Jews in Egypt

Beschreibung

The discourse about Jewish Communists in Egypt shows that the perception of minorities is linked to the majority's perception of its own condition. Jewish Communists became politically active in a period when Egyptian society as a whole was in a process of change. Where that change would lead was open. Different political and social forces were engaged in a power struggle. Young Jews turned to communism because it seemed to be the best basis for social justice and equality.
