Antisemitism and the Politics of History
Was There a Jerusalem School of Modern Jewish Politics? A Case Study in the Organization, Construction, Production, and Limits of Knowledge
This article examines how two central scholars based at the Hebrew University's Institute of Contemporary Jewry, Jonathan Frankel, and Ezra Mendelsohn, conceived, created, and codified the academic sub-field of modern Jewish politics. The article begins by discussing studies by earlier historians of the Jews like Salo W. Baron, Shmuel Ettinger, and Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi whose work often touched upon the intersection between Jews and politics. Wh…
Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism
Jewish Migration in Modern Times
The Epitome of Evil
While Michael Checinski's anonymously-published piece “USSR and the Politics of Polish Antisemitism, 1956-1968” from the first issue of Soviet Jewish Affairs in 1971 can be read as both an analysis of antisemitism in Communist Poland and as a scholarly artifact that illustrates the manner in which the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe and Jewish communities in the region were studied and understood at the height of the Cold War, it also tells us much …
Daniel Unowsky. The Plunder
The Plunder: The 1898 Anti-Jewish Riots in Habsburg Galicia is a carefully researched, well-organized, and clearly written analysis of the wave of anti-Jewish violence that swept the Habsburg Empire’s Galician provinces in the spring and summer of 1898. Based on a tremendous amount of original research on German and Polish documents maintained in archives in Kraków, Lviv, Vienna, and Warsaw, Daniel Unowsky’s study makes a major contribution to th…
Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism
R obert B lobaum . A Minor Apocalypse
Like his earlier monographs Feliks Dzierżyński and the SDKPiL: A Study of the Origins of Polish Communism (1984) and Rewolucja: Russian Poland, 1904–1907 (1995), Robert Blobaum’s A Minor Apocalypse: Warsaw during the First World War is an engaging and learned study based on a wide range of historical sources in German, Polish, and Russian that are woven into a convincing account of a critical chapter in Polish and European histories. In addition …
The Urban Origins of Jewish Degeneration
This chapter examines the relationship between Jews and the modern city, and more specifically how urban life contributed to Jewish degeneration, by drawing on the arguments advanced by Yuri Slezkine in his book The Jewish Century . While some scholars praised The Jewish Century , others were critical of Slezkine’s work. The chapter first looks at intellectuals who influenced the turn-of-the-century discourse on the city, including Georg Simmel, …
Migration as redemption
This article argues that Jewish migration from Eastern Europe to the New World has long been viewed through the lens of a specific historical narrative that revolves around and reinforces key themes such as anti-Jewish prejudice and violence in Eastern Europe, Jewish flight to Western countries, and the successful integration of Jewish immigrants into new societies. While this interpretation of Jewish migration as a story of crisis and redemption…
Strange Bedfellows? Anti-Semitism, Zionism, and the Fate of “the Jews”
This article examines the different ways that anti-Semitism and Zionism have confronted and influenced one another through a tension-filled dialectic that is simultaneously self-evident and counterintuitive. The essay begins with a discussion of the central place of anti-Semitism in canonical Zionist texts such as Leon Pinsker’s Auto-Emancipation and Theodor Herzl’s The Jewish State. Both Pinsker and Herzl believed that anti-Semitism was a perman…
Kim, czym, kiedy, gdzie i dlaczego są polscy Żydzi? Wyobrażanie, konstruowanie i zawłaszczanie Żydów polskich
Who, what, when, where, and why is Polish Jewry? Envisioning, constructing, and possessing Polish JewryThis article examines the different ways that various communities of scholars imagine, research and teach about “Polish Jewry.” Focusing on scholarship written in Israel, Poland and the United States over the past generation or two, the article argues that each particular community of scholars constructs a particular version of Polish Jewry and …
Jewish migration in modern times
This collection examines various aspects of Jewish migration within, from and to eastern Europe between 1880 and the present. It focuses on not only the wide variety of factors that often influenced the fateful decision to immigrate, but also the personal experience of migration and the critical role of individuals in larger historical processes. Including contributions by historians and social scientists alongside first-person memoirs, the book …
Lost and Found? Jewish Historians, Jewish History, and Narrativization of Order in East European Cities
This article argues that the long-standing turn to “the Jewish community” as a central organizing principle in works dedicated to Jewish history in east European cities has helped create and institutionalize a specific communal model of Jewish urban history, one that prioritizes narratives of Jewish communal order over explorations of the chaos and fluidity that characterize many other studies of the modern city. The article begins by discussing …

Who, What, When, Where, and Why Is Polish Jewry? Envisioning, Constructing, and Possessing Polish Jewry
back to North Tel Aviv and eat gefilte fish with all the other Polanim! Go already, your Auntie Bella is waiting for you! With this burst of anger, resentment, frustration, irony, and ridicule, I was once thrown out of a taxi in Jerusalem. For years, the driver's hostile references to Polish Jews-and not the actual act of being kicked out of the cab-puzzled me. How could the authentic representatives of a pure and noble past that I instinctively …
