About this title

Synopsis

Since the advent of modernity, the human condition has been changing and evolving, a process that has accelerated radically in the 21st century. These transformations are revolutionizing Jewish communities throughout the world and posing momentous questions for individual Jews and Jewish leaders alike. While Judaism has undergone many changes in its four thousand years of history, there’s something particularly perplexing about our times, as the rise of the hyper-empowered individual challenges the foundations of every cultural and religious community. Drawing on extensive research and decades of professional practice in the Jewish Community, Spokoiny seeks to answer a key question: How can Jewish communities – and Judaism – thrive in our tumultuous age? While this book focuses on Jewish communities, it offers valuable insights for all those who study identity, belonging, and community in the 21st century.
