Patterns of migration from Europe to Israel: Jewish migration, 1919-1984.

"An analysis was made from data published by Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics (1985) on Jewish immigrants by period of immigration and country of birth. Five periods of immigration are included in the study: 1919-May 14, 1948, May 15, 1948-1960, 1961-1964, 1965-1971, 1972-1979, and 1980-1984." The results show that although immigration from Europe has played a major role during this period of time, it has decreased significantly in the 1980s "as a result of several factors--restrictions on the number of Jews permitted to leave the USSR, the establishment of the United States and Canada as immigration destinations preferable to Israel, and the economic recession in Israel...."

Population structure in the Arab world and its impact on integration and development trends.

The author examines three issues: "population structure in the Arab world; trends making for integration and unity among the Arab countries; and economic and social development trends." Data from the United Nations for 1985 and from recent censuses are used to discuss population size, growth, and spatial distribution; the labor force; age and sex distribution; and fertility, mortality, and natural increase. Figures are presented separately for 22 Arab countries. Attention is then given to the relationships between population structure and economic and social development and between development and Arab unity and integration.

Expectations concerning future familial patterns among urban and kibbutz youth in Israel.

"The purpose of this study was to compare the expectations and concepts urban and kibbutz adolescents [in Israel] have concerning their future families, and to compare the patterns desired by adolescents with the patterns existing in their parents' homes. The areas investigated included role allocation between husband and wife, and desired age [at] marriage and family size. The research population consisted of urban (174) and kibbutz (97) adolescents ages 17-18." "Overall..., concerning desired patterns of familial role allocation and marriage age, kibbutz and city adolescents show similar trends. However, concerning family size, differences still exist. Also, in both localities, there seem to exist differences between boys and girls concerning their future families."
