Titled, in translation "Our Jews: The Jewish Question with us: A Collection of Public Workers' Opinions," this volume, edited by two Yugoslav journalists, Mića Dimitrijević and Vojislav Stojanović, contained more than 20 papers by a diverse selection of Yugoslav lawyers, journalists and writers. They engaged with ongoing public debates about the "Jewish Question" in Yugoslavia and strongly opposed rising antisemitism in the country. Colored pencil underlines and markings within. OCLC locates six copies.At the time, as in other parts of Europe, antisemitism was gaining ground in Yugoslavia. The government had begun to implement anti-Jewish legislation that would adversely impact the country's 75,000-strong Jewish population, some of whom were refugees from Germany, Czechoslovakia and Austria. One new law banned wholesale enterprises owned or co-owned by Jews, while another introduced a quota system for Jewish students in schools.
