Jewish community seems to have been successful. In the later 1930s and into World War II,
Kaganovich did receive criticism from abroad for his heritage, but Stalin, despite his own
growing anti-Semitism, did not remove Kaganovich or separate himself from him. By the end of
World War II, Kaganovich's power was waning, though he was unaffected during the Doctor's
Plot, about which he did very little, despite the impact it had on the Jewish community. This
only further emphasizes Kaganovich's own separation from his Jewishness. Ultimately, it is
evident that Kaganovich saw his Jewishness as nothing more than a part of his background, not
something that held any relevance to his life or his role in Soviet politics
