Descriere completă

Jewish political movements entering the twentieth century faced a profound question: should survival depend on integration into secular modern society, or on preserving a distinct cultural and national identity? The answer fractured intellectual circles already divided by socialism, nationalism, and the pressures of modern Europe.This account examines the ideological conflicts between secular leftist assimilation movements and emerging forms of Jewish cultural nationalism during the early twentieth century. Some activists believed universal socialist politics could overcome ethnic and religious divisions altogether. Others argued that assimilation risked dissolving historical continuity and communal autonomy in increasingly volatile political environments.The book reconstructs debates carried through newspapers, unions, cafés, universities, and political organizations across Europe. Philosophers, sociologists, and organizers shaped broader conversations concerning minority identity, state power, and collective belonging at a moment when nationalism was transforming the continent. These internal divisions later influenced civil rights movements, protest strategies, and theories of political resistance far beyond Jewish communities themselves.The result is a study of modern ideology at the intersection of memory, migration, and competing visions of liberation.
