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.
