Ethnic groups were supposed to disappear. Marxists, western liberals and social scientists agreed on that for different reasons. For Marxists, the inevitable demise of capitalism would do it. Others banked on economic development and "modernization" to rendered ethnicity and other "traditional" categories irrelevant. Many intellectuals and statesmen believed that the era of ethnicity and nationalism, which had brought such violence and bloodshed to the mankind, would soon be superseded by a rational and scientific temper in the world. After the Second World War nationalism had been sufficiently discredited so that all expressions of ethnicity would be looked at askance. Yet, ethnicity persists and is one of the fundamental cleavages in many European, Asian and African societies, as well in parts of the Americas. As the example of Yugoslavia shows, national or ethnic hatreds can still be the basis for wars, the dismemberment of states, and the killing of one's neighbors, even in a region which suffered so much from ethnic wars just half a century earlier. After discussing ethnicity, we shall return to its predicted demise and why it has persisted"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000693830 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zRussia$$xIdentity. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zUkraine$$xIdentity. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zRussia$$xPolitics and government$$y20th century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zRussia$$xSocial conditions$$y20th century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zRussia$$xPolitics and government$$y21st century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zRussia$$xSocial conditions$$y21st century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zUkraine$$xPolitics and government$$y20th century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zUkraine$$xSocial conditions$$y20th century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zUkraine$$xPolitics and government$$y21st century. 000693830 650_0 $$aJews$$zUkraine$$xSocial conditions$$y21st century. 000693830 651_0 $$aRussia$$xEthnic relations. 000693830 651_0 $$aUkraine$$xEthnic relations. 000693830 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGitelman, Zvi Y.$$tJewish identities in postcommunist Russia and Ukraine.$$dNew York : Cambridge University Press, 2012$$z9781107023284$$w(DLC) 2012010131$$w(OCoLC)780288958 000693830 852__ $$bacq 000693830 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 000693830 85640 $$3EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=494730$$zOnline Access 000693830 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:693830$$pGLOBAL_SET 000693830 980__ $$aEBOOK 000693830 980__ $$aBIB 000693830 982__ $$aEbook 000693830 983__ $$aOnline 000693830 994__ $$a92$$bISE
