Description
A revisionist account of Zionist history, challenging the inevitability of a one-state solution, from a bold, path-breaking young scholar The Jewish nation-state has often been thought of as Zionismâ?Ts end goal.A In this bracing history of the idea of the Jewish state in modern Zionism, from its beginnings in the late nineteenth century until the establishment of the state of Israel, Dmitry Shumsky challenges this deeply rooted assumption.A In doing so, he complicates the narrative of the Zionist quest for full sovereignty, provocatively showing how and why the leaders of the prestate Zionist movement imagined, articulated, and promoted theories of self-determination in Palestine either as part of a multinational Ottoman state (1882â?"1917), or in the framework of multinational democracy. A In particular, Shumsky focuses on the writings and policies of five key Zionist leaders from the Habsburg and Russian empires in central and eastern Europe in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuriesâ?"Leon Pinsker, Theodor Herzl, Ahad Haâ?Tam, Vladimir Zeâ?Tev Jabotinsky, and David Ben-Gurionâ?"to offer a very pointed critique of Zionist historiography.
