Summary/Abstract
This paper discusses the reproduction of hegemony and social hierarchy through education. It brings together two case studies of marginal groups at a university-Russian Jewish immigrants and Palestinian Israeli women-who make sense of their position in social hierarchies and power relations through constant interpretative work on the various dimensions of university knowledge. The article reveals how marginal actors' interpretations of knowledge simultaneously are guided by students' positioning vis-à-vis the dominant collective and also articulate and redesign positioning. The two groups redesign their marginalities vis-à-vis the Israeli-Jewish collective by transforming knowledge to identity. In so doing, these groups reproduce national borders of Israeli social hierarchy, while working to change the meaning of these borders for their group's positioning.

Russians' in Israel as a post-Soviet subject: implementing the civilizational repertoire
/ Lerner, Julia
Lerner, Julia
Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication
2011.
Summary/Abstract
This article argues that the post-Soviet perspective on Russians in Israel allows a deeper understanding of this collective's extreme socio-cultural heterogeneity and opens up the meanings of its 'Russianness' often taken for granted in research literature. Empirical examples in the article trace the meanings of key cultural and sociological categories - intelligentsia and ethnicity - in the post-Soviet context, and their implementation in the Russian-Israeli field. The article stresses the potency and dominance of these categories, as well as their pragmatic usage and modification within local political and ideological contexts. The contemporary manifestation of these categories preserves the 'civilizational' aspect of Russian-Soviet identity, allowing their creative use by this diasporic group.
