In this work; Buber expounds upon and defends the Zionist experiment - a federal system of communities on a co-operative basis. He looks to the anarchists Proudhon; Kropotkin and Gustav Landauer; but selects only that part of their doctrines appropriate to his case.

For a long time; I have wondered how Arab Americans are considered "white/Caucasian" on the US Census; but are perceived as racially and/or ethnically different by most Americans. The history of that issue provided by Tehranian is thoughtful and eye-opening; and he creates a bridge from the past to the present to help you understand the situation today.1 of 3 people found the following review helpful. excellentBy ruth moralesI received the book in just a couple of days and I did not even reques prompt mailing.

Incredibly disappointingBy 621J3To say I was severely disappointed by this book would be a major understatement. I was extremely excited to purchase this book because I feel the topic and the light it shines on it is extremely important and ignored. Tehranian had a golden opportunity to write a book on important topic and get the word out. He could have done so in a book that was easy to read and would appeal to the masses. Instead; in typical blowhard law professor style; he essentially wrote a glorified law review piece that could appeal only to his fellow blowhard law professors. He squandered his chance to write a readable book and really do justice to the neglected truths in his book. I was sorely disappointed and dismayed.
