摘要

In recent years, Arab-Palestinian citizens in Israel are in search of a??a new vocabulary of citizenshipa??, among other ways, by resorting to a??alternative educational initiativesa??. We investigate and compare three alternative schools, each challenging the contested conception of Israeli citizenship. Our findings reveal different educational strategies to become a??claimants of rightsa??, yet all initiatives demonstrate the constraints Arab citizens face while trying to become a??activist citizensa??
