This book is a reappraisal of David Ben-Gurion's intellectual origins and actual role as the founding father of Israel from the perspective of the twenty-first century. The book describes and analyzes the man and his unique period of ascendance, which he and his peers described as the 'Jewish Renaissance'.
This book offers a reappraisal of David Ben-Gurion''s role in Jewish-Israeli history from the perspective of the twenty-first century, in the larger context of the Zionist ''renaissance'', of which he was a major and unique exponent. Some have described Ben-Gurion''s Zionism as a dream that has gone sour, or a utopia doomed to be unfulfilled. Now - after the dust surrounding Israel''s founding father has settled, archives have been opened, and perspective has been gained since Ben-Gurion''s downfall - this book presents a fresh look at this statesman-intellectual and his success and tragic failures during a unique period of time that he and his peers described as the ''Jewish renaissance''. The resulting reappraisal offers a new analysis of Ben-Gurion''s actual role as a major player in Israeli, Middle Eastern, and global politics.
