- W37219969 abstract "Writing the history of the recent past is always a dangerous exercise. Writing the history of the recent Jewish past can also be a depressing one. And no Jewish historian, attempting to trace any facet of recent Jewish history, can, I believe, do so merely on account of the past's intrinsic value. We Jews live with our past; we cannot escape from it. We ought not to ignore its lessons, for we are burdened with its conse? quences. And those of us whose interests lie in the field of Anglo-Jewish history clearly have a special duty to write and explain that history, 'warts and all'. Too much of what, until fairly recently, had been written about the history of the Jewish community in the United Kingdom was family history, to the exclusion of communal developments. Too much communal history has been concerned with growth and achieve? ment, not enough with difficulties and shortcomings. Too much has been concerned with London, to the exclusion of provincial Jewry. Too much has, para? doxically, been concerned narrowly with Jews, not enough with the gentiles among whom we find our? selves. The story which I shall endeavour to tell is offered as a small contribution towards remedying these imbalances. Thejewish communities which developed in South Wales in the second half of the nineteenth century based themselves upon the growth of the coal, iron, and tinplate industries of that region. They were as much products of industrial South Wales as the min? ing and metallurgical industries, and the difficulties which confronted them ought to be seen, in part at least, as a by-product of problems attendant upon rapid industrialisation. The history of these communi? ties down to the First World War does, in fact, pro? vide a graphic illustration of the role which Jewish communities traditionally play as scapegoats for economic ills and industrial unrest." @default.
