Israel is a pluralistic society that contains numerous                     subgroups divided along ethnic lines.  This research project will               extend our understanding of how individuals conceptualize their                 ethnic identities and how ethnic boundaries are created and                     maintained.  The researcher will investigate individuals of                     Moroccan, Romanian, and Palestinian backgrounds in the                          multiethnic community of Akko (Acre).  Each group's reaction to                 national policies and expectations with regard to language use                  and education will be analyzed within the context of the                        community.                                                                           This research will add significantly to our knowledge about                the complexities of interethnic contact in relation to state                    power.  On an utilitarian level it may well provide insights that               will be useful to resolving the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.
