Works about this Work

Zionism, Assimilationism and Antifascism : Divergent International Jewish Pathways in Three Post-War Australian Jewish Magazines Max Kaiser , 2020 single work criticism
— Appears in: The Transnational Voices of Australia’s Migrant and Minority Press 2020; (p. 107-125)

'In the immediate post-war period, Jewish communities worldwide sought to draw political lessons from the events of the Holocaust, the rise of fascism and the Second World War. At the same time, diasporic Jewish communities were struggling to create new political frameworks to understand the establishment of the State of Israel. In Australia, these conditions produced an intense level of cultural and political debate in the Jewish community. This chapter examines three major Jewish magazines of this period: Unity; The Zionist; and The Australian Jewish Outlook. These magazines reflected different perspectives on Jewish politics, representing antifascist, Zionist and assimilationist ideas, respectively. A central feature of these magazines was a transnational political imagination. The issues of Jews in Australia were refracted through an international lens.'
