| Synopsis: The late Rabbi Haim Hirschensohn was a religious Zionist philosopher
and theoretician who dared to confront the complex problems of
establishing a modern Jewish state according to the concepts of
halakhah (Jewish law) and to lay a halakhic foundation for a
democratic, theological and political regime. In this book Professor
Eliezer Schweid analyzes Hirschensohn's theories as part of his own
comprehensive research on Jewish national thought in Eretz Israel
during the first half of the twentieth century. |
