About this ebook
English summary: Traditionally, Jewishness is inherited through the mother. Yet, why do many, mostly secular Jewish men from the former Soviet Union not only view the Jewish background but also the Jewish ancestry of their partners as absolutely important? On the basis of her study on the partner selection of these men, the author describes this migrant group, found throughout German lands, whose networks are held together by common valuation of certain social traits. The heart of this work is concerned with the boundaries of inclusion and exclusion of these Russian-Jewish-German networks, and the processes by which those boundaries are maintained. German description: Das Judentum vererbt sich uber die Mutter. Doch warum ist vielen, meist sakularen Juden aus der ehemaligen Sowjetunion nicht nur die Herkunft, sondern auch die judische Abstammung ihrer Partnerin so ausgesprochen wichtig? Die Autorin beschreibt, ausgehend von ihrer Studie uber die Partnerinnenwahl dieser Manner, das deutschlandweite, vom sozialen Kapital zusammengehalte Netzwerk dieser Migrantengruppe. Im Mittelpunkt der Arbeit stehen die Grenzverlaufe sowie die Ein- und Ausgrenzungsprozesse des russisch-judisch-deutschen Netzwerks.
