Jewish Role in American Life: An Annual Review

The Casden Institute at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, supports research that aims to spur dialogue and achieve greater understanding not only about what it means to be Jewish in America, but what it means to be American in a pluralistic society. What can we learn from the historical and contemporary impact of Jews on American life? How have Jews interacted with other ethnic and religious groups? How has Jewish identity changed? What has the cultural expression of those changes been? Such inquiries can lead to a new appreciation for what it means to be Jewish, to be American, and to interact with people of other cultures. Our goal is to shed light, not heat, on topics of relevance and interest.

Series Editor: Steven J. Ross, director of the Casden Institute for the Study of the Jewish Role in American Life
