Periphery and Center. Jews in the Bohemian Lands from 1945 to the Present
Original language description
In Chapter 7 Kateřina Čapková highlights the many challenges faced by Jews in the Bohemian Lands after the defeat of Germany at the end of World War II. She reminds us that, alongside the demography of destruction and depopulation after the war, there also was a demography of return and repopulation. About half of the Jewish population of the Bohemian Lands immediately after the war was made up of migrants from other parts of the country, including people who often were more religiously observant than local Jews and whose mother tongue was not Czech, but rather Yiddish, Hungarian, Slovak, or Polish. Many of these people, Čapková argues, reinvigorated Jewish religious and cultural life in the 1950s and 1960s, and helped to insure its survival.
