In this, his first book, Klier offers an important analysis of Russia's early acquisition of, attitudes toward, and administration of its Jewish population. He argues that the Russian response to the Jewish Question was based less on a tradition or religious antipathy than on the failure to develop a consistent, well-articulated policy in the face of a new and unusual problem. This failure led to ineffective social legislation and became the legacy of Russia's first encounter with the Jews.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis essential book will be of enduring interest to scholars of modern Russian and Jewish history.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Doyle Klier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0875809839\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780875809830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Northern Illinois University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"John Doyle Klier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988316684543,"sku":"9780875809830","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_53980cf7-518e-457d-858d-558080a8de23.jpg?v=1683293854","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/russia-gathers-her-jews-john-doyle-klier-9780875809830","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
