Discusses the struggle to establish Israel and the many competing ideas of what Israel should be. Israel was conceived to be unique, a model society and the heart of a prosperous new Middle East. This paradox - the Jewish peoples wish for a homeland both normal and exceptional - shapes Israels ongoing struggle to define itself and secure a place among nations.
