De Balfour a Begin, 1917–1977

Ken Stein

Coincidentemente, durante el mes de noviembre, ocurriendo durante un periodo de sesenta años, cuatro importantes puntos de referencia pasaron a la historia del sionismo y la búsqueda judía del reconocimiento y la condición de estado: La Declaración Balfour de 1917, La Resolución de la ONU para la Partición de 1947, La Resolución 242 de la ONU de 1967, y el discurso de Menachem Begin en la Knesset en 1977 respondiendo a la histórica visita del Presidente egipcio Sadat en Jerusalén. Leer los documentos y sus introducciones contextuales provee una perspectiva comprensiva de la historia moderna de Israel.
