Beschreibung
This book offers an original and unprecedented in-depth analysis of the demography and identity American Jewry. It discusses crucially important issues for the understanding of the contemporary status, with an adequate historical background – which often lacks in much research work. The volume consists of both brand new chapters and partly relies on several scholarly works in the field that were published over the course of more than 40 years have been revised, updated, split and merged so to form newly conceived content.
This text provides a critical and unique approach to the major scholarly trends in American Jewish demography and sociology. It is divided into a number of parts, dealing with population trends, Jewish identification patterns, and yet more specific groups or sub-populations. Each section is preceded by a short introduction. A post-script provides a serious debate about the future of US Jewry and its position and role among World Jewry. This volume appeals to students and researchers working in Jewish Studies.
