A World in Flux: Jewish Journalism Struggles to Survive / Shalom Hartman Institute / 2018 A WORLD IN FLUX JEWISH JOURNALISM Around the World JEWISH JOURNALISM STRUGGLES TO SURVIVE Jewish media outside North America reflect the countries and communities in which they work. With few exceptions, they face existential struggles. They wish for and need more resources, influence, and contact with Israel and North America. ALAN D.

[email protected] The Shalom Hartman Institute is a pluralistic center of research and education deepening and elevating the quality of Jewish life in Israel and around the world. Through our work, we are redefining the conversation about Judaism in modernity, religious pluralism, Israeli democracy, Israel and world Jewry, and the relationship with other faith communities. The Hartman Institute's work focuses on five “pillars”: • Judaism and Modernity • Religious Pluralism • Jewish and Democratic Israel • Jewish Peoplehood • Judaism and the World hartman.org.il - 1 - A World in Flux: Jewish Journalism Struggles to Survive / Shalom Hartman Institute / 2018 Acknowledgements This research report could not have been completed without the support of many colleagues, friends, and family. The authors would like to thank past and present leadership of the Shalom Hartman Institute, led by its President, Rabbi Dr. Donniel Hartman, for their ongoing encouragement of this and earlier research. Present leadership that has supported this project includes Shiri Mersel, Mick Weinstein, and Yehuda Kurtzer. Laura Gilinski and Hana Gilat, who left the Institute in 2017, were helpful and supportive in the project's opening days. Of course, this study could not have been completed or even attempted without the willing participation of more than 50 journalists across Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. We are grateful for their help and admire the way they persist in their important and underappreciated work, often in difficult conditions. We especially want to thank the individuals who allowed us to conduct extensive interviews with them by telephone. Not everyone wished to have their name included, but those who can be named are. Ianai Silberstein deserves added special acknowledgement for translating our survey into Spanish. The answers and comments we received from Latin America and Spain from Spanish-speaking journalists enriched the final report. Marshall Weiss, publisher of the Dayton Jewish Chronicle, and others at the American Jewish Press Association have been supportive of our research into the field of Jewish media for the last five years, and we look forward to further cooperation in the future. Alan would like to add special thanks to Max Moser for his dedication to this project throughout his year at the Hartman Institute as a special research associate. A great deal of this project, from the conceptualizing of the questionnaire, to follow-up interviews, to data analysis, and writing belong to him. It would have been impossible without him. Alan D.

But their challenges are fierce, and they need help and support. They need to know that their efforts are important, that the rest of the Jewish world is paying attention to them, and that they are part of the larger Jewish world, including Israel. The number of Jewish media entities worldwide has shrunk by more than two-thirds in the past century, with Europe the hardest-hit. These results reflect the concentration of Jewish population worldwide in Israel and North America, which together account for fully 83 percent of the world's Jews. 1 Despite the decline in Jewish life and Jewish media in the Diaspora outside North America, Jewish media journalists worldwide are close cousins. Our research found significant similarities in their demographic, educational, professional, and Jewish affiliations. 2 Diaspora Jewish media outside North America believe that their role is to support their communities and Israel, and not be critical of them, while American Jewish media hew closely to Western norms of detached observers eager to uncover problems. 3 The journalists in the current survey feel deeply connected to Israel. They have visited Israel more often than their North American cousins, are unwilling to report critically on Israel, and rate Israel's meaning and centrality to the Jewish people more highly than Americans do. 4 Jewish journalists outside North America put on a brave front, but our survey data tell a different story. Other than in English-speaking countries, Diaspora Jewish journalists are cataloguing the slow but inevitable decline of their communities, while facing rising anti-Semitism at home. 5 - 4 - A World in Flux: Jewish

DEAD SEA SCROLLS While the Dead Sea Scrolls are generally associated with Qumran, properly they also cover discoveries from approximately a dozen other sites in the desert wilderness surrounding the Dead Sea, such as those at Naal ever, Murabbaat, and Masada. The approximately 930 MSS from Qumran were penned from the 3rd c. BC through the 1st c. AD. The Masada texts include Jewish scrolls from the time leading up to the Roman conquest (AD 73) and subsequent Roman documents. The finds at Naal ever and Murabbaat include documents from the time of the Bar Kokhba revolt (AD 132–135). Other Bar Kokhba era documents are known from Ketef Jericho, Wadi Sdeir, Naal Mishmar, and Naal eelim (see DJD 38). For a full accounting, see the lists by Tov under “Bibliography” below.

In Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and a few other countries, official figures are obtainable. In the main, however, the num- bers given are based upon estimates repeated and added to by one statistical authority after another. For the statistics given below various authorities have been consulted, among them the " Statesman's Year Book" for 1910, the English " Jewish Year Book " for 5670-71, " The Jewish Ency- clopedia," Jildische Statistik, and the Alliance Israelite Uni- verselle reports. THE UNITED STATES ESTIMATES As the census of the United States has, in accordance with the spirit of American institutions, taken no heed of the religious convictions of American citizens, whether native-born or natural- ized, all statements concerning the number of Jews living in this country are based upon estimates. The Jewish population was estimated— In 1818 by Mordecai M. Noah at 3,000 In 1824 by Solomon Etting at 6,000 In 1826 by Isaac C. Harby at 6,000 In 1840 by the American Almanac at 15,000 In 1848 by M.

  • Orthodoxy in American Jewish Life1
    ORTHODOXY IN AMERICAN JEWISH LIFE1 by CHARLES S. LIEBMAN INTRODUCTION • DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF ORTHODOXY • EARLY ORTHODOX COMMUNITY • UNCOMMITTED ORTHODOX • COM- MITTED ORTHODOX • MODERN ORTHODOX • SECTARIANS • LEAD- ERSHIP • DIRECTIONS AND TENDENCIES • APPENDLX: YESHIVOT PROVIDING INTENSIVE TALMUDIC STUDY A HIS ESSAY is an effort to describe the communal aspects and institutional forms of Orthodox Judaism in the United States. For the most part, it ignores the doctrines, faith, and practices of Orthodox Jews, and barely touches upon synagogue hie, which is the most meaningful expression of American Orthodoxy. It is hoped that the reader will find here some appreciation of the vitality of American Orthodoxy. Earlier predictions of the demise of 11 am indebted to many people who assisted me in making this essay possible. More than 40, active in a variety of Orthodox organizations, gave freely of their time for extended discussions and interviews and many lay leaders and rabbis throughout the United States responded to a mail questionnaire. A number of people read a draft of this paper. I would be remiss if I did not mention a few by name, at the same time exonerating them of any responsibility for errors of fact or for my own judgments and interpretations. The section on modern Orthodoxy was read by Rabbi Emanuel Rackman. The sections beginning with the sectarian Orthodox to the conclusion of the paper were read by Rabbi Nathan Bulman. Criticism and comments on the entire paper were forthcoming from Rabbi Aaron Lichtenstein, Dr. Marshall Ski are, and Victor Geller, without whose assistance the section on the number of Orthodox Jews could not have been written.

  • Israel, Palestine, and the Olso Accords
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 23, Issue 1 1999 Article 4 Israel, Palestine, and the Olso Accords JillAllison Weiner∗ ∗ Copyright c 1999 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Israel, Palestine, and the Olso Accords JillAllison Weiner Abstract This Comment addresses the Middle East peace process, focusing upon the relationship be- tween Israel and Palestine. Part I discusses the background of the land that today comprises the State of Israel and its territories. This Part summarizes the various accords and peace treaties signed by Israel, the Palestinians, and the other surrounding Arab Nations. Part II reviews com- mentary regarding peace in the Middle East by those who believe Israel needs to surrender more land and by those who feel that Palestine already has received too much. Part II examines the conflict over the permanent status negotiations, such as the status of the territories. Part III argues that all the parties need to abide by the conditions and goals set forth in the Oslo Accords before they can realistically begin the permanent status negotiations. Finally, this Comment concludes that in order to achieve peace, both sides will need to compromise, with Israel allowing an inde- pendent Palestinian State and Palestine amending its charter and ending the call for the destruction of Israel, though the circumstances do not bode well for peace in the Middle East. ISRAEL, PALESTINE, AND THE OSLO ACCORDS fillAllison Weiner* INTRODUCTION Israel's' history has always been marked by a juxtaposition between two peoples-the Israelis and the Palestinians 2-each believing that the land is rightfully theirs according to their reli- gion' and history.4 In 1897, Theodore Herzl5 wrote DerJeden- * J.D.

  • Culture-Sensitive Counselling, Psychotherapy and Support Groups in the Orthodox-Jewish Community: How They Work and How They Are Experienced
    1 International Journal of Social Psychiatry, 50, 227-240. Culture-sensitive counselling, psychotherapy and support groups in the orthodox-Jewish community: How they work and how they are experienced. Kate Miriam Loewenthal and Marian Brooke Rogers Psychology Department Royal Holloway University of London Egham Surrey TW20 0EX 01784 443601 [email protected] 2 Culture-sensitive counselling, psychotherapy and support groups in the orthodox-Jewish community: How they work and how they are experienced. Abstract Background: There is political and scientific goodwill towards the provision of culture-sensitive support, but as yet little knowledge about how such support works and what are it strengths and difficulties in practice. Aims: To study groups offering culture-sensitive psychological and other support to the strictly- orthodox Jewish community in London. Methods: Semi-structured interviews with service providers, potential and actual users from the community, and professionals serving the community. Interviews asked about the aims, functioning and achievements of 10 support groups. Results: Thematic analysis identified seven important themes: admiration for the work of the groups; appreciation of the benefits of culture-sensitive services; concerns over confidentiality and stigma; concerns over finance and fundraising; concerns about professionalism; the importance of liaison with rabbinic authorities; need for better dissemination of information. Conclusions: The strengths and difficulties of providing culture-sensitive services in one community were identified. Areas for attention include vigilance regarding confidentiality, improvements in disseminating information, improvements in the reliability of funding, and attention to systematic needs assessment, and to the examination of efficacy of these forms of service provision. 3 Culture-sensitive counselling, psychotherapy and support groups in the orthodox-Jewish community: How they work and how they are experienced.

  • Milwaukee's Jews and the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle Steve Byers, UW-Milwaukee
    Chronicling a Community: Milwaukee's Jews and the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle Steve Byers, UW-Milwaukee The year was 1921. Milwaukee and the United States were coming out of what would be called World War I into a decade of relative prosperity. But it was also a time of distress for some newer Americans because the World War had fostered a rise in nativism that had some of this nation's ethnic communities on edge.1 To Milwaukee's Jewish community, it was the end of a period that had found that group almost tripling in size from an estimated 7,000 in 1907 to around 22,000 in 1922, with most of the growth coming from immigration, largely from Eastern Europe, according to historians Louis J. Swichkow and Lloyd P. Gartner. Despite the heavy immigration, a sizable number of Milwaukee Jews at that time were able to speak English.2 That sizable Jewish population speaking English becomes important because two men came into this community to establish Milwaukee's first English-language Jewish newspaper.3 The two, Nathan J. Gould and Irving G. Rhodes, had published Jewish newspapers in other Midwestern cities and dreamed of a chain of Jewish newspapers throughout the Midwest. On December 16, 1921, the pair started the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle, a weekly publication that continues today. They produced a newspaper that was considered distinguished and solid. It also became successful enough that they abandoned plans for other publications and centered their attention on Milwaukee and the Chronicle.4 Despite the importance of ethnic newspaper editors and publishers,5 there has been surprisingly little written about the Chronicle or Gould and Rhodes.

This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.
