the objectives of the Ministry of Labor. It seems an unconsidered idea.
Therefore, the use of Palestinian labor in the place of this segment of the
Jewish labor force seems very unlikely to promote the mobility of the re-
placed Jewish labor into high technology production, where shortage in man-
power prevails. It provides, indirectly, an alternative for immigration
of trained Jewish manpower from the West. The integration of this Pales-
tinian labor force, on the one hand, intensifies the imperative of Aliyah
on the basis of the demographic threat its presence represents, and can also
promote, though very indirectly, material incentives for immigration --
better wages, housing, etc., to the newcomers at the expense of the heavy
appropriation of non-citizen Palestinian labor force value. The appropria-
tion of a higher surplus value from Palestinian workers can allow for main-
taining a labor aristocracy not at the expense of capital -- without decline
in the rates of profit. The conquest of Palestinian labor in Israel today,
indirectly constitutes a material incentive for Jewish immigration from the
West, the only alternative source of labor likely to accommodate both the
economic and the political objectives simultaneously.
The Immigration Potential: Incentives and Disincentives
In the following, we examine the transformation in immigration in-
centives over time and in response to the inflow of foreign investment
capital, and the implications of those transformations on the future of
Aliyah.
In the Yeshuv, prior to the establishment of the State, Zionist
leaders relied primarily on ideological, and secondarily on material, in-
centives for Jewish immigration into Palestine. The pioneer (Hehalutz)
