This is the story of the reemergence of the Jewish community in
Germany after its near total destruction during the Holocaust. In
western Germany, the community needed to overcome deep cultural,
religious, and political differences before uniting. In eastern
Germany, the small Jewish community struggled against communist
opposition. After coalescing, both Jewish communities, largely
isolated by the international Jewish community, looked to German
political leaders and the two German governments for support.
Through relationships with key German leaders, they achieved
stability by 1953, when West Germany agreed to pay reparations to
Israel and to individual Holocaust survivors and East Germany
experienced a wave of antisemitic purges. Using archival materials
from the Jewish communities of East and West Germany as well as
governmental and political party records, Geller elucidates the
reestablishment of organized Jewish life in Germany and the Jews'
critical ties to political leaders.
