Sixty years after the birth of Israel, this fascinating and
original book of essays brings together a number of the leading
experts on Zionism and Israel to examine the domestic and
international context of Israel's transition from community to
state in 1948. With contributions on a wide range of historically
important topics that are no less relevant now than they were six
decades ago, the book examines how countries as diverse as France,
the United States, Turkey, Britain and Ireland viewed the partition
of Palestine in 1947 and the subsequent establishment of Israel in
1948. It also looks at the involvement of the UN, Zionist and Arab
leaders in the events immediately preceding Israel's birth. While
controversial issues such as the role of the Holocaust in the
creation of Israel and the attitude of the Zionist movement to
Palestinian Arabs, from its onset to the 1948 war, are examined in
order to set the record straight after decades of mistaken and
misleading research. This book was previously published as a
special issue of Israel Affairs.
