ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the keyconcepts discussed in previous volume in this book. This book discusses Israel’s involvement in Africa within several fields of reference, including the exportation of pioneering settlement models as both an expression of and a tool for the realization of moral geographies. African leader’s desire to import the Israeli settlement model on the one hand, and Israel’s motivation to export its success on the other, stemmed not only from an instrumental perception, but also from the necessity to shape the new Israelis’ identity as modern subjects and as modernizing and progressive agents, who survived colonialism too. In the midst of the Zionist project, during the same years that "Africa" was a subject of exotic desire and geo-strategic destination, "Africa" was present in Israel in the shape of Jewish immigrant communities originating from North Africa.
