ALT “A magisterial and comprehensive analysis of Zionism from its earliest iterations to the present. Every person who claims to oppose Israeli genocide needs to read this book for a proper understanding of Zionist motivations and attitudes, told from the point of view of its primary victims. The translation of Jiryis's opus gives Anglophone observers of Palestine the opportunity to bypass the anguished dilemmas of one-time Zionists that dominate discourse in the Global North and instead engage with one of the finest texts of the Palestinian intellectual tradition.” Steven Salaita Professor in the English and Comparative Literature department, The American University in Cairo

ALT “His book on Zionism, originally published in Arabic, has finally been translated to English and at a most auspicious moment in the history of the ideology and the movement. Based on extensive research from Zionist and Israeli sources, Jiryis’ The Foundations of Zionism will be equally indispensable to readers and specialists interested in the policies of the state of Israel and its official ideology. Erudite and thorough, the book reminds us that nothing the state of Israel does falls outside the foundations of its ruling ideology. This compelling book is essential reading.” Joseph Massad Professor of Modern Arab Politics and Intellectual History at Columbia University

On the right is the following passage: 'The Foundations of Zionism chronicles Zionism’s development from its early origins to the establishment of the British mandate over Palestine in 1923, refuting the movement’s own foundational myths. Sabri Jiryis delves into Zionism’s successive congresses and factional struggles, its early failures to settle in Palestine and the formation of armed militias, and its temporary alliances with the Ottoman Empire before securing support from Western colonial powers. In a newly written conclusion, Jiryis reconsiders the Zionist project 100 years on from the Balfour Declaration and amid the ongoing genocide in Gaza.'
