What is Zionism? An Exploration of the Primary Sources
This course explores the writings, debates, points of synergy, and divergence among Zionist theoreticians. We will study the writings of Theodor Herzl, Ahad Ha’am, Abraham Isaac Kook, A.D Gordon, and other representatives of Jewish nationalist thought. As we explore the cacophony of Zionisms in the 19th and 20th centuries we will map these ideas onto the present to understand their enduring legacies within Israeli society and politics.
