Michael Makovsky traces the development of Churchill's positions toward Zionism from the period leading up to the First World War through his final years as prime minister in the 1950's. Setting Churchill's attitudes toward Zionism within the context of his overall worldview as well as within the context of twentieth-century British diplomacy, Makovsky offers a unique contribution to our understanding of Churchill. Moving chronologically, the book looks at Churchill's career within the context of several major themes: his own worldview and political strategies, his understanding of British imperial interests, the moral impact of the Holocaust, his commitment to ideals of civilization, and his historical sentimentalism. While Churchill was largely sympathetic to the Jews and to the Zionist impulse, he was not without inconsistencies in his views and policies over the years. Makovsky's book illuminates key aspects of Middle Eastern history; Zionist history; and British political, imperial, and diplomatic history; and further helps us understand one of the pivotal figures of the twentieth century. 410 0$aNew Republic Book 606 $aZionism$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xForeign relations$zMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xForeign relations$zGreat Britain 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aZionism$xHistory 676 $a320.54095694 700 $aMakovsky$b Michael$f1963-$01047201 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451708803321 996 $aChurchill's promised land$92474622 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01465nam 2200289z- 450 001 9910689499303321 005 20250716112246.0 035 $a(CKB)5860000000030816 035 $a(BIP)906472407 035 $a(EXLCZ)995860000000030816 100 $a20220406c2000uuuu -u- - 101 0 $aeng 200 10$aPeacekeeping in the Democratic Republic of the Congo $ehearing before the Subcommittee on Africa of the Committee on International Relations, House of Representatives, One Hundred Sixth Congress, second session, Tuesday, February 15, 2000 215 $a1 online resource (326 p.)$cill 311 08$a0-16-061162-8 330 8 $a2d edition.
