America immigrant Jews. The figures indicate a distinctive occupational
structure of employment for each group. This is especially prominent in
the case of the Oriental-Jews (Column 4), who tend to be located mid-way
between the Arab and the rest of the Jewish citizens. This position was
determined before, and persisted even after, the 1967-War. A comparison
between the differential location in the present and previous technical
division of labor will enlighten our understanding of prospective trends.
For this matter, we try to compare Ben-Porath's findings, based on
Labor Force Surveys and: the 1961 Census of Population and Housing, with
the figures presented in Table C. This comparison is methodologically
appropriate, since both periods represent the beginning of an economic
boom. Also, because until 1972, L.F.S. were based on the 1961 classifi-
cation of occupational categories.
According to Yoram Ben-Porath, the 1963 occupational structure of
employment highlights the four following features:
1. "The percentage of farmers is much higher among Arabs
than among Jews. The percentage of farmers among the Asia-
Africa immigrants is higher than among all Jews but lower
than among the Arabs. The percentage of members of the
professions, administrative workers, clerks, merchants and
service workers is higher among Jews than among Arabs.
2. "The percentage of workers in manufacturing, construction
and crafts is approximately the same for Arabs and Jews;
however, in 1961, only one-tenth of Jews in this group
were unskilled laborers, while for Arabs, the proportion
was about one-third....The percentage of manual workers
among Asia-Africa immigrants is higher than among total
Jews, but lower than among Arabs.
3. "There are fewer Jews in technical and professional than
in managerial, administrative and clerical occupations};
among the non-Jews the oreder is reversed. New immigrants
from Asia show the same pattern as all Jews in this respect.
And it is of some significance that Arabs and Asia~Africa
Jews differ.
