Until recently, issues surrounding ethnic-linked inequality, whether between Jews and Arabs or between Jewish ethnic groups, have dominated research on stratification in Israel to the exclusion of other dimensions. Rapidly growing inequality in Israeli society, and its intergenerational persistence, however, have generated several new trends in research. The chapters included in this volume represent the range and depth of recent developments in the study of social stratification, mobility, and inequality. Although they address a variety of issues, they have in common a focus on the institutional mechanisms that govern the allocation of rewards.The volume is divided into five parts: Part 1, The Role of Education in the Stratification Process; Part 2, Class and Intergenerational Process; Part 3, The Ethnic Organization of the Labor Market; Part 4, Gender in the Stratification Process; Part 5, The State and the Stratification Process. Some chapters apply to Israel classical status attainment models and labor market research, developed primarily in American sociology, highlighting the peculiarities of Israeli society. Others start out with particular characteristics of Israeli society, most notably the centrality of the state apparatus, and explore their consequences for social stratification. Gender inequality inside and outside the military is examined as well as the issue of gender-related labor market inequality. Together these chapters provide a comprehensive picture of the structure of domination and subordination in various spheres of Israeli society, ranging from educational institutions to the labor market, housing, standard of living, and the cultural arena.This volume portrays the multiple dimensions of stratification and inequality in Israel by bringing together some of the most informative sociological research conducted during the past decade. It will be of particular interest to sociologists, social scientists, and students of Judaica.

Moshe Semyonov and Noah Lewin-Epstein
When Israel gained its independence in 1948, its population amounted to 600,000 Jews and 156,000 non-Jews (mostly Moslem and Christian-Palestinian). Fifty-four years later, the size of the Israeli population has increased almost nine-fold. Specifically, by the year 2002 the population of Israel approached 6.5 million persons, 80 percent of which are Jews. In addition to its 6.5 million citizens, Israel has recently become home to more than 300,000 foreign workers, half of which do not have valid working permits and are considered illegal labor migrants. The dramatic growth of the Israeli population and the change in its ethnic composition were accompanied by increasing socioeconomic and ethnic inequalities. In its early days, Israel was characterized by low rates of inequality. It was a society of immigrants most of whom were refugees who reached it shores with little belongings. Very few families arrived with a substantial fortune and fewer yet had the chance of accumulating a fortune in the country. The state that had just emerged from a long and bloody war was abruptly faced with the task of settling hundreds of thousands of immigrants and concomitantly with developing the economys infrastructure. The above constraints, along with a centralist-socialist ideology, resulted in rather low and fairly undifferentiated levels of living during the first two decades of Israels independence. From the late 1960s, however, Israels economy expanded rapidly and the economic gaps between the rich and the poor widened steadily.
