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. 542 1 |fThis work is licensed by Knowledge Unlatched under a Creative Commons license |uhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/legalcode 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 610 20 Icor. 650 0 Jews |zUnited States |xPolitics and government |y20th century. 650 0 Jewish communists |zUnited States |xHistory |y20th century. 650 0 Communism |zUnited States |xHistory |y20th century. 651 0 |6880-01Birobidzhan (Russia) |xHistory. 651 0 Evreĭskai͡a avtonomnai͡a oblastʹ (Russia) |xHistory. 650 7 HISTORY |zUnited States |xState & Local |xGeneral. |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY |zUnited States |y20th Century. |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY |zUnited States |xState & Local |vGeneral. |2bisacsh 610 27 Icor. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00684188 650 7 Communism. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00870421 650 7 Jewish communists. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00982722 650 7 Jews |xPolitics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00983330 651 7 Russia (Federation) |zBirobidzhan. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01212374 651 7 Russia (Federation) |zEvreĭskai͡a avtonomnai͡a oblastʹ. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01224399 651 7 United States. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 1900-1999 |2fast 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:Srebrnik, Henry Felix. |tDreams of nationhood. |dBoston : Academic Studies Press, 2010 |z9781936235117 |w(DLC) 2010024428 |w(OCoLC)639167535 830 0 Jewish identities in post modern society. 856 40 |3Electronic version(s) available. |zHosted by Eastview |uhttp://dlib.eastview.com/browse/book/23461 880 4 |6651-01Evrei⁺їskaiı̐¡aı̐Ł avtonomnaiı̐¡aı̐Ł oblast⁽£ (Russia) |xHistory. 852 |bebook
