Social Critique and Commitment: Essays in Honor of Henry Rosenfeld is a compilation of primarily original essays that deal with Israel from a critical position. The essays touch upon central concerns such as the Arab-Israeli conflict, Arabs in Israel, the economy, and social policy. A second emphasis characterizing the volume and reflecting the work of Professor Rosenfeld is a sharp and critical analysis of ethnographic data, mostly with regard to Israeli society, but in certain cases ranging beyond. In addition to articles addressing the unraveling of Israel's welfare network, the impact of neo-liberal economic policies, the changing societal attitudes toward the rule of law, are essays dealing with international terror, spirit possession, the Bedouin of Sinai, and ethnic cleansing. The essays highlight the conflicted nature of Israeli society and emphasize that what is occurring on this small canvas has ramifications going beyond the particular and specific, bearing regional and indeed world-wide implication.
