Abstract

The subject of the study are the features of the Russian-speaking
community of the State of Israel. The author examines such aspects of the topic
as: the nature of the community ties that are formed among the Russian-speaking
Israelis and the status of the Russian language in Israel. An attention is also
paid to the factors that contributed to the formation of a unique identity of
the representatives of the «Russian Israel», to the main stages of the evolution of the Russian-speaking community
in the political life of Israel and to the formation of the Russian media
space. The Russian-speaking community is rightfully regarded as a long-term
phenomenon, which is currently an important player in the political arena of
the country. The novelty of the study is the implementation of a comprehensive
analysis of the phenomenon of the «Russian Israel» on the basis of original sources. The main conclusion of the study:
the territorial localization, the preservation of the cultural environment of
the country of origin, the special status of the Russian language in Israel and
its place in the media space, the maintenance of the community symbols of
different nature, the program of socio-political development became the factors
of the unification of the Russian-speaking community of Israel.
