Jonathan Goldstein?s book covers the period from 1750 and focuses on seven of the area?s largest cities and trading emporia: Singapore, Manila, Taipei, Harbin, Shanghai, Rangoon, and Surabaya. The book isolates five factors which contributed to the formation of transnational, multiethnic, and multicultural identity: memory, colonialism, regional nationalism, socialism, and Zionism. It emphasizes those factors which preserved specifically Judaic aspects of identity. Drawing extensively on interviews conducted in all seven cities as well as governmental, institutional, commercial, and personal archives, censuses, and cemetery data, the book provides overviews of communal life and intimate portraits of leading individuals and families. Jews were engaged in everything from business and finance to revolutionary activity. Some collaborated with the Japanese while others confronted them on the battlefield. The book attempts to treat fully and fairly the wide spectrum of Jewish experience ranging from that of the ultra-Orthodox to the completely secular. 410 0$aNew perspectives on modern Jewish history ;$vVolume 6. 606 $aJews$zEast Asia$xHistory 606 $aJews$zSoutheast Asia$xHistory 606 $aJews$zEast Asia$xIdentity 606 $aJews$zSoutheast Asia$xIdentity 607 $aEast Asia$2fast 607 $aSoutheast Asia$2fast 615 0$aJews$xHistory. 615 0$aJews$xHistory. 615 0$aJews$xIdentity. 615 0$aJews$xIdentity. 676 $a950.42004924 700 $aGoldstein$b Jonathan$0173889 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827438203321 996 $aJewish identities in East and Southeast Asia$94113826 997 $aUNINA
