Circles of exclusion: obstacles in access to health care services in Israel.
The Israeli National Health Insurance Act establishes a formal framework that guarantees equal access to health care services. The author analyzes the ways in which the neoliberalization of Israeli society, through partial privatization of the public health care system, and its structure of citizenship interact in excluding significant social groups, such as Israeli Arabs and migrant workers, from equal access to health care.
