Politics, Elections and Local Governance in the Arab and Druze Sector in Israel

The recent municipal elections in Israel in November 2008 were characterized by very high Arab and Druze voting rates, reaching 90% in several municipal districts. In contrast, the participation of the Arab citizens in the elections to the 18th Knesset, only a few months later in February 2009, had declined, reaching an unprecedented low of 53.4%.

This Publication, which is based on two conferences held by the Konrad Adenauer Program for Jewish-Arab Cooperation at the Tel Aviv University after both elections, examines a series of topics relating to Arab politics in Israel.

It tries to identify Arab voting patterns on the municipal and national level and to analyze the organizational structures of Arab local councils, in order to throw light on socio-economic and political developments within the Arab society in Israel.
