Changes in land use in Jewish and Arab municipalities, 2003-13 / Shahor, Tal; Simonovich, Javier; Sharabi, Moshe   Journal Article
Shahor, Tal Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article compares the amount of land designated for various uses in the Jewish and Arab municipalities in Israel between the years 2003–13. It is generally accepted that the Arab-Jewish conflict in Israel is heavily based on land ownership. This conflict still has implications for the policies and actions of the State of Israel on the one hand, and the attitudes and behaviours of the Arab population on the other. Two main conclusions emerge from this article. The first is that in 2013, the area per capita used for residential living in Arab localities was larger, presumably because of the lack of high-rise buildings. The second conclusion is that the areas designated for economic and public purposes in the Arab sector are much smaller. The Israeli government should therefore allocate additional government land to the Arab local authorities.

Shahor, Tal Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Social Work as a profession plays a fundamental role in the development of the state, especially in assisting the most vulnerable parts of the population by way of contributing to the building of a fairer society and collective solidarity. Social work in Israel finds its professional space in several diverse fields with social work professionals using a wide variety of methodologies with individuals, groups and communities. This article discusses the evolution of the social work profession since Israel’s establishment in 1948, the welfare perspective that evolved over the years, and the vicissitudes in its underlying social values and ethical codes.

Wage gap between men and women in Israel / Shahor, Tal; Simonovich, Javier; Sharabi, Moshe   Journal Article
Shahor, Tal Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Using the Mincer equation and the Oaxaca decomposition, this article examines what part of the gender wage gap in Israel during the years 2005–16 can be explained by differences in demographic attributes and preferences of men and women and what part cannot be explained by these variables, hence indicates gender discrimination. Findings show that during the examined period, there was no systematic change in the unexplained wage gap. However, in the years 2017–18, the unexplained wage gap between men and women began to decrease.
