Perceiving Ethnic Space: Israeli Arabs' Cognition of the Central Galilee
Abstract
The regional awareness of the Israeli Arab population in the valley of Sakhnin stresses the division of space along ethnic lines. Most of the interviewers identified a clear distinction between Arab and Jewish regions in Israel. There was a vital sense of belonging (insideness) attached to the Arab regions, in total contrast to the way in which Jewish spaces were perceived (outsideness).References
