ISBN-13: 978-0-19-509209-7, ISBN: 0-19-509209-0

"Israel is a modern state whose institutions were clearly shaped by an ideological movement. The declaration of independence in 1948 was an immediate expression of the fundamental Zionist idea: it gave effect to a plan advocated by organized Zionists since the 1880s for solving the Jewish Problem. Thus, major Israeli political institutions, such as the party structure, embody principles and practices that were followed in the World Zioni ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-19-503446-2, ISBN: 0-19-503446-5

"In the pantheon of modern Jewish leaders, Chaim Weizmann is a giant. One of the founding fathers of the state of Israel and its first president, he was also a president of the World Zionist Organization and a chemist of the first rank, for whom Israel's renowned Weizmann Institute of Science was named. Yet there has never been a scholarly biography of Weizmann. His own autobiography, Trial and Error, written largely from memory, is ri ..."

"Fatherland or Promised Land traces the history of the two major organizations formed by German Jews to deal with the contradictions between emancipation and anti-Semitism. Each organization developed its own equilibrium between the two claims on German Jewry's loyalty: Deutschtum and Judentum; and it was in this period that the great personalities of Jewish liberalism and Zionism emerged.

"Anti-Jewish sentiment and prejudice are not a fringe-group phenomenon. In recent years the inhibition threshold for expressing anti-Semitic content in public has become lower, with Israel often serving as a screen for projecting anti-Jewish sentiment. This anti-Semitism of the mainstream of society was the focus of an interdisciplinary symposium in 2009 at Friedrich Schiller University Jena. The book contains the conference contribution ..."
