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.

AbstractThe authors aim to reveal both the potentialities and limitations of recent attempts by Dworkin and Rawls (especially in the latter's work since the publication ofA Theory of Justice) to work out a constructivist conception of right to serve as the groundwork of a rights-based theory of justice. The constructivist conception of right is promising, the authors argue, because it points beyond both teleological naturalism and instrumentalism as conceptions of right. The authors, however, find Dworkin and Rawls's constructivism to be ultimately inadequate, and argue that their project would be furthered through consideration of the constructivist aspects of Rousseau's conception of right as articulated inThe Social Contract.
