The Jewish State An Attempt at a Modern Solution of the Jewish Question

The Jewish State was a political pamphlet written by Zionist political theorist and playwright Theodor Herzl, and was originally published in German in February 1896, and in English later that year as translated by Sylvie d'Avigdor. The work outlines a solution for a Jewish state, and is an important text in the early Zionist canon. Wherein he argues that the best way to avoid anti-Semitism in Europe would be to create an independent Jewish state, and he advised that Jews purchase land in Palestine as first steps towards this goal.
