This collection of essays was compiled in response to the
proliferation of violence throughout the modern world. They
constitute a multi-disciplinary approach to the intersection of
violence with Jewish life and thought. Examined are ancient and
modern examples of violence from the perspectives of Jewish
studies, philosophy, history, psychology and sociology. Topics
include the philosophical and psychological dimensions of violence
and terror in Israel; religious Zionism; an overview of Jewish Law;
religious societies in antiquity; anti-Semitism among American
workers during World War II; British anti-Semitic symbolism;
violence in Canadian Jewish communal life; issues of conscription
in Britain during war time; and spousal abuse. In conclusion, David
Shatz provides a Jewish perspective on the events of 9/11, followed
by an examination of the halakhic response to the problem of evil
by Moshe Sokol.
