This book, first published in 1969, presents a comprehensive survey and analysis of the political behaviour of the Arabs in Israel, covering the period from the founding of the State to the Six-Day War in 1967. While the socio-economic background is outlined, the chief emphasis is on the political attitudes of this minority and its reactions to the modernization of political structures. The main chapters deal with adaptation versus alienation; cultural change and its reflection in politics; political organizations; voting behaviour in parliamentary, local, and trade union elections; leadership and the foci of political activity. Materials used for research included the Israeli press, both in Arabic and Hebrew, the literature produced by the Arabs in Israel, official publications and private reports, as well as interviews conducted with Arabs from all over the country.

Increased interest in international politics with the idea of Pan-Islam has generated many contradictory interpretations. The first and only comprehensive book, in any language, on the politics of Pan-Islam, this non-partisan treatment provides a timely examination of politics, ideologies, and movements of Pan-Islam over the last 120 years. Based on archival and other primary sources, this study covers a broad area, including Morocco, India, Pakistan, Russia, Turkey, and the Arabian Peninsula.

The Politics of Pan-Islam: Ideology and Organization

Oxford University Press

<p>This original study focuses on the growing politicization and radicalization of the Arab minority within Israel--excluding the Israeli-administered territories--from 1967 to the present. Using both written and oral sources, Landau analyzes the diverse political views and attitudes of Muslims, Christians, and Druzes in Israel. Examining trends among the general Arab population in Israel, he looks specifically at political behavior and struggles, organizations, problems of identity, electoral trends, education, language, and literature.<br></p>

The unity of all Muslim believers is in one sense a given: Islam forms a complete moral, cultural, legal, social, and political system. Yet Islamic unity is also a political goal, one that has had influential and controversial expression in the ideal known as Pan-Islam. Jacob Landau's renowned study is the authoritative treatment of the Pan-Islamic movement over the last 120 years. Covering a broad area of the Islamic world including Morocco, South Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula, this timely work has now been expanded to treat recent developments in the ex-Soviet Republics of the Caucases and Central Asia.
