B. Katznelson was the author of the most comprehensive, analytical, intellectual, & humanistic interpretation of the Eastern European labor movement. The Zionists among whom socialist Zionism originated opposed Judaism's formal & institutional expressions, & sought to create a new form of Judaism through ownership of land. This led to the approach defined by Katznelson as revolutionary constructivism, carried out by pioneer cadres, communal settlement, & consolidation of agricultural unions. This led to the formation of Achdut Haavoda Party, the Third Aliya, Histadrut, & Mapai, & thus toward the attainment of statehood. In this process, tension developed between proponents of centralism & decentralism. The chief opposition to Mapai's centralism emerged from the kibbutz movement. Despite Katznelson's criticism of the kibbutz, it has made Israel's pluralism more effective. W. H. Stoddard.
