The Jewish State by Theodor Herzl, written in 1896, is now available in a brand new modern English translation with helpful footnotes by Braaaiiin Books. Herzl was a Jewish journalist and political thinker from Austria. He believed the only real solution to antisemitism was to create an independent Jewish state - and this book explains exactly why. In The Jewish State, Herzl describes what this homeland would look like and how it would work. He also digs into questions of identity and what it means to truly belong somewhere. His ideas changed the world.
