The book analyses the ideological and philosophical basis of
Zionism, i.e. how Zionism solved the most important problems of
Jews in the last decades of the 19th century: the problem of
assimilation, the philosophical principles of national identity,
the idea of self-liberation and the conception of the Jewish state.
Another problem discussed in this book is how the religious idea of
"Return to Zion" became both philosophical and political goals. All
considerations are based on the analysis of the source texts of the
protagonists and founders of Zionism (Hess, Pinsker, Herzl and
Nordau). Zionism is also shown in the perspective of its strength
and weakness, as well as its importance for Jewishness in general.
