STATISTICS
According to the 1959 census the population of the USSR was 208.828.000.Of this 2.268.000 were Jews.In USSR the Jews make up 11 per cent of all scientific workers; 10,4 per
cent jurists (procurators, judges, lawyers); 14,7 per cent of all Soviet doctors; 8,5 per cent writers and journalists; 7 per cent art workers (actors, artists, musicians, sculptors).
Jewish population of the USSR constitutes 1,1 per cent of the country’s population. Is it possible to speak of discrimination against the Jews under such circumstances?
