It first focuses on education and training as key "gatekeepers" to roles in the economy, and then on the gender differences in labor force behavior and occupational attainment. To place American Jews in perspective, they are compared to the wider American population, and to Israeli Jews, presenting a multi-dimensional analysis of American Jewishness in the 1990s. The difficulties of comparing Israel and American Jews are discussed, lending insights into the similarities and differences between the two cultures. The authors draw on a solid base of sociological literature, placing American Jews in the wider American context with comparative data. The book discusses the conclusions that can be drawn from the analysis along with some policy implications. 606 $aJews$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aSex role$zUnited States 606 $aSexual division of labor$zUnited States 615 0$aJews$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aSex role 615 0$aSexual division of labor 676 $a305.892/4073 700 $aHartman$b Moshe$f1936-$01807580 701 $aHartman$b Hariet$01206241 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974454303321 996 $aGender equality and American Jews$94357393 997 $aUNINA
