The book traces key stages of the Zionist project through major settings and turning points, from Jeruscholajim to emancipation debates, and from Herzl’s diplomatic efforts to the Basel Congress. It analyzes the shift from ideas to organized public action, including proposals such as Altneuland and the El-Arish–Kishinev–Uganda episode, concluding with themes of Rome and Jerusalem.","HERZL’S VISION  \nBy the same author  \nThe Social and Political Thought of Karl Marx Karl Marx on Colonialism and Modernization Israel and the Palestinians Hegel’s Theory of the Modern State Marx’s Socialism Varieties of Marxism The Making of Modern Zionism Moses Hess:  \nProphet of Communism and Zionism Arlosoroff:  \nA Political Biography Communitarianism and Individualism (with Avner de-Shalit)  \nEurope’s Century of Discontent  \n(with Zeev Sternhell)  \nMoses Hess:  \nThe Holy History of Mankind & Other Writings  \nHERZL’S VISION  \nTheodor Herzl  \nand the Foundation of the Jewish State  \nShlomo Avineri  \nOriginal text © Shlomo Avineri 2008  \nEnglish translation © Haim Watzman 2013  \nAll rights reserved.
