An Entity of Type: ethnic group, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The history of the Jews in Paraguay has been characterised by migration of Jewish people, mainly from European countries, to the South American nation, and has resulted in the Jewish Paraguayan community numbering 1,000 today. Migration began primarily from Europe in the late 19th century, where the first waves of Jewish immigrants to Paraguay came from countries such as France and Italy. This was largely a result of liberal immigration policies after the 1870 Triple Alliance Conflict depleted Paraguay’s population.

dbo:abstract
  • La historia de los judíos en Paraguay comienza con el arribo de los flujos migratorios, principalmente de Europa, a fines del siglo XIX. A principios del siglo XX se establecieron en la ciudad de Asunción las primeras instituciones comunitarias. Durante los años 20, llegaron a Paraguay judíos de Polonia y Ucrania, y en los años 30 llegó una ola de inmigración masiva de unos 20.000 judíos de Alemania. Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, más judíos llegaron al país, como sobrevivientes, pero con el tiempo muchos de ellos optaron por trasladarse a los vecinos Argentina (el hogar de la mayor comunidad judía en América Latina), y Brasil, o hicieron aliá (emigraron) a Israel.​ Actualmente, la comunidad judeoparaguaya está constituida por aproximadamente 1.000 personas, la mayoría de ellas siendo asquenazíes de ascendencia alemana.

  • The history of the Jews in Paraguay has been characterised by migration of Jewish people, mainly from European countries, to the South American nation, and has resulted in the Jewish Paraguayan community numbering 1,000 today. Migration began primarily from Europe in the late 19th century, where the first waves of Jewish immigrants to Paraguay came from countries such as France and Italy. This was largely a result of liberal immigration policies after the 1870 Triple Alliance Conflict depleted Paraguay’s population. During the 1920s, Jews from Poland and Ukraine arrived in Paraguay, and in the 1930s there was a wave of mass immigration of approximately 20,000 Jews from Germany. Jewish immigration to Paraguay increased during World War II, as many sought temporary refuge in the nation before attempting to seek entry into neighbouring countries, such as Argentina and Brazil. Following World War II, Israel and Paraguay opened diplomatic relations in 1949, however in 1970, the Israeli Embassy in Asunción was attacked. This event was largely attributable to the Arab-Israeli conflict, which had a profound impact on the Paraguayan Jewish community. The Jewish community, who mostly reside in the capital Asunción, has ultimately had a significant influence on the Paraguayan community, both culturally and politically. There have been various political disagreements between the Paraguayan Jewish community and Israel, which have affected Paraguayan-Israel relations. In terms of cultural influence, the Jewish Paraguayan community has established various synagogues in Asunción. Furthermore, various literature and films have been created to depict Jewish European immigration to Paraguayan, many of them made since 2005. (en)
