Abstract

The disintegration of Soviet Union was one of the most important event in world history. The break-up of the Soviet Union was perhaps the most important event to shake the Jewish world since the creation of the State of Israel, and has dramatically shaped Israel’s demography, politics and culture. The Great Aliya, in 1990s saw over a million Russian-speaking migrants came into Israel, boosting the Jewish state’s population by over 20%.Aliyah is a Hebrew word is used to refer to Jewish migration to Israel, literally meaning an ‘ascent’ to a higher place (superior place). Aliyah is one of the most basic tenets of Zionism. Through Aliya more than 3 million Jews came to Israel after its formation in 1948.
