The fact that the Jewish life was stuck in Europe and the existence of oppression from the official authorities has been reminded them of the importance of the solidarity networks among the Jews. The priority of solidarity and networking in the collective memory resulted into emergence and distribution of written publications which are driven by the Enlightenment movement in Europe.
