Sovereignty, Violence and Morality: Zionism and the Ethics of Judaism (Part 2/4 Jabotinsky’s Zionism of Power)
Hosted By: Orange County Jewish Community Scholar Program ("CSP")
This four-part seminar explores the interaction between religion and sovereignty within the context of political Zionism, particularly regarding the Jewish right to establish a state in the Land of Israel. It addresses key questions on the constructive potential and the potential toxicity of combining religion and state, the moderation of nationalist fervor by religious values, and the role of power in Zionist expressions of Jewish sovereignty. The course will examine diverse ideological perspectives, from anti-Zionist rabbis to proponents of militaristic nationalism and pacifist religious thoughts, analyzing how these views influence modern Israeli politics and contribute to current extremism.
