Title: Growing up in the Kibbutz
First published: 1965
Description: Relatively few accounts of the development of children in the Kibbutz are available in professional literature. The purpose of this volume is to present a systematic account of child rearing and education in the Kibbutz, and a systematic exploration and interpretation of the personalities of Kibbutz children at several age levels- from infancy to maturity. Moreover, this is a comparative study in which the Kibbutz child is assessed alongside the Israeli child born and reared in the conventional family setting. Thus, the Kibbutz child is not compared with the norms of Western society, but with those of representatives of the broader culture which he shares. -- from Preface.
