Abstract
The issue which this article seeks to address is the evolution of clientelist modes of management within a context of political change. Otherwise stated, what is the impact of the Shas movement — an ethno-religious party which was created in the beginning of the 1980s — on the Israeli political culture? More generally, what are the repercussions of global economic change with respect to the identity and political representations of a given group — the Sephardim in Israel? According to us, the Shas movement is trying to adopt the clientelist mode of public funds' distribution, which is entailed by the consociative characteristic of the Israeli social and political system, in order to create an ‘avant-garde’ through the institutional network of the movement.
