"In this remarkable history of origins, Nora Levin recaptures the personalities, ideas, and events of the far-reaching socialist movements. Out of the circles of Russian populism in the 1870s came the first Jewish socialists and the originators of a many-sided and vigorous politics. Nora Levin deals with the development of the non-Zionist Jewish socialist Bund in Russia, with Labour Zionism, and with the American Jewish labour movement" (from front flap). 88680.
