Description

The year 1929 represents a pivotal moment in Jewish history, as global events had a profound impact on communities around the world. In the United States, the stock market crash led to lasting economic and social changes that affected the Jewish community. Meanwhile, in Palestine, anti-Jewish riots highlighted the vulnerability of the Zionist enterprise, sparking heated debates among Jewish political groups. This collection of essays explores the transnational connections between Jews worldwide, from politics and diplomacy to literature and culture. Featuring a diverse range of scholars, 1929 sheds light on the global context that shaped Jewish experiences in America, the Soviet Union, Germany, Poland, and Palestine. By examining this pivotal year, the book reveals how Jews lived in a shared world, connected by their experiences and challenges, regardless of their location.
