מדינת היהודים (The Jewish State)
'מדינת היהודים (The Jewish State)' Summary
Theodor Herzl's *Der Judenstaat* (The Jewish State) is a seminal work of Zionist thought published in 1896. It lays out the blueprint for a Jewish state, arguing for the establishment of a homeland for Jews in Palestine as a solution to the pervasive antisemitism faced by Jewish communities across Europe. Herzl, a secular Jew, believed that the creation of a Jewish state was essential for the safety and security of Jewish people, proposing a system of government, land ownership, and societal structures for this future nation. Although he considered other locations, such as Argentina, he ultimately advocated for Palestine, outlining the practicalities of establishing a Jewish state, including financial considerations and the potential challenges of building a new society. Despite his lack of deep engagement with Jewish culture and tradition, Herzl's vision resonated with a growing number of Jews, ultimately shaping the trajectory of modern Zionism.Book Details
