Buchbeschreibung Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. First edition. Octavo. ix, (1), 223, (1)pp. Index. Green photographic boards lettered in white. A fine, as new copy. This volume focuses on the postwar rehabilitation of Jews returning to their countries of origin or starting from scratch elsewhere. Migrant Holocaust survivors and Jews from Arab and Muslim countries had to rebuild their lives after suffering extreme persecution. (OCLC) This volume offers insights into the major Jewish migration movements and rebuilding of European Jewish communities in the mid-twentieth century. Its chapters illustrate many facets of the Jews' often traumatic post-war experiences. People had to find their way when returning to their countries of origin or starting from scratch in a new land. Their experiences and hardships from country to country and from one community of migrants to another are analyzed here. The mass exodus of Jews from Arab and Muslim countries is also addressed to provide a necessary and broader insight into how those challenges were met, as both migrations were a result of persecution, as well as discrimination.
