In this conference we noticed that little has been said about the \u003cbr\u003eimpact of Israel's complex mosaic of ethnic groups on the shaping of the \u003cbr\u003ecountry's social and spatial frontiers. We have therefore endeavored to \u003cbr\u003ebring together a number of perspectives on the evolution of ethnic \u003cbr\u003efrontiers in Israel and the role they play in shaping the cultural landscape \u003cbr\u003eof this country. Yet we later realized that \"\"frontier\"\" is too limited a term, \u003cbr\u003eand that it may through various processes have turned into a mosaic of \u003cbr\u003espatial, social, economic, and political peripheries. More specifically we \u003cbr\u003eattempted to present the process of frontier development as perceived by \u003cbr\u003eIsrael's ethnic and national minorities. We therefore invited contributions \u003cbr\u003efrom various other Israeli experts on these issues: geographers, sociologists, \u003cbr\u003eanthropologists, and political scientists, which have now become \u003cbr\u003ethe main body of chapters in this book. We trust that they are representative \u003cbr\u003eof the main dimensions of the subject.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Oren Yiftachel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367017369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367017361\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Oren Yiftachel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086492971263,"sku":"9780367017361","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8c3d2370-2b16-403c-928d-906d9d9deeb8.jpg?v=1769094980","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ethnic-frontiers-and-peripheries-oren-yiftachel-9780367017361","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
