Jews, Race, and the Politics of Difference explores how Russian
Jewish writers and political activists such as Vladimir Jabotinsky
turned to "race" as an operational concept in the late imperial
politics of the Russian Empire. Building on the latest scholarship
on racial thinking and Jewish identities, Marina Mogilner shows how
Jewish anthropologists, ethnographers, writers, lawyers, and
political activists in late imperial Russia sought to construct a
Jewish identity based on racial categorization in addition to
religious affiliation. By grounding nationality not in culture and
territory but in blood and biology, race offered Jewish
nationalists in Russia a scientifically sound and politically
effective way to reaffirm their common identity. Jews, Race, and
the Politics of Difference presents the works of Jabotinsky as a
lens to understanding Jewish "self-racializing," and brings Jews
and race together in a framework that is more multifaceted and
controversial than that implied by the usual narratives of racial
antisemitism.
