| Zusammenfassung: | During the years immediately preceding World War I, German Zionism boldly reoriented its ideological and political program. New leaders drawn from the ranks of a younger generation now emphasized the critical necessity of their movement for the survival of German Jewry and rejected their predecessors view that German Zionism was primarily a philanthropic cause designed to aid imperiled East European Jews. The movement also increasingly criticized the tactics and policies of other Jewish groups, claiming that Zionists best knew how to solve the problems of German Jewry. The transformed Zionist Federation of Germany thereby abandoned its earlier posture of moderation and conciliation in favor of a radical and aggressive stance intended to revitalize the movement and challenge the incumbent leadership of German Jewry. |
