商品簡介
This volume describes the development of the Arabic-language press in Israel from 1948 to 2000. Kabha (Open U. of Israel and Tel Aviv U., Israel) and Caspi (Ben-Gurion U. of the Negev, Israel) first provide an overview of the Arabic-language press in general and of Palestine specifically during the Ottoman and British Mandate periods for comparative purposes. They then offer chapters on what they describe as distinct periods of press development, characterizing them as: recovery under Israeli military government (1948-66), re-establishing contact with the occupied Palestinian territories and thus being exposed to competition with Palestinian newspapers and new issues of national identity (1967-1983), and reactions to the two intifadas and changing patterns of the Israeli press (1983-2000).
