American Jewish Identity Politics Hardback
by Deborah Dash Moore
Hardback
Description
This book explores changes among American Jews in their self-understanding during the last half of the twentieth century.
Written by scholars who grew up after World War II and the Holocaust who participated in political struggles in the 1960s and 1970s and who articulated many of the formative concepts of modern Jewish studies, this anthology provides a window into an era of social change.
These men and women are among the leading scholars of Jewish history, society and culture.The volume is organized around contested themes in American Jewish life: the Holocaust and World War II, religious pluralism and authenticity, intermarriage and Jewish continuity.
Thus, it offers one of the few opportunities for students to learn about these debates from participant scholars.
