The essays span across a wide range of subjects, from comparisons between Jewish communities from different countries and with different levels of assimilation, the effects of globalization and transnationalism on the field, the interactions between Jews and non-Jews in the area, all the way to literary criticism. Based on an international conference organized by the University of Sao Paulo, the Dahan Center of Bar Ilan University, and the Academic College in Ashkelon, this volume offers a new approach to Latin American Jewish studies: it contributes to demystifying stereotypes and raising awareness of the importance of Latin America in a global context, and it highlights the relevance of the different Jewish communities across the globe in their special relationship to the state of Israel. 606 $aJews$zLatin America$xHistory$y20th century$vCongresses 606 $aJews$zLatin America$xHistory$y21st century$vCongresses 606 $aJews$zLatin America$xIdentity$vCongresses 607 $aLatin America$xEthnic relations$vCongresses 610 $aJews in Latin America. 610 $aLatin Jews. 610 $acomparative religion. 615 0$aJews$xHistory 615 0$aJews$xHistory 615 0$aJews$xIdentity 676 $a980/.004924 702 $aBejarano$b Margalit, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 702 $aHarel$b Yaron, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 702 $aTopel$b Marta Francisca, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 702 $aYosifon$b Margalit, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 712 02$aMerkaz le-tarbut, h?evrah v?e-h?inukh be-moreshet Yahadut Sefarad ?a. sh.
