Kadimah (student association)

Kadima (also Kadimah ) (Hebrew: קדימה, Qadīmah, German: to the east, forward) was a national Jewish, Zionist soon fraternity in Vienna.

History

Kadima was founded on October 25, 1882 in Vienna, it is approved by the authorities on 23 March 1883. Therefore it is the foundation year partly in 1882, partly called 1883. The boys colors of the Kadima were amaranthrot - purple-gold on purple and white. The foxes wore a red -violet band. The cap color was initially violet, black from 1918 and 1928, finally dark blue. The motto was: With Word and defense for Judah 's honor!

Members of the Kadima founded in 1891 Hasmonaea Chernivtsi, 1893, the Moriah Vienna and 1912 Barissia Radautz. Kadima was disbanded by the authorities after the annexation of Austria on August 13, 1938.

After the Second World War were the old boys in 1954 the old boys club of the connection Igul Tel Aviv in.

The Kadima emerged as the first national Jewish student organization, exclude as some corporation associations Jews began ( Kyffhaeuser Association, Waidhofen decisions). The Kadima, initially derided by Jews was prescribed Zionism. Like the existing throughout Europe Choveve Zion associations (associations of Zion's lover) let the Kadima recognize first organized Jewish national aspirations. They prepared the ground for Theodor Herzl and the later success of political Zionism.
