O knihe

Religious-Zionist historiography has at times attempted to emphasize
continuity, turning Abraham into the first Zionist and
Nahmanides' travel to the Holy Land into another landmark in
the realization of the religious-Zionist ideal. By contrast, this book
approaches the creation of the Mizrachi as a genuine revolution,
when the religious and rabbinic world entered institutionalized
politics and, to some extent, assumed the demands of modernity.
This is the first study in English tracing the course of religious-
Zionism since the creation of the Mizrachi in 1902 until recent
years, when traditional structures have changed or even collapsed
and the movement confronts a new horizon.
