Judaism As a Civilization: Toward a Reconstruction of American Jewish Life

Mordecai Menahem Kaplan

Judaism as a Civilization remains one of the most original and thought-provoking contributions toward creating a comprehensive program for creative Jewish life. In this seminal work, Kaplan offers his now famous concept of Judaism as an evolving religious civilization. For Judaism to survive and grow, Jews must continue to reconstruct their heritage in response to changes in social, political, and cultural conditions, producing new literature and liturgy, adding and eliminating customs and traditions. All Jews - traditional and liberal, religious and secular - can play a part in that reconstruction.
