Emancipation
Revision as of 07:23, 27 January 2020 by Gabriele Boccaccini (talk | contribs)
As a consequence of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Age, Jews in Western Europe (and the United States) were "emancipated":
- Citizenship - End of forced segregation (abolishment of the ghettos) - Access to public education (primary schools, State universities, etc.) - Access to State administration
No longer forced to live in segregation, Jews had to decide how to be part of the national States.
