Segregation, Tracking, and the Educational Attainment of Minorities: Arabs and Oriental Jews in Israel.
Shavit, Yossi
American Sociological Review, v55 n1 p115-26 Feb 1990
Explores the pattern of Arab-Israeli men attending postsecondary schools at higher rates than Oriental Jews in Israel. Tests and corroborates the explanation that Arabs benefit from a separate, predominantly college preparatory school system, while Oriental Jews must compete with European-origin Jews and are disproportionately tracked into vocational programs.
