What were relations with Muslims like? What made Jews leave countries where they had been settled for thousands of years? What lessons can we learn from the mass exodus of minorities from the Middle East? Lyn Julius undertakes to answer all these questions and more in Uprooted, the culmination of ten years of work studying these issues. Jews lived continuously in the Middle East and North Africa for almost 3,000 years. Yet, in just 50 years, their indigenous communities outside Palestine almost totally disappeared as more than 99 percent of the Jewish population fled. Those with foreign passports and connections generally left for Europe, Australia, or the Americas. Some 650,000-including a minority of ideological Zionists-went to Israel. Before the Holocaust they constituted ten percent of the world's Jewish population, and now over 50 percent of Israel's Jews are refugees from Arab and Muslim countries, or their descendants. This same process is now repeating in Christian and other minority communities across the Middle East. This book also assesses how well these Jews have integrated into Israel and how their struggles have been politicized. It charts the growing clamour for recognition, redress and memorialization for these Jewish refugees, and looks at how their cause can contribute to peace and reconciliation between Israel and the Muslim world?--Back cover. 650 0 $a Jews $z Arab countries $x History. 650 0 $a Antisemitism $z Arab countries $x History. 650 0 $a Jews $x Persecutions $z Arab countries. 650 0 $a Arab countries $x History. $x History. 650 7 $a Antisemitism $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00810769 650 7 $a Jews $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00983135 650 7 $a Jews $x Persecutions $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00983322 651 7 $a Arab countries $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240128 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20190808010321.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D2338984B9A111E9BAE4600C97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b IX2Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
