employed in industry declines by 1 percent and grows in public and com-
munity services by 11 percent, while in the meantime, the size of the
Arab labor force in industry grows by 12 percent compared to only 1 per-
cent in public and community services.
As demonstrated in Table U by the rate of change in the size of the
Arab versus the Jewish labor force in each economic branch, in light of
the latter's rate of expansion or decline we notice the following patterns
of labor mobility:
(a) In industry the pattern is that of Arabs replacing Jews in a
declining economic branch (declining in terms of the size of
the size of the labor force employed in that branch).
(b) In agriculture and construction, both Arabs and Jews jointly
moving-off declining economic branches.
-(c) In commerce, however, Jews are replacing Arabs in a declining
economic branch.
(d) In personal services, Arabs are replacing Jews in an expanding
economic branch.
(e) In transport and communication, finance and business services,
as well as public and community services, Arabs and Jews are
joining expanding economic branches.
In interpreting these replacement/joining trends, we must keep in
mind three important points: first, the relatively small size of Arabs
versus Jews in the total citizen labor force, as well as in the various
economic branches. The latter makes a real difference in such interpreta-
tion. In 1975, for example, the citizen Arab labor force formed only 9.7
percent of the total citizen labor force in the country. The 17,000 - تاريخ
