Agreement for the Reconstitution of the Jewish Agency of Israel

August 27, 1970

Abstract

Agreement for the Reconstitution of the Jewish Agency of Israel signed on August 27, 1970 by Jewish leaders from around the world. Max Fisher played a key role in the negotiations of the agreement. Said former president of the Council of Jewish Federations, Morton L. Mandel, "Max is a consensus builder - the single most able consensus builder I have ever seen in any form of activity. He's a genius at it. He has the fewest number of enemies of anybody I've ever met. He manages to retain credibility with people whom he does not support on a given cause at a given moment. That's a rare quality. It's what virtually separates him from the world."
