From Wikipedia: "Martin Buber (8 February 1878 – 13 June 1965) was an Austrian-Jewish philosopher, translator, and educator, whose work centered on theistic ideals of religious consciousness, interpersonal relations, and community. Buber's evocative, sometimes poetic writing style has marked the major themes in his work: the retelling of Hasidic tales, Biblical commentary, and metaphysical dialogue. A cultural Zionist, Buber was active in the Jewish and educational communities of Germany and Israel. Until 1948 he was also a staunch supporter of a binational solution in Palestine, instead of a two-state solution. After 1948, with the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel, he reluctantly supported the two-state solution as a valid expression of Jewish self-determination. His influence extends across the humanities, particularly in the fields of social psychology, social philosophy, and religious existentialism."
