It seems that the designation, to distinguish the movement from the activity of the Chovevei Zion, was first used by Matthias Acher (Birnbaum) in his paper “Selbstemancipation,” 1886 (see “Ost und West,” 1902, p. 576: Ahad ha – ‘Am, “Al Parashat Derakim,” p. 93, Berlin, 1903). Biblical Basis The idea of a return of the Jews to Palestine has its roots in many passages of Holy Writ. It is an integral part of the doctrine that deals with the Messianic time, as is seen in the constantly recurring expression, “shub shebut” or heshib shebut,” used both of Israel and of Judah (Jer. xxx, 7,1; Ezek. Xxxix. 24; Lam. Ii. 14; Hos. Vi. 11; Joel iv. 1 et al.). The Dispersion was deemed merely temporal: ‘The days come … that … I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof … and I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land” (Amos ix.

Refugees are people who have a very real fear of persecution because of their race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. They have fled human rights abuse or conflict, and have sought asylum outside their home country. Most of them are women and children. How many refugees are there? Refugee resettlement and protection is more important now than ever. According to the UN refugee agency, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are 65 million displaced persons worldwide, of which 22.5 million are refugees. UNHCR identified 1.2 million of those as needing resettlement to a third country. Resettlement is the last resort for refugees. Fewer than one percent are considered for resettlement. The U.S. historically has resettled the most vulnerable refugees, including female-headed households, victims of torture, LGBT refugees, and people with extreme medical needs.

  • Antisemitism in the United States Report of an Expert Consultation
    Antisemitism in the United States Report of an Expert Consultation Organized by AJC’s Jacob Blaustein Institute for the Advancement of Human Rights in Cooperation with UN Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Religion or Belief, Dr. Ahmed Shaheed 10-11 April 2019, New York City Introduction On March 5, 2019, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief, Dr. Ahmed Shaheed, announced that he was preparing a thematic report on global antisemitism to be presented to the UN General Assembly in New York in the fall of 2019. The Special Rapporteur requested that the Jacob Blaustein Institute for the Advancement of Human Rights (JBI) organize a consultation that would provide him with information about antisemitism in the United States as he carried out his broader research. In response, JBI organized a two-day expert consultation on Wednesday, April 10 and Thursday, April 11, 2019 at AJC’s Headquarters in New York. Participants discussed how antisemitism is manifested in the U.S., statistics and trends concerning antisemitic hate crimes, and government and civil society responses to the problem. This event followed an earlier consultation in Geneva, Switzerland convened by JBI for Dr. Shaheed in June 2018 on global efforts to monitor and combat antisemitism and engaging the United Nations human rights system to address this problem.1 I. Event on April 10, 2019: Antisemitism in the United States: An Overview On April 10, several distinguished historians and experts offered their perspectives on antisemitism in the United States.

  • Letter on Refugee and Asylum Priorities During Covid-19
    May 1, 2020 Dear Member of Congress: We, the undersigned 192 national, state, and local Jewish organizations from around the United States, recognize that our country's needs during the COVID-19 crisis are vast, but strongly urge you to ensure that our country’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic includes resettled refugees, Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) recipients, asylum seekers, and asylees. While many of us can safely socially distance ourselves within our homes, we are constantly reminded that the same is not true for many of our immigrant neighbors, many of whom are on the frontlines risking their own health and safety to keep our country running. Any measures aimed at combating COVID-19 that exclude immigrants place the whole country at risk. As Congress considers the next COVID-19 legislative package, we urge you to include provisions that will ensure that resettled refugees, especially recent arrivals, as well as SIV recipients and others who receive resettlement and integration services, also have access to the safety nets and literal life-saving services that so many of us need right now. Specifically we call on you to: • Provide $642 million in Refugee and Entrant Assistance (REA) funds for the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This is the minimum level of funding that resettlement experts have agreed is needed to support services that would help resettled refugees, SIV recipients, and asylees access cash and medical assistance, housing assistance, assistance with utilities, transportation, food, and health care so that they can stay healthy and keep their heads above water while it remains terribly difficult to find and keep employment and access health care.

  • Enzo Joseph Bonaventura's La Psicoanalisi: the Importance of His
    Enzo Joseph Bonaventura’s La psicoanalisi: * The importance of his thinking, history of a repression David Meghnagi** Abstract. Enzo Joseph Bonaventura (1891-1948) was one of the most authoritative figures of experimental psychology in Italy between the two World Wars. Bonaventura was also a pioneer of the Italian Psychoanalysis, to which he dedicated the exhaustive handbook titled La psicoanalisi. The aim of this paper is to review La psicoanalisi in order to reconstruct a painful historical period that has been mostly forgotten. Born in Pisa to a Jewish family, in 1913, Bonaventura graduated from Florence University with a degree in philosophy. His supervising professor, Francesco De Sarlo, hired him as an assistant in the University Laboratory of Psychology. Bonaventura was a polyhedral figure with interests spanning across many fields such as philosophy, theology, developmental psychology, psychology of motivation and education. He was also a charismatic figure in the Italian Zionist movement. Expelled from the University of Florence because of the Italian “Racial Laws”, he moved to Jerusalem where he played an important role in the development of academic psychology research in Israel. He died tragically on the 13th of April, in an ambush to the convoy of medical staff by the Hadassah. Keywords: Anti-Semitism; Hebrew University of Jerusalem; History of Psychoanalysis; Father Agostino Gemelli; Silvano Arieti; Francesco De Sarlo; Cesare Musatti. «It seemed to us that in order to more fairly assess what is truly original and profound in psychoanalysis, it would be best to [...] place it within the vast framework of contemporary psychology […]” (Enzo Bonaventura, La psicoanalisi [1938; reprint: 2016], p.

  • History of the Jews
    II ADVERTISEMENTS Should be in Every Jewish Home AN EPOCH-MAKING WORK COVERING A PERIOD OF ABOUT FOUR THOUSAND YEARS PROF. HE1NRICH GRAETZ'S HISTORY OF THE JEWS THE MOST AUTHORITATIVE AND COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY OF THE JEWS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE HANDSOMELY AND DURABLY BOUND IN SIX VOLUMES Contains more than 4000 pages, a Copious Index of more than 8000 Subjects, and a Number of Good Sized Colored Maps. SOME ENTHUSIASTIC APPRECIATIONS DIFFICULT TASK PERFORMED WITH CONSUMMATE SKILL "Graetz's 'Geschichte der Juden1 has superseded all former works of its kind, and has been translated into English, Russian and Hebrew, and partly into Yiddish and French. That some of these translations have been edited three or four times—a very rare occurrence in Jewish literature—are in themselves proofs of the worth of the work. The material for Jewish history being so varied, the sources so scattered in the literatures of all nations, made the presentation of this history a very difficult undertaking, and it cannot be denied that Graetz performed his task with consummate skill."—The Jewish Encyclopedia. GREATEST AUTHORITY ON SUBJECT "Professor Graetz is the historiographer par excellence of the Jews. His work, at present the authority upon the subject of Jewish History, bids fair to hold its pre-eminent position for some time, perhaps decades."—Preface to Index Volume. MOST DESIRABLE TEXT-BOOK "If one desires to study the history of the Jewish people under the direction of a scholar and pleasant writer who is in sympathy with his subject, because he is himself a Jew, he should resort to the volumes of Graetz."—"Review ofRevitvit (New York).

  • Facing the Sea: the Jews of Salonika in the Ottoman Era (1430–1912)
    Facing the Sea: The Jews of Salonika in the Ottoman Era (1430–1912) Minna Rozen Afula, 2011 1 © All rights reserved to Minna Rozen 2011 No part of this document may be reproduced, published, stored in an electronic database, or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, recording, or otherwise, for any purpose, without the prior written permission of the author ([email protected]). 2 1. Origins, Settlement and Heyday, 1430–1595 Jews resided in Salonika many centuries before the Turkic tribes first made their appearance on the borders of Western civilization, at the Islamic world’s frontier. In fact, Salonika was one of the cities in whose synagogue the apostle Paul had preached Jesus’ teachings. Like many other Jewish communities is this part of the Roman (and later the Byzantine) Empire, this had been a Greek-speaking community leading its life in much the same way as the Greek pagans, and later, the Christian city dwellers around them. The Ottoman conquest of Salonika in 1430 did little to change their lifestyle. A major upheaval did take place, however, with the Ottoman takeover of Constantinople in 1453. The Ottoman Sultan Mehmet II, the Conqueror (Fatih in Turkish), aimed to turn the former Byzantine capital into the hub of his Empire, a world power in its own right on a par with such earlier grand empires as the Roman and the Persian. To that effect, he ordered the transfer of entire populations— Muslims, Greeks, and Jews—from other parts of his empire to the new capital in order to rebuild and repopulate it.
