The book's argument, which suggests that Israel's Islamism is distinctively shaped by the three types of responses that appear when Palestinian citizens of Israel feel compelled to 'Israelize' (namely, Islamization, Palestinization, and Arabization), helps us to understand the historical development of the movement and its particularism. The book enriches our knowledge of Israeli politics and is an interesting case study of the intertwining of religion and politics in the Middle East.\u003c\/div\u003e— Marta Domínguez Díaz, author of Women in Sufism: Female Religiosities in a Transnational Order\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince its establishment in the late 1970s, Israel's Islamic Movement has grown from a small religious revivalist organization focused on strengthening the faith of Muslim Palestinian citizens of Israel to a countrywide sociopolitical movement with representation in the Israeli legislature. But how did it get here? How does it differ from other Islamic movements in the region? And why does its membership continue to grow?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTilde Rosmer examines these issues in \u003ci\u003eThe Islamic Movement in Israel\u003c\/i\u003e as she tells the story of the movement, its identity, and its activities. Using interviews with movement leaders and activists, their documents, and media reports from Israel and beyond, she traces the movement's history from its early days to its 1996 split over the issue of its relationship to the state. She then explores how the two factions have functioned since, revealing that while leaders of the two branches have pursued different approaches to the state, until the outlawing of the Northern Branch in 2015, both remained connected and dedicated to providing needed social, education, and health services in Israel's Palestinian towns and villages. The first book in English on this group, \u003ci\u003eThe Islamic Movement in Israel\u003c\/i\u003e is a timely study about how an Islamist movement operates within the unique circumstances of the Jewish state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eNote on Translation and Transliteration\u003cbr\u003e  Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e  Glossary\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  Introduction: Palestinian Islamists in the Jewish State\u003cbr\u003e  Chapter 1.
