Meir Yaari (1897-1987) was the leader of Hashomer Hatza'ir, a
movement which took an active part in shaping the history of the
Jewish people in the crucial decades of the twentieth century. Its
Kibbutzim had a leading role in matters of aliyah, settlement, and
defense in mandatory Palestine and then independent Israel, and its
members were among the organizers of Jewish resistance and revolt
during the Holocaust. This biography discusses pivotal issues in
the history of the Jewish people and the State of Israel, such as
the friction between Zionism and socialism, the Arab question, the
absorption of new immigrants, and generation gaps and conflicts.
The book blends individual and collective perspectives and never
loses sight of the tension between ideology and reality.
