Peer-reviewed
scholarly article
The
2012 essay, "Surprising alliances for dwelling and citizenship:
Palestinian-Israeli participation in the mass housing protests of summer 2011,”
Yael Allweil claims that social inclusion into the Israeli tent protest was
contributed by economic status/homelessness instead of just being Israeli. The
thesis is built by examples and primary sources that Allweil comments being a
collaboration with Palestinian individuals. The purpose of the article was to
shy away the strict negation of pairing Israel and Palestine together in more
general terms in hopes of individuals looking at the protest as a form of
fighting for human rights instead of straight politics. The audience of article
is scholars and students analyzing the Israel tent movement in regards to the
strict motivations of the movement for the piece frames the protest as more
socioeconomic status but protest isn’t entirely exclusive based on nationality.
According to the piece, the audience should understand that majority of the
individuals are Israeli (because the protest started from the effects of the
Israeli government, but can allow individuals who can’t afford their homes to
join as well.
Arnold,
Kathleen R. Homelessness, Citizenship,
and Identity: Culture and Community in the Industrial Workers of the World.
SUNY Press, 2012. Print.
Peer-reviewed
scholarly works: identity/community specific
In
her 2012 book, Homelessness, Citizenship,
and Identity: Culture and Community in the Industrial Workers of the World,
Kathleen Arnold argues economic status and citizenship blend together for
homeless individuals to create a more solid identity. Arnold builds this thesis
by comparing and contrasting the two original identities (economic status and
citizenship) with other pieces of interpretations of other identities to formulate
a way to conclude a solidified identity. The purpose is to make a solid claim
that homelessness is a group that could be treated as their own in hopes that
modern issues related to homelessness can be treated as a public health crisis
around a specific group than on an individual basis. This book has a more
directed audience of political leaders and establishes a relationship with that
audience by framing the arguments with citations of policy and conclusions of
certain impacts the (American) economy may face.

Peer-reviewed
scholarly works: historical context
In their book, the one-state condition: occupation and democracy in Israel/Palestine,
published in 2012, Adi Ophir and Arielle Azoulay make the point that nationalism
disrupts the state’s democratic infrastructure into one that has citizenship
driven by separation instead of solidarity. The authors develop this thesis
with examples relating to specific instances of uproar from the citizens of
Israel/Palestine when merging with Arab peoples. The purpose of this book is to
outline how the government is Israel is being pressured from its citizens to
turn away from the democratic state for all inhabitants and become a
nationalist state focused on a single group in hopes to show how the government
of Israel is destabilized. The audience of this book is directed to scholars
and political students to understand foreign relations during this time in
accordance with Israeli politics and establishes a relationship with this
audience by providing specific details and instances of outrage from the
Israeli citizens and conclusions relating to the political ideologies
(nationalism, democracy, etc).

Haim. "The Arab Spring: A View from Israel." Middle East Journal of Culture and Communication 5.1 (2012): 42-57.
Peer-reviewed
scholarly article
In
the article “The Arab Spring: A View from Israel,” Haim Bresheeth argues that
the Arab Spring was a major influence on the Israel tent protest that occurred
in spring of 2011. The thesis was built on the historical context of the Arab
Spring and the ideological similarities of non-violence between the Arab Spring
and the tent protest in Israel. The purpose of the article was to scale the
successes and failures of the Arab Spring and tie the non-violent successes to
the non-violent protests in hope of framing the Arab Spring as a major success
because of such influence. The audience is more clearly focused on those who
want to understand the Arab Spring’s relationship with Israel and establishes a
relationship with that audience by focusing on the Arab Spring throughout the
article with other examples other than the tent protest. Though, this source
could be used as a way to understand different motivational factors of the
Israel tent protest.
Dery,
David. “Agenda setting and problem definition.” Policy Studies 21.1 (2000): 37-47.
Theoretical
peer-reviewed scholarly source/ historical context
In
the 2000 article “Agenda setting and problem definition,” David Dery states that,
once a problem is established and a movement as formed an agenda, the movement
needs legitimate demands that could be met by the other party (in this case the
Israeli government). The thesis is built on the events of the Israeli tent
protest in 1990 (a movement also about housing issues and government policy).
The purpose is to claim that a clear infrastructure and goal/agenda is
necessary for the success of a movement in hopes of creating a language around
the agenda of a movement when analyzing protest. The audience of the article is
directed at scholars and students analyzing a more general methodology of
protest by adding the focus of political agenda. A more specific audience could
focus on the methodology of agenda setting (which seems intuitively necessary)
with the Israeli tent protest of 1990. Devy establishes a relationship with the
audience by offering a framework of how the Israeli protest was effective and
analyzing the movements goals with the outcome.

Peer-reviewed
scholarly article
In
his article, “Israel's ‘tent protests’: The chilling effect of nationalism,” Uri
Gordon claims the Israel tent protest formed a decent collective direction that
the purpose, but lacked in the area of radical action. The thesis was developed
by looking at the context/goals of the protest and linked those goals to the
end result by tracking the progress of the protest over time. The purpose of
the article is to show the effect of loyalist discourses on protest
goals/actions in hope to exemplify how political stances can impact the results
of a protest with inaction. The audience of the article are sociologists and
scholar studying social movements who would be interested in the effects of politics
on the actions of a protest group by framing the analysis around protest theory.

scholarly works: protest specific
In
the 2000 book, the kibbutz: Awakening
from utopia, Daniel Gavron states the tent movement in the 1920s around the
kibbutz lays the foundation of tent protest around the earlier history of
Israel (those with historical and journalistic achievement). The thesis is
built on references dating back to the times of the 1920s to the 1950s around
the foundation of kibbutz. The purpose is to understand that “the tent” is
symbolic factor in the Israeli culture because it predates to the 1920s in hope
that the human race understands how the kibbutz movement reflecting values in
their “race.” The audience of this book is the scholars and those interested in
the history of tent protest for the framework of the book discusses the
different milestones of the kibbutz movement and the tent and how meaningful it
was to the Israeli culture.

Peer-reviewed
scholarly works: historical context
In
their collective book, Nonviolent
resistance in the second intifada: Activism and advocacy, Julie Norman and
Maia Hallward argues that the use of nonviolent activism is an effective method
for not melodramatizing a protest to a certain degree. The authors build this
thesis by taking the history of the conflict between Israel and Palestine and look
at the traditional use of nonviolence. The purpose of the book is to understand
that nonviolence has an effective placement in protest in hopes that those who
adopt the methodology of nonviolence can reap the benefits of not having to risk
being in extreme danger. The book has the directed audience of historians and
those analyzing protest methods and the book established a relationship with
the audience by presenting the information in a way that presents the
information in a chronological fashion.

Peer-reviewed
scholarly article
In
his 2011 article titled “Activising space: the spatial politics of the 2011
protest movement in Israel”, Nathan Marom states that the location of body
rhetoric (such as the tent protest of Israel) greatly influence the political
arena in favor of the protestors. Marom develops this thesis by establishing
historical context of the Arab Spring and analyzing the foci of the protest
camps. The purpose is to show the benefits of the location of the Israel tent
protest being in the streets in hope of having his audience understand a major
backbone to the tent protest. The rhetoric of the piece is directed at scholar
and students attempting to understand the effects of the spatial techniques the
tent protest implemented by presenting a framework for the location relating to
the city’s government.
Marteu,
Elisabeth. Civil organizations and
protest movements in Israel: mobilization around the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict. Springer, 2009. Print.
Peer-reviewed
scholarly works: historical context
In
her book, Civil organizations and protest
movements in Israel: mobilization around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Elisabeth
Marteu claims that the state of Israel being in conflict with Palestine has
caused tension that sprouted movements and protests focuses on new political
ideologies evolved a civil state that Israelis are more like to identify with
to form a movement. Marteu develops this
thesis by looking at the conflict between Israel and Palestine since the second
intifada of 2000 and identifying the protests that mobilized within that time.
The purpose of this analysis is to argue the idea that destabilized statehoods
like Israel are more likely to form protests because of the emergence of civil
society where individuals can form a massive collective action in hope that the
audience understands the protests are caused by the conflict and not the other
way around. The audience in particular are the scholars and historians trying
to understand the nature of the protest movements in Israel during the first
decade of the new millennium and the relationship with the audience is
established by the framing of the facts/historical events in a fashion that is
backed by analysis of civil society/ Israeli communities responding to the Israel-Palestine
conflict.

Peer-reviewed
scholarly works: identity/community specific
In
the 2009 book, the place of the
Mediterranean in modern Israeli identity, Alexandra Nocke states that the Mediterranean
geo-cultural assets influence the Israeli identity to become more solidified. The
thesis is built on lists of factors such as the sea, proximity of other
countries, the religions around the sea, and etc. The purpose of the book is to
claim the Israeli identity is unique to its location and prior susceptibility of
cultural influence from the neighboring states in hopes of noting how strong
the Israeli identity is to link Israelites together. The audience of the book
is scholars and students analyzing the protest of Israel in accordance to how
that identity is strong and unique to that state for the audience receives the
framework of how the Mediterranean helps establish Israeli identity.

action." Rationality and society
24.1 (2012): 73-105.
Theoretical
peer-reviewed scholarly source
In
his 2012 essay “Collective identity, rationality, and collective political
action,” Karl-Dieter Opp claims that identity indirectly influences protest in
a way that decreases the amount of political action (in account with a more established
identity). Opp develops his thesis by examining different propositions regarding
the relationship between identity and collective action by citing social
science studies. The purpose of the essay is to discuss/ analyze the
determinants of protest action and how it is related to a collective’s identification
in hopes that his audience understands that there is a negative correlation when
the intuitive thought would be there is a positive correlation. Opp directs his
argument at sociologists and scholars analyzing rhetoric by using data and
implementing new terms to change the conversation of identity and protest.

Michael. "The economic background of the social protest of summer
2011." State of the nation report:

Peer-reviewed
scholarly article
In
the 2011 article titled “The economic background of the social protest of
summer 2011,” Michael Shalev argued that the main motivation behind the Israel
tent protest is economic and it wasn’t until a later time when the protest
focused on changing public policy around health, education, transportation and
more. That thesis is mostly generated from data received in surveys and the change
in the cost of living over time. The purpose of the article is to place the
focus back on the initial motivations of the movement in hope of swaying the
focus away from potential analysts claiming the protest way around anarchy –
when really the protest was a form of making the statement that the cost of
living way unbearable. The audience would be the scholars and students focusing
on the Israel tent protest motivations in relation to the protest agenda by
framing the outline of the article with data and inferences and making the
historical facts clearly stated.
Tal,
David, ed. Israeli identity: between
Orient and Occident. Routledge, 2013. Print.
Peer-reviewed
scholarly works: identity/community specific
In
his 2013 book, Israeli identity: between
Orient and Occident, David Tal argues that Israeli identity is becoming a
more separate identity than the Jewish identity because of the immigration of Jewish
individuals from middle eastern countries. The author builds his thesis with
specific accounts of citizens in Israel (Israeli, Palestinian, and Arab) and
branching on the theories on the “collective pressure” of identity. The purpose
is to exemplify the effects of the tensions in Israel/Palestine on the identity
in hopes of making the Israeli identity distinct compared to the general Jewish
identity. The directed audience is scholars and students trying to compare the
specific Israeli identity and bringing meaning to the collective and the author
establishes a relationship that audience by framing the argument towards the
focus of identity and not specifically on historical artifacts.

Yair. "The politics of non-iconic space: Sushi, shisha, and a civic
promise in the 2011 summer protests in Israel." European Urban and Regional Studies 20.1 (2013): 150-154.
Peer-reviewed
scholarly article
In
his article “The politics of non-iconic space: Sushi, shisha, and a civic
promise in the 2011 summer protests in Israel,” Yair Wallach argues the reason
the protest gained the amount of support that it did was because the street was
not a major street in Israel – it had sushi and espresso. Wallach developed his
thesis by looking at the collective and the collective’s location and compared
it to the more historical protests that took place in the street. Wallach does
this with the purpose of showing how protestors were more humbled by joining in
an off-center stage fashion compared to the major town hall square of Jerusalem
in hope that it is understood that protests don’t need to be bolded letters and
flashy signs, but does the right technique that fits the protest specifically. The
audience of this article is scholars and Wallach establishes a relationship
with the audience by identifying with them (using the terms like “we”) in a way
that could shift the scholarly acceptance to understand iconic spaces/actions are
not necessary for a “successful” protest.
