Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

  • Schiffer Thesis
    1 Abstract How are political identities formed? This thesis takes a historical-institutionalist, process-based view of the phenomenon of political identity formation in the United States, specifically focusing on the mixed impacts that party actors as agents asserting ideational claims have on the consolidation of in-group belonging. Using the case of the Jewish Labor Bund, a revolutionary socialist party in the Tsarist-administered Pale of Settlement from 1897-1943, this thesis traces Bundist party diaspora members’ movement from the Pale to New York City in the early 20th century, using historical process tracing to causally establish the relationship between three facets of Bundist ideology—cultural national autonomy socialism, Yiddishism, and trade unionism—and the formation of a post-diasporic American Jewish identity in New York City. Ultimately, this thesis concludes that the result of the “party diaspora” asserting its ideational commitments was the marginalization of cultural-national autonomy socialism, the depoliticization of Yiddishism, and the incorporation of trade unionism into the Jewish labor movement—suggesting that political identity is not unitary, but itself contested. These insights indicate that a process-based view of identity formation which incorporates historical contingency, institutional encounter, and the agency of political actors has substantial benefits for the study of identity, diaspora populations, and the movement of ideas in political science. 2 Fragments of Revolution: The Jewish Labor Bund and the

  • From Meyer London to Alexandria Ocasio- Cortez
    From Meyer London to Alexandria Ocasio- Cortez Before there was Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, there was New York’s Socialist congressman Meyer London. His experience in Washington is full of lessons for us today. Meyer London, American Socialist Congressman, speaking at a rally of striking Brooklyn streetcar workers, July 15, 1916. Bain News Service / Wikimedia It’s apparent to both her friends and enemies — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is different than the corporate politicians we’ve grown used to. Before even taking office, Ocasio-Cortez has already sparked a membership surge in the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), floated the idea of a new congressional sub-caucus, promoted civil disobedience inside of Nancy Pelosi’s office, and opposed Amazon’s push for a government-subsidized headquarters in Queens. As she put it in a tweet advocating a Green New Deal and a federal jobs guarantee, it’s well past time that elected officials “push the limits of what’s possible.” In a context marked by deep popular anger at the status quo, these are encouraging signs. Bernie Sanders, Rashida Tlaib, Julia Salazar, and other recently elected socialists seem poised to play a major role reviving a working- class left in the United States. The political possibilities are immense, but so are the pressures from above. Moderating constraints on Ocasio-Cortez will significantly increase over time and it’s not yet clear how far she is prepared to break from the norms, politics, and structures of the Democratic Party. Alongside more insurgent moves, she has also extended some olive branches to the party establishment, such as pledging her support for Nancy Pelosi as House Speaker.
