Description: Israel by Alan Dowty Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "Authoritative pocket history of Israel without polemic or bias"-- Publisher Description How did a community of a few thousand Jewish refugees become, in little over a century, a modern nation-state and homeland of half the worlds Jews? Has modern Israel fulfilled the Zionist vision of becoming "a nation like other nations," or is it still, in Biblical terns, "a people that dwells alone"? Alan Dowty distils over half a century of study as an inside/outside analyst of Israel in tracing this remarkable story. It begins in the waning days of the Ottoman Empire, when Jews fleeing Russian persecution established a renewed Jewish presence in their historic homeland. It continues through harsh struggle and in deep-rooted conflict with another people that sees Israel/Palestine equally as their homeland. Immensely successful by most standards, Israel today remains a center of contention and is still torn between its hard-earned role as a "normal" nation and the call of its particularistic, and unique, Jewish history. Author Biography Alan Dowty is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame and Affiliate Professor at the University of Washington.
