Abstract

The formation of space in Israel is reexamined by locating spatial structure within social formation. Israeli society has been characterized by social conflict resulting from the uneven distribution of social, political and organizational power among social groups, and from the incompatible interests of each group. In its attempt to reproduce the social system, the social-democratic state has internalized part of the conflict but could not eliminate it. Geographically, the social conflict has evolved into a spatial one, assuming at all scales - national, regional or intra-urban - a core-periphery pattern. -Autho Core periphery Israel production of space social division of space social justice.
