Jewish Immigrants and American Capitalism, 1880–1920: From Caste to Class
Lederhendler, Eli (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
In Jewish Immigrants and American Capitalism, 1880–1920: From Caste to Class, Eli Lederhendler revises common assumptions about the immigration of Russian Jews to the United States, demonstrating that the characteristics responsible for their image as a 'model' immigrant minority were not inherent but developed through a realignment of Jewish social values in response to their new experiences.
