The Jews have been an urban people par excellence and their influence on the urban landscape is unmistakable. Who can imagine modern Vienna Berlin Warsaw or New York to name just a few examples without their large vibrant and creative Jewish populations? Conversely the urban experience has been a decisive factor in modern Jewish history. Like others in the series this book presents current scholarship in the form of a symposium essays and book reviews by distinguished experts in Jewish studies from around the world. Published annually by the Avraham Harman Institute of Contemporary Jewry at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Studies in Contemporary Jewry continues to be an invaluable resource for scholars of modern history and culture.
