"This book analyzes the development of the Israeli economy in its historical context.
It shows how the ideology of the dominant group in the Zionist movement led to the
development of agriculture , thus meeting the preconditions for successful industrialization
. Remarkable, if uneven, growth has taken place, with increasing allocations for defense.
Regional isolation led to the emphasis on high-quality exports for developed markets
that has stimulated the technological base. Israel has benefi ted from mass immigration
and increased access to foreign capital - factors that have transformed the economy.
The book includes chapters on the development of the Jewish community in Palestine
during the British Mandate ; macroeconomic developments and economic policy; globalization
and high technology ; defense ; the economics of the Arab minority; Israeli settlements
and relations with the Palestinians ; and the role of religion. It concludes with
an examination of the socioeconomic divisions that have widened as the economy has
grown"--Provided by publisher.
