Abstract:
Describes the "Louis Jacobs affair" which began ca. 1956 amongst Orthodox Jews and rabbis in London, and became a heated debate between Jewish congregations which wanted modernization (who supported Rabbi Louis Jacobs' views) and those which wanted more traditionalism (more stringent Orthodoxy). The latter won out, and a wide division subsequently developed between Jewish congregations.
