Zionism: The Formative Years

By David Vital

A sequel to The Origins of Zionism, this book traces the emergence of the Zionist movement through which the Jews were reformed as a political people. It concentrates on 1897, when Herzl launched the Zionist movement, and the following decade, which saw the establishment of the movement's main ideas and central institutions, its modes of political, social and economic action and its internal ideological and party political divisions on such issues as religious orthodoxy and socialism.
