Jüdische Rundschau - The most widely distributed German-Jewish weekly. Two issues - May 1904, July 1908.

Jüdische Rundschau - A Jewish newspaper in the German language that appeared between 1902 and its closure in 1938 in Berlin - a publication of the German Zionist Association - the most widely circulated Jewish-German weekly. The publisher was Heinrich Leva. The editors-in-chief were, over the years, Julius Becker, Felix Abrahams, Hugo Herman, Leo Herman, Fritz Löwenstein, Hans Klötzel, Robert Welch and Hans Bloch. The Yiddish Rondshaw began to appear in 1902, initially as a weekly and from 1919 twice a week. After Kristallnacht at the end of 1938, the newspaper was forced to cease its activities. Its successor was the "Jüdische Weltrundschau". The newspaper's target audience was the Jewish youth, and its purpose was to bring to its attention the Zionist political platform as expressed in the Basel program (1897). The newspaper reported to its readers all the news from the Jewish world in Germany and abroad. The newspaper bravely fought the phenomenon of anti-Semitism even when it was at its peak in Nazi Germany. Due to this struggle its circulation increased towards the end of the Weimar Republic to close to 40,000 copies.
