At the beginning of the twentieth century, more Jews lived in the Russian Empire than anywhere else in the world. After the Holocaust, the USSR remained one of the world's three key centers of Jewish population, along with the United States and Israel. While a great deal is known about the history and experiences of the Jewish people in the US and in Israel in the twentieth century, much less is known about the experiences of Soviet Jews. Understanding the history of Jewish communities under Soviet rule is essential to comprehending the dynamics of Jewish history in the modern world. Only a small number of scholars and the last generation of Soviet Jews who lived during this period hold a deep knowledge of this history. Jews in the Soviet Union, a new multi-volume history, is an unprecedented undertaking. Publishing over the next few years, this groundbreaking work draws on rare access to documents from the Soviet archives, allowing for the presentation of a sweeping history of Jewish life in the Soviet Union from 1917 through the early 1990s. Volume 3 explores how the Soviet Union's changing relations with Nazi Germany between the signing of a nonaggression pact in August 1939 and the Soviet victory over German forces in World War II affected the lives of some five million Jews who lived under Soviet rule at the beginning of that period. Nearly three million of those Jews perished; those who remained constituted a drastically diminished group, which represented a truncated but still numerically significant postwar Soviet Jewish community.--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aHISTORY / Jewish$2bisacsh 607 $aSoviet Union$2fast 608 $aHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aHISTORY / Jewish. 676 $a947/.004924 700 $aBudnitskii$b Oleg$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01725398 702 $aEngel$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aEngel$b David$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aE?strai?kh$b G$g(Gennadii?),$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aE?strai?kh$b G$g(Gennadii?),$4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910845066403321 996 $aJews in the Soviet Union: A History$94128410 997 $aUNINA
