From the Paper:
"Between 1881 and 1914 approximately two and a half million Jews crossed national borders. Generally, Jews migrated in search of economic betterment and escape from political oppression and they immigrated primarily to liberal countries undergoing large-scale economic development. Once there, Jewish communities were able to use the lessons they had learned under the political and economic oppression of their native lands to employ basic entrepreneurial activities that would eventually bring many of them economic success. However, this period would also begin the process of Jewish assimilation and acculturation that would force the Jewish community to later take deliberate steps to ensure the continuity of its Jewish ethnicity."More papers on American Jewish History:
