Text of Note

Analyzes the dynamics of relations between Jews and the American state. Opens with a general theory, illustrated by numerous historical examples, according to which the Jews constitute a conspicuous and thriving group in the society of the countries in which they live. In light of this fact, they seek the support of the ruling elite. The elite, however, is not always ready to maintain an alliance with the Jews, while the state will break it when it no longer needs it or when it wants to consolidate society at the expense of the Jews. The Jews in the USA rely upon American liberalism, believing that it is the only real American ideology, but it is only the prevailing ideology and must compete with others, such as populism and conservatism. Examines Black-Jewish relations in light of the Jews' commitment to liberalism and the Black leaders' use of populist, antisemitic rhetoric. Despite the fact that Jews achieved considerable influence in the USA in the 1930s-80s, their position remains insecure. There are indications that the new conservative elite is not interested in the Jews' support.
