IV. The Industrial Structure of Employment of Palestinians Who Are
Citizens of Israel
Previously, we have shown that Arab penetration into the Jewish
labor market has occurred since the early days of Zionist colonization.
More importantly, we have already demonstrated how this penetration took
place, despite systematic ideological and institutional impediments, in
order to allow for the formation of Jewish farming and working classes
in Palestine. The penetration of the indigenous Palestinian labor into
the modern Jewish sector was thus limited to the extent that it did not
interfere with that class formation.
The first massive penetration seems to happen during the first con-
struction boom, beginning in the late fifties and ending in the mid-six-
ties, when military regulations were removed to allow for the inflow of
this labor power into the Jewish sectors (recall Chapter II).
In this section we argue that the most dramatic growth in the rates
of citizen Palestinian penetration into the modern labor force of Israel
has occurred precisely in the years following the 1967 War, when tradi-
tional sources of Arab labor became abundantly available in the new
territories captured by Israel in that war. Table K-1 provides a strong
evidence in favor of this argument.
It analyzes the percentages of change in the demand for Arab labor
in Israel's industrial structure of employment, not only historically
during different historical phases, but also comparatively with those of
the Jewish population. As the latter constitute the sovereign majority - تاريخ
