Food for Thought
In recent decades, many Russian-speaking Jewish immigrants from the former Soviet Union have settled in Germany and Israel. In "Food for Thought", Julia Bernstein conducts a widely interdisciplinary investigation into the ways in which such immigrants manage their multiple, overlapping identities - as Jews, Russians, and citizens of their newly adopted nations. Focusing in particular on the packaging, sale, and consumption of food, which offers surprising insights into the self-definitions of these immigrants, this book delivers one of our most detailed looks yet at complicated and important aspects of immigration and national identities.
