This chapter addresses the idea of cosmopolitanism (Turner 2006) in Shanghai as it has been manifest through the presences of Jewish communities during two periods of time, the decade from 1938 and the decade since 1995. These periods encompass a sharpened fragment of dislocated life that illuminates the contradictions of cosmopolitanism and its peculiar attachment to the symbolic meanings of Shanghai (Dong 2000). While Jews have never been a large part of Shanghai’s population, their presence may well have been critical to that quality of its cosmopolitanism
