Abstract: In recent years, France has had the largest loss of Jewish population out of any other country through the process of aliyah, or permanent emigration to the state of Israel. The large-scale emigration of French Jews is not only a modern phenomenon, but also one that has origins in the immediate post-Second World War period. The process of aliyah for French Jews in the years following their attempted extermination descends ultimately from one ideological decision: whether one still believed in France’s republican ideals, or if one became disillusioned after the oppression and persecution faced during the Shoah and chose instead to immigrate to Palestine.
