This is a study of the Zionist movement in Germany, Britain, and
the United States which recognizes Western Zionism as a distinctive
force. From the First World War until the rise of Hitler, the
Zionist movement encouraged Jews to celebrate aspects of a reborn
Jewish nationality and sovereignty in Palestine, while at the same
time acknowledging that their members would mostly stay put and
strive toward acculturation in their current homelands. The text
discusses the growth of a Zionist consciousness among western Jews
is juxtaposed to the problematic nurturing of the movements
institutions, as Zionism was consumed increasingly by fundraising.
In the 1930s Zionist images assumed a progressively greater share
of secular Jewish identity, and Zionism became normalized in the
social landscape of Western Jewry but the organization faltered in
translating its popularity into a means of saving the Jews and
building up the national home in Palestine.
