Yet for decades, the symbol of the Jewish State was the noble pioneer draining the swamps and making the deserts bloom: the legendary kibbutznik. So what ever happened to the pioneers' dream of founding a socialist utopia in the land called Palestine? Chasing Utopia: The Future of the Kibbutz in a Divided Israel draws readers into the quest for answers to the defining political conflict of our era. Acclaimed author David Leach revisits his raucous memories of life as a kibbutz volunteer and returns to meet a new generation of Jewish and Arab citizens struggling to forge a better future together. Crisscrossing the nation, Leach chronicles the controversial decline of Israel's kibbutz movement and witnesses a renaissance of the original vision for a peaceable utopia in unexpected corners of the Promised Land. Chasing Utopia is an entertaining and enlightening portrait of a divided nation where hope persists against the odds. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Leach, David,|d1968-|xTravel|zIsrael. 650 0 Kibbutzim. 650 0 Arab-Israeli conflict|y1993- 651 0 Israel|xSocial conditions|y21st century. 651 0 Israel|xSocial life and customs|y21st century. 700 1 Clarkin, Richard. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 11838845?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ecw_9781770909755_180.jpeg
