A Modern History of Collective Social Boundaries --; Contributors --; Index of Names and Places; restricted access N2 - This study explores the shifting boundaries and identities of historic and contemporary Jewish communities. The contributors assert that, geographically speaking, Jewish people rarely lived in ghettos and have never been confined within the borders of one nation or country. Whereas their places of residence may have remained the same for centuries, the countries and regimes that ruled over them were rarely as constant, and power struggles often led to the creation of new and divisive national borders. Taking a postmodern historical approach, the contributors seek to reexamine Jewish history and Jewish studies through the lens of borders and boundaries UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9789048521494?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789048521494 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789048521494/original ER -
