In this volume, Arieh Saposnik examines the complicated relations
between nationalism and religious (and non-religious) redemptive
traditions through the case study of Zionism. He provides a new
framework for understanding the central ideas of this movement and
its relationship to traditional Jewish ideas, Christian thought,
and modern secular messianisms. Providing a longue-duree and broad
view of the central themes and motivations in the making of
Zionism, Saposnik connects its intellectual history with the
concrete development of the Zionist project in Israel in its
cultural, social, and political history. Saposnik demonstrates how
Zionism offers lessons for a politics in which human perfectibility
continues to serve as a guiding light and as a counter-narrative to
the contemporary politics of self-interest, self-promotion and
'post-truth.' This is a study that bears implications for our
understanding of modernity, of space and place, history and
historical trajectories, and the place of Jews and Judaism in the
modern world.
