The Old New Land (German: Altneuland) is a utopian novel published by Theodor Herzl, the founder of political Zionism, in 1902. It was published six years after Herzl’s political pamphlet, Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) and expanded on Herzl’s vision for a Jewish return to the Land of Israel, which helped Altneuland become one of Zionism’s establishing texts.
