David M. K. Sheinin and David S. Koffman, "Promised Lands North and South: Jewish Canada and Jewish Argentina in Conversation" (Brill, 2024)

Summary

This book puts two of the most significant Jewish Diaspora communities outside of the U.S. into conversation with one another. At times contributor-pairs directly compare unique aspects of two Jewish histories, politics, or cultures. At other times, they juxtapose. Some chapters focus on literature, poetry, theatre, or sport; others on immigration, antisemitism, or health. Taken together, the essays in Promised Lands North and South: Jewish Canada and Jewish Argentina in Conversation (Brill, 2024) offer sparkling insight and new depth on the modern Jewish global experience.
