Abstract

[The First World War saw another change in the evolving association between Jews and Gentiles. Jewish women, predominantly from the middle class, worked alongside their sisters of other faiths to create a highly effective welfare system that benefited Jews and non-Jews while still continuing to assist the empoverished in their own religious communities. Jewish and non-Jewish women worked together in many sectors of society, realizing the importance of work for their dignity and autonomy, as well as witnessing a shift in the traditional structures of family relationships. Jewish and non-Jewish women also shared the unfulfilled hope that the society that would rise from the ashes of war would grant women rights which had been denied them, such as the power to vote.]
