In view of the importance of work, and the problems involved in this
sphere. in the life of elderly kibbutz members, an attempt was made to
develop a model which would provide a choice between different forms of
intervention, in accordance with the circumstances. The forms suggested
were: job enrichment; re-deployment; supportive advice.
The approach used posits that between the characteristics of the job
and the personal qualities of the workers there is inter-action of a type
which influences the worker's growth experience. his internal motivation.
his satisfaction, and the quality of his output.
Job enrichment is recommended in the following case: strong growth
need of the workers in a given branch; low self,expression potential in
the job; low motivation and/or low general satisfaction and growth
satisfaction of the workers; the situation is not caused by factors intrinsic
in the work situation , such as low managerial standards or the social
status of the work branch.
Job re-training or re-deployment is recommended if in a given branch
there are no grounds for job enrichment. but individual workers have a
strong growth need , their general satisfaction and growth satisfaction are
low, their internal motivation weak.
Supportive advice is recommended for those workers who are found to
be in need of it on the basis of a self-description test. and are not
receiving it.
A survey was made of 51 kibbutz members (male and female ) aged 40
and over. Indices were calculated of motivational ability potential of
their jobs, strength of their growth need. their satisfaction (both general.
and specific to their jobs), internal motivation. and self-image.
The data were analysed , and as a result job re-training was
recommended for two workers, and supportive advice for three others. In
no branch was there need or possibility of intervention with a view to job
enrichment. In two branches steps should be taken to increase the social
satisfaction of the elderly members who work in them.
This work is a case study in the realm of solidary economy social enterprise in Israel that targets marginalized populations and the social and geographic periphery. The Tarbut Movement (“culture” in Hebrew) is a non-profit national movement of pioneering young artists who reside and work as urban kibbutzim in weakened towns throughout Israel. Its mission is to use art and culture as a vehicle for self-empowerment and social change to reshape the future of Israel, promote values of social solidarity, equality, democracy and tolerance. They create and deliver innovative artistic, educational and cultural programs for disadvantaged populations across the spectrum of Israeli society. Ongoing initiatives include: The Ohel cooperative theatre; Local culture festivals; the Mobile Museum; Artwork Shops; All-Women Cabaret; LGBT+ Programs; the School for Art and Culture;
Youth Organization – through creative art, teenagers and children deal with current affairs like poverty and social inequality; problems of Israel democracy; exploitation and chauvinism; ethnic gaps. There are 5,000 teenagers and children active in the organization in grades 4 -12, in 25 towns across Israel. Youth Shnat Sherut is a post high-school year of community service before army with continuous guidance by older Tarbut members enlisting each year about 100 new members.
The Tarbut Movement is a paradigm of cultural bricolage. It integrates cultural artifacts with strong historical resonances: the classic Tarbut Movement from Eastern Europe Jewry; the kibbutz and the urban kibbutz; the youth movement; the pre-army service year and the commune; the historical cooperative theatre HaOhel.
It has been characterized as hypo modern: "the new development, that criticizes, opposes, investigates and examines postmodernism modestly, with a silent outcry and steadily increasing social ethic strength..."

The article analyses the concept of Jewish Electronic Citizenship; it describes the first Virtual Zionist Congress and how its input to the 33rd World Zionist Congress resulted in a decision; it concludes with a discussion of the wider implications of Internet and the new communication technologies for citizen participation in civic discussions and decision making.
In 1997, the 33rd World Zionist Congress convened on the centenary of the Zionist movement. One of the decisions adopted by this Congress was "Jewish Electronic Citizenship" (Decision number 86). The 33rd Zionist Congress instructs through this decision the WZO institutions to report to the 34th Zionist Congress on the steps taken to implement the concept of Jewish citizenship through communication technologies (Jewish peoplehood through communication technologies).
The implementation of this decision means enterprising activities such as computerized discussions throughout the Jewish world, online public opinion surveys, experiments of joint decision-making processes via electronic means and electronic group work, with the aim of enabling broad and open participation of Jews in discussions and decision-making concerning issues on the contemporary Jewish agenda.

I will review the following aspects : some characteristics of the Brazilian
society; ethnic studies in Brazil and several consequences of their prevalent assumptions; Jewish research in Brazil; attitudes towards Jews in Brazil; and finally some aspects of the Brazilian Jewish community and, in particular, its youth organisations.

The aim of the school is training new skills for planners, decision-makers, promoters, and local development facilitators. The training school will deal with innovative approaches to surveys, analyses, monitoring and testing in regards to Historic Urban Landscape (HUL), foster the uptake of new tools for empowering local communities, as well as for supporting planners and decision-makers. The training integrates multi-disciplinary knowledge about the underground heritage in a planning framework based on HUL, boosting new job profiles on cultural planning, strategic spatial planning, transition planning and management. These new job profiles will guarantee interaction with local communities, dissemination of innovative thinking, and methodologies for supporting the exploration of alternative social trajectories in an adaptive, forward-looking manner.
