Inside-Out examines life in Israel and kibbutz in relation to questions of identity and belonging. Based on the personal experiences of Dr. Julia Chaitin, the book weaves together explorations of education, social relationships, economics, work, gender, ideology, and social structures in the kibbutz. These explorations are intertwined with discussions of the themes of violence, the military, the Holocaust, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and diverse ethnic groups in Israel. Recounting events from over thirty years of living on a kibbutz in Israel, the American born author reflects upon the development of her identity and also draws on psychosocial and cultural understandings of everyday events in a kibbutz and in Israel, which presents an intricate look at life in these unique societies.
Julia Chaitin holds a Ph.D. in Social Psychology from Ben Gurion University of the Negev in Beer Sheva, Israel. Her research focuses on the long-term psychosocial impact of the Holocaust on survivors and their families, and on young adults; joint Palestinian-Israeli research; and issues of ethnic belonging and identity among immigrant populations. Dr. Chaitin specializes in qualitative research, basing her work on narrative research and storytelling, ethnography, and inter-group facilitation. Dr. Chaitin is a Senior Lecturer at the Sapir College in Israel and is active in peace and social justice work.
