N2 - Theoretical considerations lead to the hypothesis that the dispositions of juvenile cases affecting Oriental Jews will be harsher than those affecting European Jews in Israel.

However, the authoritarian structure of the Arab community rather than prejudice explains the difference in handling Jewish or Arabic cases.
