In Land Law and Policy in Israel, Haim Sandberg contends that if you really want to know the identity of a state, learn its land law and land policies. Sandberg argues that Israel's identity can best be understood by deciphering the code that lies in the Hebrew secret of Israeli dry land law. According to Sandberg, by examining the complex facets of property law and land policy, one finds a unique prism for comprehending Israel's most pronounced identity problems. Land Law and Policy in Israel explores how Israel's modern land system is the product of legislation from the Ottoman period and the British Mandate as well as the seventy-plus years of the State of Israel. The regulation of property and the determination of land usage have been the consequences of explicit choices made in the context of competing and evolving concepts of national identity. Land Law and Policy in Israel will prove to be a must-read not only for anyone interested in Israel but also for anyone who wants to understand the importance of land law in a nation's life"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Land tenure $x Law and legislation $z Israel. 650 0 $a Land use $x Law and legislation $z Israel. 650 0 $a Public lands $z Israel. 650 6 $a Terres publiques $z IsraeÂl. 650 7 $a Land tenure $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00991383 650 7 $a Land use $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00991514 650 7 $a Public lands. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01082573 651 7 $a Israel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204236 776 08 $i Online version: $a Sandberg, Haim. $t Land law and policy in Israel $d Bloomington, Indiana : Indiana University Press, 2022 $z 9780253060471 $w (DLC) 2021045410 830 0 $a Perspectives on Israel studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240717012433.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1E04FAFEF47811EDA3FB15433FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
