Book Jewish Life in Nazi Germany

Download or read book Jewish Life in Nazi Germany written by Francis R. Nicosia and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German Jews faced harsh dilemmas in their responses to Nazi persecution, partly a result of Nazi cruelty and brutality but also a result of an understanding of their history and rightful place in Germany. This volume addresses the impact of the anti-Jewish policies of Hitler’s regime on Jewish family life, Jewish women, and the existence of Jewish organizations and institutions and considers some of the Jewish responses to Nazi anti-Semitism and persecution. This volume offers scholars, students, and interested readers a highly accessible but focused introduction to Jewish life under National Socialism, the often painful dilemmas that it produced, and the varied Jewish responses to those dilemmas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on a wide range of documentary and oral sources, including interviews with refugees, this book explores the responses in Manchester to those threatened by the rise of Fascism in Europe. By exploring the responses of particular segments of Manchester society, from Jewish communal organisations and the Zionist movement to the Christian churches, pacifist organisations and private charities, it offers a critical analysis of the factors which facilitated and limited the work of rescue and their effect on the lives of the seven or eight thousand refugees – Spanish, Italian, German, Austrian and Czech – who arrived in Manchester between 1933 and 1940.

Book Between Home and Homeland

    Book Details:
  • Author : Brian Amkraut
  • Publisher : University of Alabama Press
  • Release : 2006-06-06
  • ISBN : 0817315136
  • Pages : 247 pages

Download or read book Between Home and Homeland written by Brian Amkraut and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2006-06-06 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between Home and Homeland is a fascinating account of young German Jews who immigrated to Palestine during the 1930s in the Youth Aliya movement. As Hitler consolidated power, Jews and their allies in Germany began efforts to leave the country. Among them was the organization, Youth Aliyah. Based on abundant archival sources and a thorough use of secondary literature, Brian Amkraut details the story of the organization from its origins through its alliances and antagonisms with other Jewish organizations, and the challenges that vexed its efforts from every side, perhaps the greatest being sheer human naiveté ("surely things will get better"). Amkraut also discusses the identity dilemma for Jews who grew up feeling German, and then had to alter their self-image in the face of growing discrimination. He highlights the internal disagreements of Jewish agencies who wrestled with myriad problems. The author explores how German Jews were ideologically heterogeneous, and details how different groups coped with increasing antagonism in a variety of ways. To this day, Youth Aliyah is considered by Israelis as a major contributor to the foundation of a Jewish presence leading to the modern state of Israel. Between Home and Homeland is an essential account of an important episode in the history of the Holocaust and the founding of the Isreali state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book contains ideas to develop interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary views on economy and society. It aims to disseminate heterodox ideas on various subjects related to economics and global society. The book is organised in six parts. Part 1 contains the key lectures of Backhaus on the concept of state sciences and of Klamer on the importance of culture for economics. Parts 2- 6 contain successively contributions in the areas of economic paradigms and theories, population and society, corporate issues, environment, and international relations. Examples of the content are: - the changes of family life cycles due to the rise of non-traditional households; - subjective and objective inflation rates after the introduction of the Euro; - the economics of genetic engineering; - the contribution of foreign direct investment to the economic development of host countries; - the inaccuracy of economic models applied in places characterized by extreme income disparities; - the improvement of political and corporate governance; - evolutionary thinking and emission trading; - freedom and order in the European Union; - the reform of social policy in Europe. The book provides interesting creative multi-disciplinary ideas with respect to various topical issues concerning the contemporary global society. It is highly recommended for economists and social scientists in search of broad views on social science and society."

This book was released on 1987 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzes the activities and reactions of two Zionist organizations in America during the Second World War - the Hadassah Women's Zionist Organization (and the position of Henrietta Szold) and the American and World Jewish Congress. Traces the radicalization of anti-Jewish measures in Europe and the American Zionist organizations' lack of adequate response. Argues that they were more preoccupied with the postwar settlement and the growth of Palestine as a Jewish homeland than with the fate of European Jewry. Rescue attempts were minimal and only aimed at sending refugees to Palestine. Contends that even when clear information was given about the murder of European Jews, there was little response. Attacks Zionist historiography for its use of the Holocaust as propaganda for the State of Israel. Gives examples of what could have been done by Jewish organizations. Pp. 271-319 contain documents.
