SoSe 19: The American Jewish Experience in the 20th Century

Kira Alvarez

Comments

The political and social history of the American Jewish community in the twentieth century is complex and colorful, transcends the borders of the United States, and thus leads to large historical perspectives. This course aims to provide an overview of American Jewish history beginning in the late 19th century, and ending at the beginning of the 21st century. Did a distinctly American Jewish experience exist throughout the twentieth century? How was this experience different from and similar to the history of other religious, ethnic, and racial minorities in the U.S.? These questions frame this survey course of the historiography of twentieth-century American Jewry. A number of themes will be covered in the semester including immigration, assimilation and acculturation, Diaspora, cosmopolitanism and nationalism, race, ethnicity, gender, and religion. close
