Any book on the early kibbutzim cannot but be a tribute to those who were so willing.
Kibbutzim were run as collective enterprises within a free market system.
Most kibbutzim are not self-sufficient and have to employ non-kibbutz members as farm workers (or later factory workers).
The camp was later broken up when both kibbutzim were established adjacent to each other.
After one of the rockets landed, a fire broke out close to one of the kibbutzim.
It has a long and established legal history of leasing land to individuals, to cooperatives, and to intentional communities such as kibbutzim and moshavim.
There are 13 communities including seven kibbutzim, four moshavim, and two new rural towns.
The population in moshavim shitufiim was around 18,000, compared with 350,000 in moshavim and kibbutzim combined.
