Rezensionen
«Nichtsdestotrotz gelingt es W. B., eine Vielzahl interessanter Erkenntnisse über die in der israelischen Geschichtsschreibung immer noch mit vielen Mythen behaftete vierte Einwanderungswelle anhand individueller Schicksale zutage zu fördern und teleologische Darstellungen jüdischer Migration zwischen Ostmitteleuropa und Palästina zu hinterfra-gen. Damit leistet die Autorin gleichzeitig einen wichtigen Anstoß für weitere historiografische Unternehmungen.»
(Daniel Mahla, Zeitschrift für Ostmitteleuropa-Forschung 2/2018)
