Revisionist Zionism

A nationalist, militaristic faction of Zionism founded by Vladimir Jabotinsky in the 1920s, which rejected mainstream Labor Zionism’s gradualist and socialist approach in favor of maximalist territorial claims, the use of force and military strength, and immediate establishment of a Jewish state. It emphasized national pride, discipline, and political realpolitik, and drew inspiration (and contrasts) from European movements of the era.
