| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Recently, scholars have identified the existence of a distinct Israeli diaspora, as a group separate from the wider Jewish diaspora. The article presents quantitative data collected in Australia that supports this perception. The distinctiveness of Ausraelis ‒ the Israeli diaspora in Australia ‒ is manifested in detachment from Australian Jewry; the preservation of Israeli national identity; and an affiliative model of ties with the ‘real’ homeland, Israel, as opposed to an affiliative interaction of the Jewish diaspora with Israel, the ‘virtual’ homeland. |
