以色列德鲁兹人的特殊地位

On the Special Status of the Druze in Israel

独特的宗教信仰和生活方式使德鲁兹人成为阿拉伯人中一个特殊的群体。以色列建国后,政府为了对国内阿拉伯人进行"分而治之",将德鲁兹人视为一个独立的民族宗教团体。德鲁兹人可享有宗教法庭自治并成为以色列义务兵役制的实施对象。尽管蒙受以色列政府的种种优待,但德鲁兹人在社会、政治、经济等方面与主体民族犹太人相比仍有着明显的差距,他们并未在完全平等的意义上融入以色列社会。

Owing to its unique religious belief and way of life, the Druze is a special ethnic group among the Arabs. After the founding of Israel, the government adopted a ＂Divide and Rule＂ policy towards the Arabs across the country and the Druze was regarded as an independent religious ethnic group. Though the Druze enjoys autonomy in religious court and is integrated into the compulsory military service, they aren＇t treated equally in terms of society, politics and economy compared with the majority Jews.
