Abstract
This volume presents selected papers delivered at a symposium held in October 2018 at York University in Canada on the occasion of Israel’s seventieth anniversary. Several additional and complementary articles were expressly written for this book. The thirteen chapters in this volume discuss contemporary Jewish identity, Israel-diaspora relations, and how Jewish life has been transformed in light of various types of antisemitism. We consider the diasporic Jewish experiences through the prism of the intersections between various Jewish communities sociologically. These themes are explored by drawing upon diverse academic disciplines and scientific approaches.
