Description

Watershed eventsincluding the second Palestinian uprising in , September , and the Iraq warhave created important new challenges for American Jewry. The introductory essay and interviews with prominent American Jews explore these. Major elements of American Jewrys changing mind-set relate to Israel. Others concern attitudes toward Evangelical Christians and Muslims as well as increased anxiety about anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism. These, mainly political, challenges are superimposed on the structual problems of American Jewry.
