Beschreibung
This book asks a central question: Does integrated education, aimed at peace and equality, influence life beyond school walls as its founders hoped? Or does the Israeli-Palestinian conflict turn the integrated school space into a battleground? The author, Dr. Amin Khalaf, concludes that the power imbalance between the Jewish majority and the Palestinian minority does not disappear within the framework of joint education, and the impact of these schools on Israeli society remains quite limited. Nevertheless, he demonstrates that integrated education has also borne fruit. The desire to maintain an equal partnership through educational frameworks holds the potential for positive environmental influence, even if it has not yet been fully realized.
