We will explore the traditional Kibbutz as it existed in the past, highlighting its fundamental principles, daily life, and its significant role in shaping Jewish society in Israel. Following, we will analyze the profound changes the Kibbutz has undergone over the past several decades, resulting in its transformation into what is now referred to as the “renewed Kibbutz” – a model that lies between a commune and a cooperative. Finally, we will discuss the  future development of the Kibbutz, considering its evolving place in modern society.

This lecture is a part of Kibbutz Life: History and Personal Reflections.
