Annotation

This study discusses how Arab Labor, a primary bilingual Hebrew-Arabic satirical Israeli TV series, proposes an alternative vision for Israeli society, opposing the extant exceptional Israëli nationalism, attended by multiculturalism, largely as a result of neo-liberal economy: the ‘liberal bargain’, which advocates liberalism and cultural pluralism within a welfare nation state, where conflicts are quietly resolved.
