Kurzfassung:
"The 30,000 Jews in northern Morocco developed a sense of kinship with modern Spain, medieval Sepharad, and with the broader Hispanophone world that was unlike anything experienced elsewhere. Most were native speakers of Haketia -a North African Judeo-Spanish dialect. They began leaving in the nineteenth century, becoming the largest Moroccan group that departed for South America. A Hispanic Moroccan Jewish diaspora, as this group is often called by scholars and its community leaders, became highly mobile in the twentieth century, with major hubs in Spain, Venezuela, and Israel, and smaller ones in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, France, and the U.S among others. Drawing on an array of communal sources from across this diaspora and privileging the voices and agency of individual players, Aviad Moreno examines how its leaders came to maintain narratives of common ancestry in multiple homelands, and today participate in an interconnected, worldwide diaspora. In the twenty-first century, global networks empower the diaspora's hubs locally, facilitating integration into their respective national settings and with Hispanic Moroccan Jews from other diaspora hubs"--
Kurzfassung:
"Entwined Homelands, Empowered Diasporas explores how the 30,000 Jews in northern Morocco developed a sense of kinship with modern Spain, medieval Sepharad, and the broader Hispanophone world that was unlike anything experienced elsewhere. The Hispanic Moroccan Jewish diaspora, as this group is often called by its scholars and its community leaders, also became one of the most mobile and globally dispersed North African groups in the twentieth century, with major hubs in Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Spain, Israel, Canada, France, and the US, among others. Drawing on an array of communal sources from across this diaspora, Aviad Moreno explores how narratives of ancestry in Spain, Israel, Morocco, and several Latin American countries interconnected the diaspora, empowering its hubs across the globe throughout the twentieth century and beyond. By investigating these mechanisms of diaspora formation in a small community that once shared the same space in Morocco, Entwined Homelands, Empowered Diasporas challenges national accounts of the broader Jewish diasporas and adds complexity to the annals of multilayered ethnic communities on the move"--
