Movement to Holy Land

Movement to Holy Land

There has always been a Jewish population in Palestine, and in the 1800's there was a marked increase in the movement towards the "Holy I and". in the early twentieth century the country was agriculturally in a mess. Gradually settlements haphazardly grew up on a communal basis and the land was transformed. From these early settlements have developed the various communes which make up modern Israel. Even the children are brought up communally and only see their parents in leisure hours. Despite appearances this is in fact "the most beneficial system of organising children in the world," Parent-child relationship is the happiest possible. The children, moreover, receive an excellent education.
