Forming a Nucleus for the Jewish State: 1882-1947

For the idea of Zionism to become a territorial reality, Jews required a population and a territory. Creating facts on the ground provided the future state with its demographic and physical nucleus. With 34 pages of original maps alongside contextual, historic descriptions, the story of Zionism’s steady growth is vividly shown and explained.

Political Statements on a Two-State Solution to Resolve the Arab (Palestinian)-Israeli Conflict
1937-Present

A two-state solution idea emerged in the 1930s to resolve the Zionist–Arab conflict. The Zionists said yes to the UN idea in 1947; Arab states and the Palestinians emphatically said no: Israel emerged and no Arab state. The idea of a two-state solution remained publically moribund until the Carter administration suggested in 1977 that there should be a "Palestinian homeland" as an equivalent to Israel's existence. Yet, only from the early 2000s, did the term "two-state solution" gain public traction in Arab, Israeli, Palestinian, and international circles. We have provided maps and a chronology of Institutional and personal endorsements, rejections, and definitions associated with the "two-state" solution concept
