Mishkan Ha’am Adult Ed – Kaplan and the Early Zionists

As a follow up to our November book discussion, we will explore the early zionist visions that developed in the first half of the 20th century. Mordecai Kaplan, the founder of Reconstructionist Judaism, formulated his own ideas about what Israel might look like before its founding. We will look at how Kaplan’s vision fits in with the other voices of his time, such as Martin Buber’s, and how each of these constructs measures up to Israel as it is today.
