This book explores the transformative impact that the immigration
of large numbers of Jews from the former Soviet Union to Germany
had on Jewish communities from 1990 to 2005. It focuses on four
points of tension and conflict between existing community members
and new Russian-speaking arrivals. These raised the fundamental
questions: who should count as a Jew, how should Jews in Germany
relate to the Holocaust, and who should the communities represent?
By analyzing a wide range of source material, including Jewish and
German newspapers, Bundestag debates and the opinions of some
prominent Jewish commentators, Joseph Cronin investigates how such
conflicts arose within Jewish communities and the measures taken to
deal with them. This book provides a unique insight into a Jewish
population little understood outside Germany, but whose
significance in the post-Holocaust world cannot be underestimated.
