ABSTRACT
SUMMARY. This article reveals the mystifying reality, enduring struggles and uncertain future facing families in Israel. The compelling literature shortage of inclusive and fair scholarly representation of the various ethnic groups in Israel inspired the focus of this work on the commonalities, including the shared sense of suffering as well as manner in which life is celebrated. Of significance are the factors that generate divergence among the various ethnic groups while supporting their family strengths.
Family and cultural resilience is a mere derivative of the commitment to family and traditions, faith, communication styles, and a strong recuperative energy that unite all groups. doi:10.1300/J002v41n01_06 [Article copies available for a fee from The Haworth Document Delivery Service: 1–800-HAWORTH.
