According to Grinberg, at times politics in Israel leads to what he calls “tribal politics,” which is based on an imagined national identity that emphasizes public hate and fear of new forces (outside and inside the nation-state). This type of politics silences and negates the legitimacy of the “others” and the need to talk with them.

Henri Lefebvre pointed out that the mechanical movement of the clock reproduces itself, as a repetitive process. The daily rhythm of life has a repetitive component too, but it preserves some qualities and changes others—thus, creating constant modifications .
