Geopolitical developments, particularly the continuous conflict with its Arab state neighbors, affected all spheres of life including education. Demographically, changing patterns of Jewish immigration has transformed the Jewish population several times from predominantly European in the late 1940s to Middle-Eastern during the late 1950s and 1960s and back to European following mass immigration from the former Soviet Union in the late 1980s and 1990s. These demographic changes, including waves of immigrants from Ethiopia, have raised issues of equality in educational policies. The authors of this book provide historical backround and analyses of Israel's educational system that they believe is on the crossroads of still another transformation as a result of the prospects of peace in the region.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52685506773265,"sku":"NLS9780313302695","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780313302695.jpg?v=1762325759"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-yaacov-iram.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
