An Australian Response to No Better Home? Jews, Canada, and the Sense of Belonging
The Association for Canadian Jewish Studies encourages research on the Canadian Jewish experience through the disciplines of political science, sociology, economics, geography, history, demography, education, religion, linguistics, literature, architecture, performing and fine arts, among others
Controlling Australian Immigration: Holocaust Survivors in the Post‐War Years
Recent studies of immigration have questioned assumptions about the effectiveness of government controls. In her work on illegal Jewish immigration to the United States, Libby Garland argues that official immigration quotas may not reflect actual numbers of immigrants and critiques historians for being too ready to take immigration laws at face value. Mae Ngai's work on the racialisation of “illegal aliens” in the United States also documents the…

Creating Transformation: South African Jews in Australia
Since the 1960s Australian Jewry has doubled in size to 117,000. This increase has been due to migration rather than natural increase with the main migration groups being South Africans, Russians, and Israelis. Of the three, the South Africans have had the most significant impact on Australian Jewry-one could argue that this has been transformative in Sydney and Perth. They have contributed to the religious and educational life of the communities…

Conflicting visions: Debates relating to Soviet Jewish emigration in the global arena
In 1966, Soviet leader Alexei Kosygin stated that Soviet citizens had the right to emigrate for family reunification. This sparked the campaign for Soviet Jewish emigration movement, which adopted the slogan “Let My People Go.” Yet, despite the biblical symbolism, there was a significant controversy about their final destination, with those opting for the West known as “drop-outs” (noshrim). There were intense debates between those Jewish Diaspor…

Parochial or Transnational Endeavor? The Attitude to Israel of Adolescents in Australian Jewish Day Schools
Australia and the Struggle for Soviet Jewry: 1961–1972
The plight of Soviet Jewry emerged as a major issue for World Jewry after the Second World War. Both Israel and Jewish Diaspora communities campaigned to give Soviet Jews either freedom of religion or the right to emigrate. The 1960s saw the promotion of the latter, with the slogan “Let My People Go”. Whilst geographically isolated and only being a medium power, the Australian government played a key role, with Australian politicians at times act…
Combatting antisemitism in the school playground: An Australian case study
The aim of Gross and Rutland's paper is to analyse the problem of antisemitic bullying in contemporary Australian state schools by investigating the case of Jewish children in those schools. The study is interdisciplinary, drawing on historical data and educational methodology, and employs a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews conducted in Sydney and Melbourne with all the major actors: students (55), teachers (10), principals…
The Jewish Movement in the Soviet Union
The history of the Jewish people in the twentieth century is marked by three major developments: Modern Zionism and the creation of the State of Israel; racial anti-Semitism and the Holocaust; and Communism and the campaign for Soviet Jewry. While there is extensive literature dealing with the first two movements, there has been much less written about Soviet Jewry. In recent years, some key works have been published, mainly focusing on the role …
Research in Transnational Archives: The Forgotten Story of the ‘Australian Immigration Project’
The transformative period in Australian Jewish history was the pre- and post-war migration of Jewish refugees. The Jewish community trebled in size from a tiny community of 23,000 to 61,000. However, whilst the number arriving at the edge of the Diaspora was significant, many more could have benefited. This opportunity was limited because of xenophobic and antisemitic attitudes, which resulted in government quotas and restricted funding. This per…

Resettling the Survivors of the Holocaust in Australia
In 1945, the majority of the surviving remnant of European Jewry wished to leave the European continent. For some, distant Australia seemed a hopeful refuge. In the period from 1945 to 1961 around 25,000 Jewish Displaced Persons migrated there, reinforcing a community that only numbered 23,000 in 1933. Despite this significant intake, Jews continued to constitute only 0.5 per cent of the overall population. As a result of anti-refugee hysteria ag…

No room at the inn: American responses to Australian immigration policies, 1946–54
After the Second World War, Australia introduced a new immigration policy based on the concept of 'populate or perish'. Through the International Refugee Organization (IRO), 170,000 DPs migrated to Australia between 1947 and 1950, funded by the United Nations and the Australian government. Jews were largely excluded from this programme and the Minister for Immigration even prohibited the IRO from continuing to support the migration to Australia, …
In the Shadow of the Holocaust: The Development of Moriah College, Sydney
This paper analyses the legacy of the Holocaust in the development of Moriah College, today the largest Jewish school in Australia, and explains why this tragedy led to a determined effort to achieve Jewish renewal as well as academic success. The growth of the College was facilitated first by restitution and later by the generosity of survivors. As a result of survivors’ reluctance to talk about their experiences, there was no formal study of th…
The Jews in Australia
Jews form only a tiny proportion of the Australian population, yet they have made outstanding contributions and have influenced Australian society immeasurably. Stories such as that of Sir John Monash, Australian commander-in-chief during World War I, whose legacy continues through Monash University, show how Jews have reached the highest echelons of Australian society. The Jews in Australia explores what makes the Australian Jewish community dif…
Buying out of the Matter”: Australia's Role in Restitution for Templer Property in Israel
A pietist, Lutheran group, the Templers settled in Palestine in the 1860s, but maintained their German citizenship and established the first Nazi Party branch outside of Germany. At the outbreak of World War II they were interned by the British in Palestine, and about one third were deported to Australia. In April 1948 the remaining Templers were evacuated and many also chose to settle in Australia. The Australian government, which wanted to use …
