Overview
Congratulations to Adriana Brodsky and Raanan Rein whose edited volume has been chosen as the winner of the 2013 Latin American Jewish Studies Association Book Prize!
The New Jewish Argentina aims at filling in important lacunae in the existing historiography of Jewish Argentines. Moving away from the political history of the organized community, most articles are devoted to social and cultural history, including unaffiliated Jews, women and gender, criminals, printing presses and book stores. These essays, written by scholars from various countries, consider the tensions between the national and the trans-national and offer a mosaic of identities which is relevant to all interested in Jewish history, Argentine history and students of ethnicity and diaspora. This collection problematizes the existing image of Jewish-Argentines and looks at Jews not just as persecuted ethnics, idealized agricultural workers, or as political actors in Zionist politics.
"This book is a must-read for students and scholars interested in immigration to Latin America, Ethnic History, and Jewish Studies, but its readership could extend to anybody who is interested in this chapter of social and cultural history."
Ariana Huberman, Haverford College
"The New Jewish Argentina invites us to explore aspects of the history and life of Argentine Jews that go beyond the limits of communitarian selfreference. This approach allows overcoming somewhat complacent interpretations and to appreciate the contradictions, conflicts, and complexity of their history. It is a welcome contribution to both the field of Jewish studies and Latin American studies, with a wide range of innovative approaches." Marcos Wasem, Purdue University, Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies
