ABSTRACT

This essay investigates German Jews’ conceptualization of colonialism, and its consequent meanings regarding their identity formation in the years between 1884 and 1919. The discussion tackles the intersections and disjunctions of identities among German Jews of various orientations, as inspired by the colonial venture and within globalization process. The analysis reveals the interplay between the endorsement of colonialism by Jews as part of their German national identification, and the impact of growing antisemitism and racial attitudes nourished by the encounter with other ‘inferior races’ in the colonies. It explores the ideological parallels that Jews perceived between German and European colonization, and the Zionist settlement in Palestine. The article also demonstrates how Jews’ increasing exposure – real or imagined – to different places and cultures as part of the colonial experience stirred ideas of Jewish racial superiority and distinctive nationalism, alongside transnational perspectives that encouraged a broader sense of Jewish solidarity.

身份改革:犹太人对德国殖民扩张的经历

摘要

本文探讨了德国犹太人对殖民主义的概念化,以及由此产生的关于他们在 1884 年至 1919 年间身份形成的意义。讨论探讨了受殖民冒险和内部影响的不同取向的德国犹太人身份的交叉和分离。全球化进程。分析揭示了犹太人支持殖民主义作为其德国民族认同的一部分,与在殖民地与其他“劣等种族”相遇而滋生的反犹太主义和种族态度日益增长的影响之间的相互作用。它探讨了犹太人在德国和欧洲殖民化以及巴勒斯坦犹太复国主义定居点之间的意识形态相似之处。
