Melton: A Jewish State: Examining the Identities of Jewish Israelis
view options This course seeks to uncover the diverse and complex faces of Jewish Israeli identity. We begin with a historic overview of the early Zionist vision, the emergence of the New Jew, and the institutions that shaped the country, providing insights into how Israeli society today reflects the dreams, aspirations, and endeavors of those who settled the Land of Israel. We then explore important themes, including the evolving religious landscape, the intricate relationship of politics and religion, the interplay of the Mizrachi and Ashkenazi Jews, the dynamic between Israel and World Jewry, and Jewish Renaissance agents in Israel.A Melton E-book is included with the course.
