This book studies the priorities of that community, and thereby seeks to analyse the attitudes and philosophies which informed actions. It paints a picture of Anglo-Jewish life and its reactions to a wide range of matters in the non-Jewish world. The text charts the transmission of the news of the European catastrophe and discusses the various theories regarding reactions to these exceptional circumstances. It investigates the structures and political philosophies of Anglo-Jewry during the war years and covers the reactions of Jewish political and religious leaders as well as prominent Jews acting outside the community's institutional framework.Liverpool scholarship online.JewsGreat BritainHistory20th centuryHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Public opinionJewsGreat BritainAttitudesJewsHistoryHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Public opinion.JewsAttitudes.940.53/18Bolchover Richard917436StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910467033803321British Jewry and the Holocaust2057057UNINA
