Parallel to these struggles that revived questions related to Jewish identity, integration-assimilation in France, as well as the contents of the Zionist project, Wieviorka details how the CDJC laid the foundation of French historiography on the subject, particularly the work of talented historians such as Joseph Billig and Leon Poliakov, among others, that had been kept isolated, forlorn and condemned to a sentencious academic silence.Cairn free access
