This was a watershed moment in Canadian Jewish history. The unprecedented scale of the relief effort required for the survivors, compounded by their unique social, psychological, and emotional needs challenged both the established Jewish community and resettlement agents alike. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdara Goldberg's \u003cem\u003eHolocaust Survivors in Canada\u003c\/em\u003e highlights the immigration, resettlement, and integration experience from the perspective of Holocaust survivors and those charged with helping them. The book explores the relationships between the survivors, Jewish social service organizations, and local Jewish communities; it considers how those relationships--strained by disparities in experience, language, culture, and worldview--both facilitated and impeded the ability of survivors to adapt to a new country. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResearched in basement archives and as well as at Holocaust survivors' kitchen tables, \u003cem\u003eHolocaust Survivors in Canada\u003c\/em\u003e represents the first comprehensive analysis of the resettlement, integration, and acculturation experience of survivors in early postwar Canada. Goldberg reveals the challenges in responding to, and recovering from, genocide--not through the lens of lawmakers, but from the perspective of \"new Canadians\" themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Manitoba Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47574540976279,"sku":"9780887557767","price":2921.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780887557767.webp?v=1774895729","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/holocaust-survivors-in-canada-exclusion-inclusion-transformation-1947-1955-9780887557767","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
