Description
Depicts the landscape of the Jewish world today. States that there is an emergence of a "third partner" between- and independent of- Israel and American Jewry. Since the 1990s, against the backdrop of the collapse of the Soviet bloc, the process of European unification and the deepening crisis in Israel, Jewish intellectuals in Europe have been searching for a new Jewish identity that reflects and emphasizes the continued Jewish existence on European soil
