Spiritual Zionism (Jewish History)

A trend in Jewish nationalist thinking and Zionist ideology championed by Ahad Ha'am who believed Judaism had lost its sources of creative and national might. Because Ha'am did not believe that Palestine could accommodate all of Jewry, a Jewish state there, in his estimation, would not solve the problem of the Jews' social and economic status. Efforts should concentrate on establishing a national spiritual center, a hub of high­quality life in Palestine, that would radiate to all Diaspora communities.
