In the light of the Israeli government's plan to halt Ethiopian immigration, this book provides original research into the transformation of the Falashas to Ethiopian Jews during the twentieth century which made them eligible for immigration into Israel, adding a new dimension to the question of 'Who is a Jew', namely the case of the 'manufactured Jew'.
Daniel P. Summerfield obtained his first degree from University College London and then went on to study for his PhD at the School of African and Oriental Studies, University of London. He is currently working in the field of corporate governance and publishes widely on the subject. He still maintains a strong interest in the subject of this book.
