Wraps. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. x, 85, [1] pages. tabular Data. The illustrated front cover has wear, soiling and edge tears. This is Institute Of Human Relations Press Pamphlet Series Number 11. This pamphlet is based on material reported in greater detail in "The Lakeville Studies" published in 1967 by Basic Books, Inc., in two volumes: "Jewish Identity on the Suburban Frontier: A Study of Group Survival in the Open Society", by Marshall Sklare and Joseph Greenblum, and "The Edge of Friendliness: A Study of Jewish-Gentile Relations", by Benjamin B. Ringer. Marshall Sklare (1921-1992) was an American sociologist whose work focused on American Jews and the American Jewish Community. Sklare was the Klutznick Family Professor of Contemporary Jewish Studies and Sociology at Brandeis University. Because of his contributions to the social scientific study of Jewry, Sklare is known as the "father of American Jewish sociology". Joseph Greenblum was a longtime educator and research sociologist, Benjamin Ringer was a professor of Sociology at Hunter College, New York. The issue of Jewish identity - to which the American Jewish Committee has devoted a sizable portion of its thought, resources and energies over the past several decades - is one peculiar and unique to our own time. In the closed and pervasively anti-Semitic European societies where most Jews lived in earlier days, it was rare indeed for anyone born into the Jewish fold to question his "group belongingness." One was a Jew not only because one's parents were Jewish, and not only because one was raised in the Jewish faith and nurtured in the Jewish tradition, but also because the hostile Christian world made it abundantly clear to any Jew who contemplated shedding his Judaism that he could expect little welcome and less acceptance. In 20th-century America, however, individual merit and drive have counted more heavily than the lingering prejudices carried over from the Old World. In this relatively benign and welcoming atmosphere, one national and religious group after another has managed to overcome the disabilities of immigrant and minority status. Jews have been particularly successful in transforming themselves - in the brief span of two or three generations - from poor and powerless newcomers into recognized partners and often leaders in the country's intellectual, political and economic life. On the surface, at least, there is little difference between the life styles of American Jews and their non-Jewish neighbors. To a degree unparalleled in modern Jewish history, the American Jew, now of the third and fourth generation, can, if he so chooses, live his life and raise his children without his Jewishness being central to his planning and thinking. In such a setting, as all religious and ethnic minorities have discovered, true belongingness becomes a matter not merely of birth and tradition, but also of conscious and deliberate choice. What is the future of Jewish continuity in such circumstances? How will the rituals, traditions and values that have survived millennia of exclusion and persecution stand up under benign acceptance, and how will they be altered? To what degree does being Jewish continue to connote differences in attitudes, values and life style, and to what degree does it seem to be blending into a general "American" ethos? How do Jews see their relationships with the larger community, and how deep is the acceptance accorded them by their Christian neighbors? These are some of the questions that concerned the American Jewish Committee almost a decade ago, when it launched the wide-ranging investigations reported in the two-volume Lakeville [pseudonym for the real community] Studies. The findings, widely discussed and commented upon since their publication, offer insights important for all students of group life in America, but especially for Jewish professionals and laymen interested in and concerned about Jewish continuity. This condensation of the Lakeville Studies has been prepared to facilitate the widest possible dissemination and discussion of these important findings, as well as to serve as a resource for teachers, secular and religious leaders, and particularly parents, who are dedicated to, and working for, a meaningful Jewish identity in American society.

Zustand: very good, fair. First? Edition. First? Printing. 362, footnotes, notes, index, DJ worn, soiled, and some edge tears/chips. This monograph is Volume I of The Lakeville Studies, and considers the viability of the newer conceptions of Jewishness--whether a pluralistic society is capable of so altering the substance of the group's identity as to threaten the natural continuity between generations. It analyzes the internal life of the Jewish community itself, including the relationship ofJews to their religious heritage, to the synagogue, to Israel, to their organizations, to their fellow Jews, and to their children. The study was sponsored by the American Jewish Committee.…
