Globalization, in its earlier stages, was expected to erode national and ethnic identities. In contrast, ethnicity and ethnic affiliations persisted, growing socially and politically. This paper examines the role of the globalizing new communications technologies on this process, focusing on Diasporas. The study of trans-state networks based on ethnic solidarity, connections and affinities in the framework of social and political science is quite recent. Following a clarification of the distinction between classical and modern Diasporas we analyse a particular case study, that of the Jewish Diaspora. This diaspora was an early adopter of computer-based communications and the Internet for a wide range of purposes. Early events are described including the diffusion of the Internet to Israel, the planning of a Global Jewish Information Network, Israel 2020 macro scenarios for Israel and the Jewish People and the decision on Jewish Peoplehood through communication technologies.

In view of the importance of work, and the problems involved in this
sphere. in the life of elderly kibbutz members, an attempt was made to
develop a model which would provide a choice between different forms of
intervention, in accordance with the circumstances. The forms suggested
were: job enrichment; re-deployment; supportive advice.
The approach used posits that between the characteristics of the job
and the personal qualities of the workers there is inter-action of a type
which influences the worker's growth experience. his internal motivation.
his satisfaction, and the quality of his output.
Job enrichment is recommended in the following case: strong growth
need of the workers in a given branch; low self,expression potential in
the job; low motivation and/or low general satisfaction and growth
satisfaction of the workers; the situation is not caused by factors intrinsic
in the work situation , such as low managerial standards or the social
status of the work branch.
Job re-training or re-deployment is recommended if in a given branch
there are no grounds for job enrichment. but individual workers have a
strong growth need , their general satisfaction and growth satisfaction are
low, their internal motivation weak.
Supportive advice is recommended for those workers who are found to
be in need of it on the basis of a self-description test. and are not
receiving it.
A survey was made of 51 kibbutz members (male and female ) aged 40
and over. Indices were calculated of motivational ability potential of
their jobs, strength of their growth need. their satisfaction (both general.
and specific to their jobs), internal motivation. and self-image.
The data were analysed , and as a result job re-training was
recommended for two workers, and supportive advice for three others. In
no branch was there need or possibility of intervention with a view to job
enrichment. In two branches steps should be taken to increase the social
satisfaction of the elderly members who work in them.

“Arts and cultural activities really do improve lives: they provide participatory creative activities that help to restore people’s well-being and increase their self-esteem, confidence and empowerment.”
This work is a case study in the realm of solidary economy social enterprise in Israel that targets marginalized populations and the social and geographic periphery. The Tarbut Movement (“culture” in Hebrew) is a non-profit national movement of pioneering young artists who reside and work as urban kibbutzim in weakened towns throughout Israel. Its mission is to use art and culture as a vehicle for self-empowerment and social change to reshape the future of Israel, promote values of social solidarity, equality, democracy and tolerance. They create and deliver innovative artistic, educational and cultural programs for disadvantaged populations across the spectrum of Israeli society. Ongoing initiatives include: The Ohel cooperative theatre; Local culture festivals; the Mobile Museum; Artwork Shops; All-Women Cabaret; LGBT+ Programs; the School for Art and Culture;
Youth Organization – through creative art, teenagers and children deal with current affairs like poverty and social inequality; problems of Israel democracy; exploitation and chauvinism; ethnic gaps. There are 5,000 teenagers and children active in the organization in grades 4 -12, in 25 towns across Israel. Youth Shnat Sherut is a post high-school year of community service before army with continuous guidance by older Tarbut members enlisting each year about 100 new members.
The Tarbut Movement is a paradigm of cultural bricolage. It integrates cultural artifacts with strong historical resonances: the classic Tarbut Movement from Eastern Europe Jewry; the kibbutz and the urban kibbutz; the youth movement; the pre-army service year and the commune; the historical cooperative theatre HaOhel.
It has been characterized as hypo modern: "the new development, that criticizes, opposes, investigates and examines postmodernism modestly, with a silent outcry and steadily increasing social ethic strength..."

the connection of industry and other non·academic institutions the
Industrial Internet Outreach Program was established.
The program includes marketing the Internet among potential industrial
users; support for these institutions in the process of their getting
connected; development of basic informational materials; instructional
resources and workshops for different branches of the Israeli Industry.
In recent months the "MOP . Israeli Industry R&D Information System"
was established as the focal point in the program. Information made available through this gopher system and patterns of usage are described. The system is becoming a tool for cooperation among Israeli industries and carrying out the bilateral agreements for industrial R&D between Israel and several other countries.

The following paper describes the Industrial Internet Outreach Program development for the Internet in Israel. The Internet is the largest computer network in the world growing at a rate of more than 100% a year.
The different phases are described including the formulation of a training and diffusion policy; the development of instruction materials and workshops for different branches of the Israeli industry; continuous support and outreach for new users.
Finally, the paper describes MOP - Israeli Industry R & D information System established last December as a focal point of the program as well as information made available through this gopher system and patterns of usage of this system. This information system is quickly becoming an important tool for cooperative integration in the Israeli industry and for carrying out the bilateral agreements for industrial R&D between Israel and several other countries.

The exercise sought to undermine the existing balance of power through the creation of socialization structure for workers' greater participation. The ideological characteristics of the dominant group in this context seem to facilitate the enterprises; although an incipient set of justification beliefs are developing among regional enterprise managers, it has no legitimacy among Kibbutz members.

The article analyses the concept of Jewish Electronic Citizenship; it describes the first Virtual Zionist Congress and how its input to the 33rd World Zionist Congress resulted in a decision; it concludes with a discussion of the wider implications of Internet and the new communication technologies for citizen participation in civic discussions and decision making.
In 1997, the 33rd World Zionist Congress convened on the centenary of the Zionist movement. One of the decisions adopted by this Congress was "Jewish Electronic Citizenship" (Decision number 86). The 33rd Zionist Congress instructs through this decision the WZO institutions to report to the 34th Zionist Congress on the steps taken to implement the concept of Jewish citizenship through communication technologies (Jewish peoplehood through communication technologies).
The implementation of this decision means enterprising activities such as computerized discussions throughout the Jewish world, online public opinion surveys, experiments of joint decision-making processes via electronic means and electronic group work, with the aim of enabling broad and open participation of Jews in discussions and decision-making concerning issues on the contemporary Jewish agenda.

A survey of historical systems (Responsa, BBS, and Usenet) follows by a description of the Jewish population and the wide variety of Jewish Web based activities today. These include the Institutional landscape; Jewish media — press, radio, video and blogs; the impact on Jewish religious observance; Jewish genealogy; Online dating; Social networks; Jewish education; Online learning; Jewish Studies and Digital Humanities; Jewish memory. Judaica Europeana supports the activities previously described by aggregating and facilitating the access and the re-use of Jewish digital culture. Europeana is the leading global digital library for cultural heritage as well as a lively eco-system for relevant stakeholders.

The Israel Museum Jerusalem, Europeana , Judaica Europeana and the Israel Ministry of Culture partnered to create and application which supported the use of the controlled IMJ- SKOS vocabularies for seeking Jewish related content in Europeana / Judaica Europeana. The Europeana Search API will be used to build a light-weight app that checks the keyword entered and if it matches an entry in the dictionary adds the other language labels before sending the query to Europeana. The application uses two ways of browsing IMJ terms.
Linking Open Data (LOD) is extending the Web with a data commons with the publication of various open data sets as RDF on the Web and setting RDF links between data items from different data sources. The resulting structured Web can be queried through the SPARQL query language; crawled by RDF search engines, browsed by RDF enabled browsers. Such tools feed innovative applications like mashups using a universal API. In January 2012 there were 31,634,213,770 Triples and 503,998,829 Outlinks in the Linked Data cloud. Projects like LOD2 and Research Space are applying such resources for online research. Europeana, the European digital library, museum and archive developed its new Europeana Data Model(EDM) based on a Linked Data approach using OAI-ORE for the representation of metadata and SKOS/ RDF for vocabularies. Vocabularies are a critical tool in navigating and applying LOD data. Judaica Europeana supports the implementation of EDM in the Jewish thematic domain to provide answers to queries like What? Who? When? Where? The initial application of this program is demonstrated using the thesauri of the Israel Museum Jerusalem (IMJ). Methods & Data: The IMJ tables for Objects, Events, Places and Artists were expressed in RDF/SKOS. Alternative ways to access the Europeana collections were developed (1) Multilingual access: the URI identifier for concepts in the thesauri supported the translation of queries from Hebrew to English (2) The hierarchical tree of the thesauri serves as a browser for accessing Europeana content with each concept leading to the relevant content. Results: Over 30,000 terms from the Hebrew and English thesauri were SKOSified from four tables: Artists, Places, Periods and Objects. Multilingual access to Europeana through the concepts of the IMJ vocabularies has been established. A browse tree application for the table for Objects has been concluded and possibly another one for Judaica Terms and Places will be developed as well. See: http://judaica-search.image.ntua.gr Added Value: LOD enrich the scope of Web based research and should become part of the GOR agenda. The present work support the work of online scholarly research through access to a knowledge base of cultural heritage through SKOSified vocabularies.

(3) Virtual Research Environments that integrate contents, tools and infrastructures in specific communities of practice. Judaica Europeana seeks to enhance Jewish Studies by integrating such developments with the support of DM2E. It aggregated more than 5 million digital cultural objects while DM2E built tools and communities that enable humanities researchers to work with manuscripts in the Linked Open Data Web.

Published in 1994 by the Department of Information of the World Zionist Organization
A Global Jewish Network has emerged in the last few years as part of the Global Internet. Its emergence is the result of the concerted influence of three main processes:
• The extraordinary diffusion of the personal computer in countries with large Jewish communities and its use by thousands of Jewish networking enthusiasts.
• The planning of a Global Jewish Network by the Israel Ministry of Communications and the concepts and dynamics introduced by this planning and experimental implementation into the Jewish organizational arena.
• Last but not least, the extraordinary growth of the Internet and computer communications in general. The Superhighway of Information Initiative in the USA set networking as one of the spearheads of the American economy and is very much part of the educated public agenda.
Computer mediated communications (CMC) have some important consequences that distinguish them from other kinds of intermediated communication. The high degree of interactivity and high speeds of communication with remote places, allow for a
minimal delay in obtaining feedback. This results in a sense of participation and intimity among the participants of such interactions; a feeling unknown in one-way communications like television, radio and cinema and difficult to achieve in large face to face groups. All over the Jewish world people are engaged in CMC concerning education, political activities, business development, long-range planning, observance, tourism and seeking friends. Many report having a renewed sense of belonging to the Jewish people.
Being that the Jewish People is significantly dispersed, this tool may have an extraordinary impact on the level of interaction obtained between its different parts. If an electronic global Jewish Shtetl was only a vision a few years ago, it is now a very populated Shtetl ... This technology will deeply influence our sense of Jewish unity and
interdependency.
The present Handbook attempts an initial mapping of this Shtetl. Most of the information presented here was assembled as the result of the continuous work and cooperation being carried out in the framework of the Jewishnt conference (described in Chapter Il).
After a panoramic view by Lucia Ruedenberg we bring chapters detailing the Jewish electronic conferences known at this time. In the following chapters we describe the servers that can be chosen by network users; then come some of the programs and projects being implemented. We finish with information concerning ways of
obtaining a connection to the network. I hope that those people still not connected will obtain the encouragement they need to do so in the near future .

The COST Action CA18110 – Underground Built Heritage as catalyser for Community Valorisation is issuing a Call for Applications for its first Training School, managed by the Institute for Studies on the Mediterranean – National Research Council of Italy, which will be held in Naples from February 10 to 15, 2020, in Castel dell’Ovo, hosted by the Municipality of Naples.
The aim of the school is training new skills for planners, decision-makers, promoters, and local development facilitators. The training school will deal with innovative approaches to surveys, analyses, monitoring and testing in regards to Historic Urban Landscape (HUL), foster the uptake of new tools for empowering local communities, as well as for supporting planners and decision-makers. The training integrates multi-disciplinary knowledge about the underground heritage in a planning framework based on HUL, boosting new job profiles on cultural planning, strategic spatial planning, transition planning and management. These new job profiles will guarantee interaction with local communities, dissemination of innovative thinking, and methodologies for supporting the exploration of alternative social trajectories in an adaptive, forward-looking manner.
