  • The Elusive Field of Jewish Latin American Studies
    THE ELUSIVE FIELD OF JEWISH LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES Bernardo Sorj * Published in: Latin American and Caribbean Ethnic Studies, Volume 2, Issue 2 October 2007 , pages 207 - 212 Introduction For a social scientist, Latin American Jewish studies are a minefield. The tendencies toward apologetics, discourses of victimization, and the use of taken-for-granted collective self-representations as analytical tools make it almost impossible to enter it without fright. There are, of course, some valuable individual academic contributions. But most of the scholarly meetings and publications have an ingredient of self- celebration that interferes with the exercise of critical thinking and rigorous conceptual and empirical analysis. These problems are compounded by two factors. The first is the strong multidisciplinary character of Jewish studies in general. This in itself could be an advantage but in practical terms it often becomes a license for non-specialists to invade areas in which they have not mastered the basic tools. The second factor, connected to the fashion of cultural studies, is the sacralization of collective identities and subjective narratives. All too frequently, the appeal to the reader's emotions through the presentation of the author's personal experiences substitutes for the effort to make points on the basis of systematic study. In fact, there are reasons to wonder whether it is possible at all to define Latin American Jewish Studies as a self-sustainable academic field. Most of the scholarly production in Latin American Jewish Studies would more adequately correspond to a field of Latin American Studies on Anti-Semitism. The literature is thin when it comes to other substantive issues like the social dynamics of Jewish communities, their institutions and * Professor of Sociology, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and Director of the Edelstein Center for Social Research ([email protected]).

Social Transformations and the Judicialization of Social Conflict in Latin America The exercise of power, as Michel Crozier taught us, is the ability to control sources of uncertainty and transfer the cost of the unpredictable to other individuals or social groups. The revolution in modern law imposed a state of universal legal uncertainty on social groups, including the elite. In other words, before the law every person was equal and could expect similar punishment. This meant establishing a system for meting out justice that was immune to the transfer of economic or political power

Chapter IV State, Nation and Politics at the Dawn of the 21st Century 1. Introduction: State and society, a prismatic relationship Th e gulf between the state and much of society has led to confl icting interpretations of their respective roles in Latin American history. For some observers, the state has been the vehicle for order and progress in amorphous societies fragmented by particularistic interests. Others, in contrast, regard the state as a source of patrimonialism and an obstacle to the autonomous development of society and the public space. Dichotomies rely intrinsically on oversimplifi cation and these confl icting interpretations of the past refer to rural, elitist societies that have little in common with contemporary urban, mass societies.

Global Zionist movements and the State of Israel interpellate their Brazilian and Jewish Diasporic identities, and the process of migration (aliyah) is rooted in diverse motivations, that are fur- ther challenged by the political situation in Israel/Palestine. The characteristics of the Jewish Diaspora and of citizenship accession in Israel allow for different ways of looking at contemporary migrations and circulations of people, as well as the way that national and cultural identifications are negotiated between subjects, social context, and the state.

Most Jews in the world continue to live in the Diaspora, with no plans to emigrate to the Israeli homeland despite Zionist encouragement to do so. The majority of Jews in South America live in Argentina, Brazil and Chile, while smaller Jewish communities can be found in Uruguay, Colombia and Venezuela.3 A variety of Jewish institutions have been founded in these countries, with the mission to represent the Jews, defend their interests, provide social and religious environments and channel their fears and expectations.
