The American Jewish Communist movement played a major role in the
politics of Jewish communities in cities such as Boston, Chicago,
Los Angeles, New York, and Philadelphia, as well as in many other
centers, between the 1920s and the 1950s. Making extensive use of
Yiddish-language books, newspapers, periodicals, pamphlets, and
other materials, Dreams of Nationhood traces the ideological and
material support provided to the Jewish Autonomous Region of
Birobidzhan, located in the far east of the Soviet Union, by two
American Jewish Communist-led organizations, the ICOR and the
American Birobidzhan Committee. By providing a detailed historical
examination of the political work of these two groups, the book
makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of
twentieth-century Jewish life in the United States.
