Abstract

ABSTRACT During the First World War, Jews interned in Germany struggled to keep kosher. The British government initially funded a kosher food programme for its own interned nationals, but it removed all government monies in late 1915. The British government’s refusal to take responsibility for the proper feeding of its Jewish subjects held as ‘enemy aliens’ was both shaped by and bolstered assumptions that Jews could never be truly British. However, it was also a response to tensions evident within the Anglo-Jewish community about how its members could best demonstrate their good citizenship.
