| | Beyond the Pale: The Campaign against "Cosmopolitans" and the "Doctor's Plot" |
| | The mysterious murder of Solomon Mikhoels in Minsk on January 13, 1948, is an ominous sign. | | | The same year, an increasing number of articles in the press accuse so-called "rootless cosmopolitans" of "demolishing national pride," "harboring anti-patriotic views" and "fawning on the West." More and more the attacks take on an anti-Jewish character, as most of the attacked bear distinctly Jewish names, often given in brackets next to their Russified names. | | | Soviet policy makers, and Stalin in particular, harbor a growing suspicion about the loyalty of Soviet Jews, many of whom have relatives in the United States, now the enemy. |

| | Mikhoels was the most visible of the intellectual Jewish leadership, and a show trial would have cast aspersions on Stalin's rule. | | | Mikhoels' brother Miron Vovsi was Stalin's personal physician. | | | Such claims lead most people to a suggestion that Stalin had him assassinated in Minsk in January of 1948 masking his death as a car crash, and Mikhoels received a state funeral. |

| | The secular Jewish culture epitomized by the Moscow State Yiddish Theater continued to flourish in the late 1930's — although Mikhoels and his second star, Benjamin Zuskin, feared for their lives, and with good reason. | | | Still, he argues, Mikhoels was essentially apolitical — shunning any sort of activism and refusing to join even the actors' union. | | | Mikhoels was accorded a state funeral but, for Soviet Jews, his murder signaled a terror that would last through Stalin's death. |
