Zionism is a case in point. If Menachem Begin’s ultra-nationalist Irgun had joined a coalition with Ben-Gurion’s pragmatic Mapai in 1947, Zionists would have rejected the partition of Palestine, and Ben-Gurion would not have been allowed to declare the Jewish state in May 1948.
犹太复国主义是与此相关的一个好例子。如果贝京极端民族主义的伊尔贡（利库德集团的前身）在1947年与本古里安的以色列工人党结盟的话，那么犹太复国主义者就会拒绝将巴勒斯坦分裂开来，而本古里安就不会被允许在1948年5月宣布成立这个犹太国家。
