Consequently, the emergent leisure cultures in Israel are vibrant, diversified, exuberant, and multifaceted, oscillating between Western and Middle Eastern tendencies. The chapters in this edited volume reflect dramatic influences of globalization on Israeli traditions, on one hand, and emergent local practices that reflect a communal quest of originality and authenticity, on the other hand. This book opens up a critical perspective on the tension between contested leisure cultures that are interconnected with spatial and temporal changes and interchanges.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExamining leisure as a part of social, interethnic, physical, gendered, and sexual changes, the volume is a key text for scholars and students interested in leisure culture, Israeli society, education, cultural and media studies, and the Middle East.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45541750833390,"sku":"9781032174228","price":67.19,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/leisure-and-cultural-change-in-israeli-society","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
