N1 - Funding Information:
My work on this chapter was made possible by grants from the College of Arts and Sciences at Florida International University and the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture. I am most grateful to Rochelle Rubinstein, Associate Director of the Central Zionist Archives, and Naomi Niv, who served as my very able research assistant in Jerusalem, for making available to me many of the letters and papers in the Zangwill and ITO files that I have drawn upon in preparing this chapter. Without their generous assistance, this chapter would not have been possible, and I am grateful for the Archives’ permission to publish extracts from materials in its collections.

N2 - The turbulent period from the Boer War to the introduction of the Aliens Act was marked by contradictory imaginings of 'the Jew' - pauper/capitalist, separatist/imposter, ideal colonizer/undesirable immigrant, familiar/alien. This new collection considers the wider colonial context in which these ambivalent attitudes to Jews were produced.
