Dr. Chaim Ben Yakov on the personality and influence of Ze'ev Jabotinsky (Channel 9)

Dr. Haim Ben Yakov, Director General of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, spoke on Israeli TV Channel 9 about the personality and influence of one of the most prominent Jewish publicists and politicians of the 20th century, Vladimir Ze'ev Jabotinsky.

The year 2020 marks major anniversaries of Jabotinsky’s birth and death. In commemoration, EAJC initiated a special project to publish a collection of his feuilletons, which has not been reprinted since 1922.

Vladimir (Ze'ev) Yevgenyevich Jabotinsky (1880–1940)—poet, writer, publicist, founder of Revisionist Zionism and the Betar youth movement—stands as a pivotal figure in modern Jewish history. Jabotinsky's ideas continue to exert a profound influence on contemporary political developments in Israel.
