In her article "Suburban Realities: The Israeli Case" Tamar Berger discusses the nature of the new building in Israel in the last 3-4 decades. Israel, she claims, has been going through a process of massive suburbanization, which is drastically changing the face of the country. Some of the features of the new space are similar to those of other places, globally, but it has its particularity, the result of both the local spatial history and the nature of Israeli society. Suburbs in general are hard to define. Still, a set of typical features of the Israeli suburbs can be noted: they are decentralized-centralized spaces; Typically, they are spaces of the middle classes; They rely heavily on the car and in fact cars determine to a great extent the morphology of these spaces; and "stage value" is particularly present in them, leading to a sterilization of the political.

郊区现实：以色列案

塔玛·贝尔格（Tamar Berger）在她的文章“郊区现实：以色列案例”中讨论了过去3-4年中以色列新建筑的性质。她声称，以色列一直在经历大规模郊区化的过程，这正在极大地改变该国的面貌。在全球范围内，新空间的某些特征与其他地方的特征相似，但是它具有其特殊性，这是当地空间历史和以色列社会性质的结果。通常，郊区很难定义。仍然可以注意到以色列郊区的一系列典型特征：它们是分散集中的空间；通常，它们是中产阶级的空间。他们严重依赖汽车，实际上汽车在很大程度上决定了这些空间的形态。其中尤其存在“阶段价值” 导致对政治的绝望。Tamar Berger，“郊区现实：以色列案例”，第2页，共12页CLCWeb：比较文学与文化21.2（2019）：主题问题，重要性和以色列文化的现时。埃德 奥德（Oded Nir）和阿里·奥芬根登（Ari Ofengenden）
