Beskrivning

A product of four decades of research, this volume examines the major issues that the Australian Jewish community has addressed since the end of World War II, focusing on the efforts of the community’s peak representative organisation, the Executive Council of Australian Jewry.This book moves from local issues, including Holocaust survivor migration and antisemitism, to transnational, regional and international issues, Zionism, Israel and Soviet Jewry. Through a thematic approach, this book examines the major challenges that Australian Jews and the Jewish world have faced since 1945, seen from an Australian perspective.Drawing on a wide range of sources, this book provides a new and original evaluation of these major issues. Jewish Communal Advocacy in Post-War Australia would be an invaluable resource for graduate students and scholars of contemporary Jewish history.Chapter 22 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 International license.
