Teaching inside a kibbutz at the Sea of Galilee, Israel.

Israeli communal collective settlement with collective ownership of all property and earnings, collective organization of work and decision-making, and communal housing for children. A modified version, the Moshav Shitufi, is similar to the collective farms that were typical of the USSR. Other Israeli cooperative rural settlements include the Moshav Ovdim, which has equal opportunity, and the similar but less strict Moshav settlement.
