volunteer activity. The study findings show that mobilizing volunteers through WhatsApp messages strengthened the sense of effectiveness in performing the task, fostered the volunteers’ sense of belonging to their community, and contributed to the rapid achievement of the task. The study also highlights the socio-moral dimensions that intensify in such a volunteering process and the individual’s feelings about his place in society and his observation of society’s behaviour in general.

This paper scrutinized the economic, social, and affecting support systems of aged widows of sixty years who live in the People's Republic of Bangladesh. It aims to locate the socio-economic conditions, resources, and impact on aged widows. In the People's Republic of Bangladesh, there's a scarcity of a comprehensive formal arranged for aged widows. Usually, social and economic supports for aged widows come back from their sons, daughters, neighbors, and society members. The largest part of aged widows doesn’t have regular financial support. Insufficient economic aid comes from the govt. within the shape of the widow and aged allowance. Study findings point out that aged widows can coexist in the family but they cannot make family decisions. Besides, in most of cases they don’t get any facilities like respect and medical facilities. This can be causative to the inflated risk for aged widows who are depending on the support of their families. This study reports on a field survey during which one hundred aged widows of sixty years and over were interviewed and analyzed by the exploitation of excel.

"The Reinforcement of the ‘Dowry for Groom’ Tradition in Customary Marriages of West Sumatra’s Pariaman Society." Samarah: Jurnal Hukum Keluarga dan Hukum Islam 7, no. 1 (March 31, 2023): 555. http://dx.doi.org/10.22373/sjhk.v7i1.15872.
Full textAbstract:
In contrast to the customary mahar or dowry system in typical Indonesian marriages, West Sumatra's Minangkabau people in Pariaman practice a unique ‘dowry for groom’ tradition, in which the bride pays a dowry to the bridegroom based on his social status. Payment is adjusted according to the social status of the man and is a must for the marriage to take place. This paper aims to examine the persistence and strengthening of the ‘dowry for groom’ tradition in the Pariaman Muslim community in West Sumatra by focusing on three main issues, namely the practice of ‘dowry for groom’ in the Pariaman community; factors that make the ‘dowry for groom’ tradition survive among Pariaman Muslims in the midst of the swift currents of modernization and globalization; and the mechanism of social reproduction of the 'dowry for men' tradition in the Pariaman community. The study is an empirical legal research using sociological theory as an analytical tool. Data is collected through interviews, observation and literature studies. The findings reveal that the reinforcement of the 'dowry for groom' tradition in Pariaman society is supported by several fundamental factors, including the widespread practice and support from the community, religious and traditional leaders, the local government, and the younger generation. The 'dowry for groom' tradition in Pariaman reflects the values of Muslim identity, such as adherence to religious teachings by finding husbands for daughters and maintaining a spirit of mutual aid, while also protecting the Minangkabau institution of ninik mamak (elders) and strengthening women's position as the true "monarchs" in Minangkabau society. Further research could explore more extensive meanings related to the 'dowry for groom' tradition

Full textAbstract:
In this article, Luhmann's system theory is used as a theoretical framework for analysing the way risk communicators view their social functions. Narrated experiences from risk communicators in practice facilitate an understanding of risk communication as both an external irritation to society and part of the mass communication system. They also aid in clarifying how perceptions of audiences are reflected in the risk-communication strategies. The analysis is based on qualitative data collected from in-depth interviews conducted with 22 risk communicators (scientific professionals, spokespeople and journalists) in Israel. Thematic areas reflected in interviewees' reported strategies embody their perception of audiences. Those themes include: the reduction of complexities; coding and sorting of information; autopoiesis (realisation/non-realisation of the risk); rationality; inherent paradoxes; and schema formation. In sum, the findings suggest that risk communicators play a major role in defining, creating and producing audiences for the mass communication system.

Full textAbstract:
The low representation of minority groups in higher education challenges many countries. Integrating these groups requires the presence of a multi-faceted support system to include financial aid, educational support, and cultural adaptation of content, but most of the support is directed to bachelor's degrees. The current study aims to examine differences in measures of success for a bachelor’s degree and those for a master’s degree among Ultra-orthodox women in Israel. The study was carried out using a quantitative paradigm and was based on 116 female students who completed master's degrees in special programs for Ultra-orthodox women. The findings indicate that measures of success were found to be significantly higher in advanced degree studies than in bachelor’s degree studies. At the same time, it appears that the components of making a degree accessible for ultra-orthodox society are also considered higher for master’s degrees. This shows that the importance of cultural adaptation does not end with a bachelor’s degree, and it is very important for master’s degrees A culturally adapted environment, and specifically, content that is suitable for minorities, encourages a sense of belonging, which has been found to contribute to success.

This study is an attempt to understand how PNGO’s are impacted as a result of the Israel- Palestine conflict today, while touching upon issues such as the Gaza blockade, relief aid, political participation, Hamas and the PA, and the occupation. I have had the opportunity of coming into contact with four different PNGO workers based in the Gaza Strip, and conducted qualitative structured interviews with each of them. They possess key insights as they exist at the center of the research problem. Through the theoretical lens of Paul Lederach (1997) and the utilization of the Directed Content Analysis (DCA) method, the structured interviews were analyzed in order to explore both the factors that Gazan PNGO workers identified as having an effect on their organization, as well as how it affects their organizational capacity and peace work.

Chapter 6 examines the effectiveness of federal financial aid policies in expanding women’s access to higher education and the social and economic building blocks of full citizenship. While the GI Bill significantly expanded men’s access to college, it offered very little support for women interested in pursuing college degrees. Subsequently enacted financial aid programs promoted greater gender equality in socioeconomic status by increasing the probability that women would attain advanced levels of education. By making college more affordable, increasing the amount of time that students can devote to academic work, and promoting undergraduate degree completion, student financial aid programs constitute central mechanisms by which US lawmakers have supported equal social citizenship for women and men. By significantly increasing women’s access to college degrees and the social and economic benefits that are associated with higher education, landmark higher education policies have supported women’s full incorporation into American society.

Abstract Mendlinger looks at the ethnically pluralistic society of Israel to explore how young women acquire the knowledge informing their health behaviors including those related to menstruation. Beginning with the origin story of her research agenda at a time of mass immigration to Israel, she then offers the main findings from 48 in-depth interviews with mothers and daughters that fall into several categories of mother-and-daughter dyads: native-born Israelis and those composed of immigrants from North Africa, Europe, the Former Soviet Union (FSU), United States or Canada, and Ethiopia, each bringing traditional knowledge and practices to bear on what it means to menstruate. Mendlinger’s work, anchored by the voices of women, vividly demonstrates that four types of knowledge: traditional, embodied, technical, and authoritative that are passed generationally from mother to daughter change through the immigration process.

Full textAbstract:
Hebrew incunabula from the collection of the National Library of Israel contain a vast amount of manuscript annotations, many of them of historical, philological, linguistic, and palaeographical interest. The paper presents a few examples of owners’ notes that shed light on the history of books in early modern Jewish communities. From the book owned by the well-known rabbi Moses Alashkar, to a reference to the participation of rabbi Mordecai Dato in a family ceremony, and the extensive glosses of Samuel Lerma, to the joyful message of an unnamed Jew whose daughter had been released from captivity. Such material is a valuable resource for research on the distribution and use of early Hebrew printed books in Europe and beyond.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter addresses Philo's refashioning of the biblical women in the Exposition of the Law, which differs significantly from his interpretation of them in Allegorical Commentary. They no longer symbolize the dangerous body with its passions, best to be left behind, but rather have become exemplary wives, mothers, and daughters who play an active role in the history of Israel. This dramatic change of perspective can be explained in terms of Philo's move from Alexandria to Rome. While gender issues were not discussed in the philosophical circles of his home city, he later encountered lively philosophical discussions in Rome on the role of women in society. His new image of the biblical women in the Exposition closely corresponds to his view of the Roman empress Livia, whose clear-sightedness, strength, and loyalty he appreciates. The biblical women likewise become real historical figures whom Philo interprets sympathetically from within.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines the critique of the patrilineal model within current anthropological literature in order to reconsider the claim that ancient Israel was a pure patrilineal society. While biblical writers valued patrilineality and preserved that value explicitly within the paternal begettings, known in Hebrew as the tôlēdôt, they consistently followed the exclusively paternal genealogies with narratives that introduced households. The biblical house, as opposed to the patriline, contained fathers, mothers, wives, concubines, slave wives, firstborn sons, second-born sons, daughters, foreigners, and slaves. The introduction of women and maternally defined subgroups of kin disrupts the neatness of a patrilineal genealogy, marking divisions within a paternal line. When the biblical patriline becomes a noisy, fully peopled house, we find not only a father and his firstborn son, but a series of maternally aligned kin groups with specific kinship labels that delineate maternal sub-houses within the larger house of the father.

The objectives were to continue collection of semen for the US dairy bull DNA repository, to conduct a systematic search of the Holstein genome for economically significant economic trait loci (ETL), to develop and refine statistical techniques for the analysis of the data generated, and to confirm significant effects by genotyping daughters i Israel and additional US sons. One-thousand-seventy-six sons of eight US grandsires were genotyped for 174 microsatellites located on all 29 autosomes. ETL were detected for milk production traits on seven chromosomes. ETL for milk and fat yield and fat and protein percentage on BTA3 was mapped to between the markers BL41 and TGLA263. The 95% confidence interval for the ETL affecting fat percentage on BTA14 localized this ETL between the contromere and chromosome position 11 cM. This ETL was verified in the Israeli cattle population by genotyping an independent sample of cows from seven families. The radiation hybrid data for the centromeric region of BTA14 is defined by a single linkage group. Order of Type I genes within this region, CYC-FADK-TG-SQLE, is conserved between human and cattle. Thus, HSA8, the human homologue of BTA14, can be used to identify candidate genes for the ETL.
