Abstract
The study deeply examines the Zionist issue in the international politics of US presidents in the period from 1913 to 1929, and examines the images of this issue formed in the periodical press of America. The process of evolution of the perception of international relations by US presidents in the period of Modern times and modernity has long been the subject of in-depth and comprehensive study by specialists of the widest profile. Using the example of studying the image of Zionism and the Middle East, it seems possible to identify common patterns inherent in the formation of the image of a «crisis region» in speeches and documents of American presidents and to trace what differences exist in the construction of an «imaginary crisis» in W. Wilson, W. Harding and C. Coolidge. The author examined the interaction between US politicians, American society, American Jews and Arab diplomats. As a result of the conducted research, the author drew conclusions about the transformation of the US policy towards Jews, as well as about the development of the Zionist issue as a whole: the process of resettlement of Jews to a single center in Palestine, interaction with Great Britain and other European countries on the Jewish issue.
