Description:

The traditional notion of Herzl, the symbol, with vague and naive Zionist self-awareness, was abandoned in academic circles some time ago. The question is whether the scarce and fragmented sources on his ideological make-up can serve he purpose of drawing any fundamental conclusions. In spite of the visionary tendencies Herzl displayed, there are intellectual moments in his thinking that deserve attention. His ideas may not be perceived as systematic but they do represent a specific trend in Zionist ideology, as embodied in his notion of the Jews´State. Herzl´s alleged return to Judaism and his often-ignored ideas on social and political issues best demonstrate the consistency of his ideological viewpoint.
