The State of the Jews: A Critical Appraisal

A critical assessment of the new anti-Semitism, its historical roots, and its current adherents, The State of the Jews examines the current predicament of the Jewish people and the land of Israel, both of which still stand at the storm center of history. The main body of Alexanders book is divided generically into history, politics, and literature. At a deeper level, its chapters are integrated by the books pervasive concern: the interconnectedness between the state of Israel and the spiritual state of contemporary Jewry.
