Excerpt from What Is Zionism?: Two Chapters From "Zionism and the Jewish Future"
The persistence of the Jewish people through years of dispersion is due to its capacitv for organizing a group-life of its own, under whatever external conditions, on the basis of a spiritual idea -the idea of the eternity of Israel as bound up with the eternity and universality of the God of Israel. This idea, carrying with it as a corollary the belief in a future restoration of the people to its homeland, has been at the root of the Jewish attitude to life, and has supplied in the Jewish struggle for existence the place of the more con crete expressions of nationality. The people of Israel, the God of Israel, the land of Israel - these are the indestructible kernel around which has grown an outer shell of belief, tradition, religious observance, and social custom. So in Babylon, in Spain, in North Africa, in F rance and Germany, and later in Poland, large groups of Jews were able to create and carry on a distinctive life of their own, borrowing always from their surround ings - particularly in the matter of language - but remaining always completely conscious of a sep arate identity. The history -of the Jewish people in exile is the history of the growth and decay of these successive centres of Jewish national life, or - if we may coin a term to indicate the absence of cornplete nationhood - sub - naz'ional life.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. For centuries, Jewish people have sought to build and maintain a national identity, but nomadic existence and limited autonomy made this aspiration elusive. This book shines a light on Zionism, a movement that seeks to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Rooted in Jewish history and centuries of persecution, Zionism gained modern traction in 1897 with the formation of the Zionist Organization by Theodor Herzl. The author explores the movement's complexities, with debates between those prioritizing political action and others emphasizing cultural and economic growth. Despite internal divisions and external skepticism, Zionism has made strides in creating a Jewish presence in Palestine. The book highlights the impact of Zionism on Jewish identity, the challenges of nation-building, and the ongoing quest for a secure and self-determined Jewish homeland. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781333648848_0
