The idea of Jewish autonomy and self-determination in the land of Israel pervades structures Jewish thought for most of our history as a people. In the modern era this concept gets turbo-charged, leads to the formation of the State of Israel, and continues to evolve through our present day. This course will trace the major ideas of Zionism and explore how over time, the emphasis of Zionism has shifted between different aspects of this line of thought. No prior knowledge required.
