Abstract | "For four decades, Zionist women's organizations worked for the idea of a Jewish nation and for the foundation of a Future Jewish state. Nationalism served to advance a strategy of women's emancipation: Appealing to the nation, female German Zionists were able to increase the scope of influence for women in the political sphere. Women identified as 'muscular female Jews' ('Muskeljüdinnen') and declared themselves as pioneers, as role models and as spiritual mothers of Zionism. Not only that, they contributed essentially to the success of the Zionist movement and, they established the ideological basis for women's equal access to areas such as the economy, politics and the military of what was later to become the state of Israel. This study reconstructs the context in which Zionist women's organizations emerged. It furthermore provides an analysis of the organizations, their development and the image of Zionist women's organizations in Germany from the 1st Zionist Congress in 1897 to 1938 when the Zionist Federation of Germany (Zionistische Vereinigung für Deutschland) was dissolved by the Gestapo. An analysis of German Zionism with special attention given to space for women illuminates not only the underlying cultural dispositions of social constructs such as gender and the nation, but also highlights the fundamental parameters of the German Zionist movement as a whole. This book tells a story of the forgotten and their destruction. It is the unknown background story of the WIZO, still today the largest international women's movement world wide, and it is also the story of German Jewry that never reappeared."
