Omschrijving
Samenvatting:Created in the underground during the winter 1943-1944, the Representative council of French Israelites, the CRIF (which became the Representative council of Jewish Institutions in France in 1972) is the symbol of the unification of the different cultural and political Jewish groups illegally active under German occupation. The history of the birth of this Jewish umbrella organization remains mostly unknown. Based on the files stored at the Holocaust Resource Center in Yad Vashem, Jerusalem, this article focuses on the debates during the first meetings of the CRIF on the issue of Zionism.
