Dr. Karlip鈥檚 recently published book, (Harvard University Press, 2013) examines the 鈥渋deal鈥� of Diaspora Nationalism, a pre-WWII movement seeking Jewish national autonomy within Europe, and its complex relationship to other ideologies such as Yiddishism, traditional Judaism, Zionism and socialism. Karlip, Associate Professor of Jewish History at Revel and 麻豆区 College, focuses on three Diaspora nationalist leaders鈥擸isroel Efroikin, Zelig Kalmanovitch and Elias Tcherikower鈥攆rom the 1905 Russian Revolution through the movement鈥檚 ideological demise with the rise of Nazism and the Holocaust. has garnered outstanding praise in the , , and . According to one reviewer, Ezra Mendelsohn (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, in East European Jewish Affairs), 鈥淜arlip leads us, in some detail, through the permutations, the seemingly endless shifts of opinion, and the bursts of pessimism and optimism that characterised the advocates of the autonomist idea during the period between the two Russian revolutions and during the interwar period.鈥�   鈥淜arlip does more than just read this familiar trope into the history of Diaspora nationalism,鈥� states another reviewer, Anna Cichopek-Gajraj (Arizona State University, in AJS Review). 鈥淗e examines the inter-face between Jewish nationalism and religious Orthodoxy and, by doing so, he successfully goes beyond a simple model of rejection and return to religious tradition, and thus beyond a simple dichotomy of the religious and the secular in modern Jewish politics. He shows that secular politics did not simply supersede religion but rather that the two remained in a constant if tense relationship.鈥� 鈥淭he result,鈥� judges Robert Legvold (Foreign Affairs), 鈥渋s a substantial enrichment of Russian, eastern European, and Jewish history.鈥� .
