Examining ideological trends in academia, literature, media, law, the armed forces, and the foreign policy establishment, Hazony contends that Israelis are preparing themselves for the final break with the Jewish past and the Jewish future. In a dramatic new reading of Israeli history, Hazony uncovers the story of how Martin Buber, Gershom Scholem, Hannah Arendt, and other German-Jewish intellectuals bitterly fought against the establishment of Israel, and later used the Hebrew University as a base for deposing David Ben-Gurion and discrediting Labor Zionism. <i>The Jewish State</i> is a must-read for anyone concerned with Israel's present and future.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Yoram Hazony</b> is president of the Herzl Institute in Jerusalem and director of the John Templeton Foundation's project in Jewish Philosophical Theology. His books include <i>The Jewish State: The Struggle for Israel's Soul</i> and <i>The Philosophy of Hebrew Scripture</i>. He lives in Jerusalem.
