Stratified citizenship
• Different statuses for migration – result of the stratified citizenship
• Alternative policy for non-Jewish minority in Israel
• Residents of the Occupied Territories and East Jerusalem – non citizens, but with actual citizenship in Israeli political system
![Page 14: Palestinian Migration under the occupation Comparative study about the residents of the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem NISHIKIDA Aiko, Tokyo.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649dca5503460f94ac05e7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Conclusion
• Stratified citizenship reflects Israeli unique democracy
• Difficulty of migration for Palestinians – limited resources
• Palestinians as active migrants – migration as strategy of living
• Citizenship as a divide-and-conquer strategy of minorities
