Wisse Kelly Scott Johnson Sholem Schwarzbard: Biography of a Jewish Assassin Abstract The thesis represents the first complete academic biography of a Jewish clockmaker, warrior poet and Anarchist named Sholem Schwarzbard. Schwarzbard's experience was both typical and unique for a Jewish man of his era. It included four immigrations, two revolutions, numerous pogroms, a world war and, far less commonly, an assassination. The latter gained him fleeting international fame in 1926, when he killed the Ukrainian nationalist leader Symon Petliura in Paris in retribution for pogroms perpetrated during the Russian Civil War (1917-20). After a contentious trial, a French jury was sufficiently convinced both of Schwarzbard's sincerity as an avenger, and of Petliura's responsibility for the actions of his armies, to acquit him on all counts. Mostly forgotten by the rest of the world, the assassin has remained a divisive figure in Jewish-Ukrainian relations, leading to distorted and reductive descriptions his life. -

Unholy Alliances? Nationalist Exiles, Minorities and Anti-Fascism in Interwar Europe
Unholy Alliances? Nationalist Exiles, Minorities and Anti-Fascism in Interwar Europe XOSÉ M. NÚÑEZ SEIXAS Ethno-nationalist exiles in the interwar period were a unique species. While some of them relied on their own diasporic networks and waited for a chance, others established agitation platforms and regarded themselves as an alternative International of the ‘oppressed peoples’. Most of these alliances ended in failure, as it proved extremely difficult to reconcile the demands stemming from divergent national claims, such as those of autonomist factions versus irredentist or pro-independence groups, or those of national minorities seeking reintegration into their motherland as opposed to groups seeking independence. This article explores the relationship between minority nationalist exiles and anti-fascism by focusing on three issues: the emergence and evolution of ‘international alliances’ of minority activists in interwar Europe; contacts and ideological exchanges between ethno-nationalist exiles and liberal and anti-fascist segments of European public opinion and, finally, the emergence of a transnational anti-fascist nationality theory. In the aftermath of the First World War state borders in east-central Europe were redrawn at the Paris Peace Conference. The armed conflicts that subsequently broke out between various successor states, along with the progression of the Russian Civil War, forced dozens of ethno-nationalist activists into exile. Those belonging to national and ethnic minorities could easily find refuge in their respective ‘motherlands’, from Weimar Germany to post-Trianon Hungary. They created networks of political and cultural associations that served as the bases for stirring up irredentism, with official state support and often also with the collaboration of large portions of the homeland’s revisionist and nationalist parties. -

Mes amis Haim Musicant et Jean-Pierre Allali, ont pris l'heureuse initiative d'écrire et de publier cet ouvrage. Il tombe à point. Il rappellera aux jeunes l'histoire, les combats, les luttes des militants de la L.I.C.A. et de la L.I.C.R.A. qui sont fidèles au souvenir des anciens. Un fait divers meurtrier est à l'origine de la L.I.C.A. Les anciens, peu nombreux hélas, se souviennent avec émotion de cette séance de la cour d'assises à Paris où Samuel Schwarzbard était défendu par le célèbre avocat Henry Torrès. A l'époque, c'était le 26 octobre 1927, après le meurtre de l'organisateur des pogromes en Russie blanche, Henry Torrès, par sa magni- fique plaidoirie fit acquitter le justicier au milieu des applaudis- sements de la salle. C'est quelques mois plus tard, en février 1928 que Bernard Lecache déposa les statuts d'une association régie par la loi de 1901; la Ligue internationale contre le racisme et l'antisémi- tisme était née. Bernard Lecache, le fondateur, en était le premier président. Il le restera jusqu'à sa mort en 1968. -

REVIEW of the YEAR 5696* I While Much of the Attention of The
REVIEW OF THE YEAR 5696* BY HARRY SCHNEIDERMAN I THE UNITED STATES While much of the attention of the American Jewish community continued to be centered upon events affecting their brethren in Germany, tragic occurrences in Poland and in Palestine also gave American Jews cause for great concern during the period under review. REACTION TO BERLIN RIOTS Almost at the beginning of the period, a wave of anti- Jewish riots and acts of brutality against Jews was reported from Berlin. These occurrences could not be denied by the Nazi government. Their incidence was authenticated by eye-witnesses, including Varian Fry, editor of The Living Age, who gave a vivid description of them to the Associated Press. Public opinion in the United States was aroused, and leading newspapers denounced the Nazi government as responsible for the conditions which had led to the riots. Senators David I. Walsh (Mass.), Millard E. Tydings (Md.), J. Hamilton Lewis (111.), and Pat McCarran (Nev.), gave public expression to their sense of outrage. Dr. Ivan Lee Holt, president of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, also issued a statement deploring "the barbaric treatment of Christians and Jews in Germany." On July 24, 1935, Senator William H. King (Utah) urged that an investigation of Nazi persecution of Jews and Catholics be made to ascertain if the United States would be warranted in severing diplomatic relations with Germany. *The period covered by this review is from July 1, 1935, to June 30. 1936. It is based on reports in the Jewish and general press of the United States and a number of foreign countries. -
Aux Origines De La Ligue Internationale Contre Le Racisme Et L
Emmanuel Debono, « Les origines de la Ligue internationales contre le racisme et l’antisémitisme », Histoire@Politique. Politique, culture et société, N°2, septembre-octobre 2007, mis en ligne le 18.10.2007 sur www.histoire-politique.fr. Les origines de la Ligue internationale contre le racisme et l’antisémitisme (LICRA) Emmanuel Debono Il n’est guère étonnant de constater que certains détracteurs de l’actuelle LICRA appartenant à l’extrême droite reprennent à leur compte les attaques fantasmagoriques de leurs aînés des années 1930, voulant absolument voir dans la première organisation antiraciste française l’émanation d’un complot judéo-bolchevique, et en son président fondateur, Bernard Lecache1, un agent étranger appointé par Moscou. La LICRA n’a jamais fait mystère de ses origines. Le soutien apporté en 1927 à l’assassin juif d’un dirigeant ukrainien réfugié à Paris, qui se serait rendu coupable de massacres antijuifs, par un certain nombre de personnalités, constitue l’événement fondateur et, pourrait-on dire, inspirateur – en sa dimension justicière – de son combat. La thèse d’un crime politique commandité par le régime soviétique trouva à l’époque, comme elle trouve aujourd’hui encore en certains milieux, à s’opposer à cette version officielle, jetant l’opprobre sur la Ligue internationale contre les pogromes, née à la suite du procès de l’assassin Schwartzbard, et sur l’organisation qui lui succéda en 1929, la Ligue internationale contre l’antisémitisme (LICA)2. Comme souvent, les amalgames malveillants ne se constituent pas ex nihilo : ils entretiennent un lien, fut-il ténu, à la réalité qui permet à l’agression de porter, à la manière d’une caricature qui force et déforme certains traits d’un visage, mais conserve malgré tout un rapport à la vérité.
