Yfaat Weiss tells the story of an Arab neighborhood in Haifa that later acquired iconic status in Israeli memory. In the summer of 1959, Jewish immigrants from Morocco rioted against local and national Israeli authorities of European origin. The protests of Wadi Salib generated for the first time a kind of political awareness of an existing ethnic discrimination among Israeli Jews. However, before that, Wadi Salib existed as an impoverished Arab neighborhood. The war of 1948 displaced its residents, even though the presence of the absentees and the Arab name still linger. Weiss investigates the erasure of Wadi Salib's Arab heritage and its emergence as an Israeli site of memory. At the core of her quest lies the concept of property, as she merges the constraints of former Arab ownership with requirements and restrictions pertaining to urban development and the emergence of its entangled memory. Establishing an association between Wadi Salib's Arab refugees and subsequent Moroccan evacuees, Weiss allegorizes the Israeli amnesia about both eventual stories--that of the former Arab inhabitants and that of the riots of 1959, occurring at different times but in one place.Describing each in detail, Weiss uncovers a complex, multilayered, and hidden history. Through her sensitive reading of events, she offers uncommon perspective on the personal and political making of Israeli belonging.

In contrast to most other countries, both Germany and Israel have descent-based concepts of nationhood and have granted members of their nation (ethnic Germans and Jews) who wish to immigrate automatic access to their respective citizenship privileges. Therefore these two countries lend themselves well to comparative analysis of the integration process of immigrant groups, who are formally part of the collective "self" but increasingly transformed into "others." The book examines the integration of these 'privileged' immigrants in relation to the experiences of other minority groups (e.g. labor migrants, Palestinians).This volume offers rich empirical and theoretical material involving historical developments, demographic changes, sociological problems, anthropological insights, and political implications. Focusing on the three dimensions of citizenship: sovereignty and control, the allocation of social and political rights, and questions of national self-understanding, the essays bring to light the elements that are distinctive for either society but also point to similarities that owe as much to nation-specific characteristics as to evolving patterns of global migration.

Der Schwerpunkt dieses Jahrbuchs ist Else Lasker-Schüler gewidmet. Anhand ausgewählter Werke wie dem 1913 erschienenen Gedichtband "Hebräische Balladen" werden die Palästina-Imaginationen der Dichterin mit ihren realen Erfahrungen, die sie etwa 1937 in "Das Hebräerland" verarbeitete, abgeglichen. Historische und literaturwissenschaftliche Beiträge setzen Lasker-Schülers Schreiben in Beziehung zur Vorstellungswelt ihrer Zeitgenossen, indem sie das Schicksal von Flucht und Exil, den unwiederbringlichen Verlust der Heimat und die Bedeutung der Muttersprache als Aspekte einer deutsch-jüdischen Erfahrungsgeschichte konzeptualisieren. Im Allgemeinen Teil stehen die materiellen Spuren jüdischer Lebenswelten Ostmitteleuropas im Zentrum. Am Beispiel von verschiedenen Einrichtungen und Sammlungen jüdischer Provenienz werden die Dynamiken von mitunter multiplen Zerstörungsgeschichten und transnationalen Rettungsinitiativen während und nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg untersucht. Ergänzend dazu finden sich Beiträge zur italienisch-jüdischen Geschichte, zur jüdischen Geschichte als Gegenstand der Historiografie sowie zur Rechtsgeschichte in dem Band.Das Jahrbuch des Dubnow-Instituts ist ein Peer-reviewed-Journal (double blind).

The 2017 edition of the Simon Dubnow Institute Yearbook encompasses two focal points: The first deals with the year 1938, an incisive year for Europe's Jews, against the background of Jewish experiences and political activities in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. On the basis of issues surrounding citizenship, minority rights, flight, and migration, this dramatic crisis is cast in a new light, with the focus placed especially on the states of Central and Eastern Europe. The second focal point takes the enduring surge in biographical research as an impetus to examine the reasons for the popularity of this genre within Jewish Studies. Using examples from current research projects on Jewish intellectuals, core issues and challenges of biographical writing are presented and discussed. The general part and the special sections of the Yearbook contain contributions on the conjunction of political and religious history, on the study of nationalism and historical semantics, as well as on Sholem Aleichem, Franz Neumann, and Ernst Grumach.
