Bridging German-Jewish and Israeli history, this book tells the story of German-Jewish migration to Mandate Palestine/Eretz Israel as gender history. It argues that this migration was shaped and structured by gendered policies and ideologies and experienced by men and women in a gendered form - from the decision to immigrate and the anticipation of change, through the outcomes for family life, body, self-image, and sexuality. Immigration led to immediate transformations in allocations of tasks within the family, concepts of masculinity and femininity, and participation in the labor market and domestic life. Through a close examination of archival materials in German, English, and Hebrew, including administrative records, personal documents, newspapers, and oral history interviews conducted by the author, this book follows Jewish migrants along their journeys from Germany and into the workplaces, living rooms, and kitchens of their new homeland, providing a new perspective on everyday life in Mandate Palestine. Viola Alianov-Rautenberg's work illuminates key issues at the intersection of migration studies, German-Jewish studies, and Israeli history, demonstrating how the lens of gender enriches our understanding of social change, power, ethnicity, and nation-building"-- |cProvided by publisher. 591 Record updated by Marcive brief record update service 24 June 2024 599 Shelved at 79-4-1 650 0 Jews, German |zPalestine |xHistory |y20th century. 650 0 Sex role |zPalestine |xHistory |y20th century. 651 0 Palestine |xEmigration and immigration |xSocial aspects. 651 0 Palestine |xSocial conditions |y20th century. 651 0 Palestine |xHistory |y1917-1948. 650 7 Gender roles. |2homoit 776 08 |iOnline version:Alianov-Rautenberg, Viola. |tNo longer ladies and gentlemen. |dStanford, California : Stanford University Press, [2023] |z9781503637238 |w(DLC) 2023016821 830 0 Stanford studies in Jewish history and culture. 852 0 |breceiving |kShelved at 79-4-1
