Jews in Egypt

Viac o knihe

The discourse about Jewish Communists in Egypt shows that the perception of minorities is linked to the majority's perception of its own condition. Jewish Communists became politically active in a period when Egyptian society as a whole was in a process of change. Where that change would lead was open. Different political and social forces were engaged in a power struggle. Young Jews turned to communism because it seemed to be the best basis for social justice and equality.
