A kibbutz is a type of intentional community in Israel that was traditionally based on agriculture. The word "kibbutz" means "grouping" or "gathering" in Hebrew. The first kibbutz, Degania, was established in 1910. Kibbutzim operate under the premise that all income generated by the kibbutz and its members goes into a common pool, which is used to run the kibbutz, make investments, and guarantee mutual and reciprocal aid and responsibility between members. Members of a kibbutz receive the same budget, according to family size, regardless of their job or position. Kibbutzim were once known for their collectivist culture and agrarian lifestyle, though most have since been privatized. Today, some kibbutzim have turned into mostly regular communities with some social benefits, while others have maintained the traditional, collectivist approach dating back to the early 1900s. Kibbutzim vary in size from 80 to over 2,000 people and represent about 2.8 percent of Israels population. Most kibbutz members work in some section of the kibbutz economy or in one of its maintenance units, and routine jobs are rotated among members. The kibbutz has had a "profound" impact on Israeli society, both in establishing the country and in its culture of patriotism and sacrifice.
