| Following what may be conventionally called the Jewish ethno-cultural model and tracing its performance throughout history, Alexander Militarevâ s book is the first scholarly attempt to apply a synthetic, comprehensive approach to the Jewish phenomenonâ an alternative to the metaphysical and religious onesâ and to evaluate it in a comparative context. In highlighting the unique and disproportionately great Jewish contributions, and the recent Russian Jewish contribution in particular, to human civilization, it poses as its main question: â Why the Jews?â Militarev dedicates his book to the analysis of the Jewish phenomenon, its manifold reasons and consequences. Laying bare the â kitchenâ of scholarly research, Militarev embarks on a scholarly adventure akin to a film-noir who-dunnit, complete with intrigue, the need for stringent self-control, inexorable doubts, and the thrill of the chase after the enigmaâ s solution. |
