Revival of the Kibbutz Movement
The Kibbutz, a unique Israeli institution and one of the greatest symbols of the Zionist enterprise, is enjoying unprecedented prosperity after years of decline and deterioration. Last year alone kibbutz industries rang up more than $200 million in export sales, and account for one third of the country's total agricultural yield. Membership is also on the rise once again. Kibbutz movement officials say that they are finally reaping the fruits of a long and difficult learning curve.
