The Movement for the Renewal of Social Zionism (Hebrew: תנועה להתחדשות ציונית חברתית, Tenoa'a leHitkhadshut Tzionut Hevratit) was a short-lived minor political party in Israel during the mid-1980s.
[edit] Background
The party was formed in 1983 during the tenth Knesset when Telem split up. Yigael Hurvitz refounded Rafi – National List, whilst Minister without Portfolio Mordechai Ben-Porat created a new party, the Movement for the Renewal of Social Zionism.
However, the party failed to cross the electoral threshold in the 1984 elections and subsequently disappeared. Ben-Porat moved on, joining Likud in 1988.
