Modern genetics is recycling 19th-century debates over the biology of race, but as the foreword writer notes, the meaning of 'race' really has more to do with the social ideology of what group is used as the litmus test for race. Sicher (comparative and English literature, Ben-Gurion U. of the Negev, Beer-Sheva) introduces chapters by contributors from the social sciences, history, cultural studies, and literature that apply these debates to such controversial questions as who is a Jew, whether the category is biological or cultural, and the effects of the "ethnicization" of diseases. In the contexts of globalization, multiculturalism, and diaspora, authors discuss topics including the social construction of race, relations between white Jews and African Americans, and Ethiopian Jews in Israel.

Recenzijos

If the reader, after closing this volume, remains uncertain or confused about the fundamental questions related to Jews and race (though not Jews and color), this is because fundamental questions appear to remain unresolved. Overall, the essays do a marvelous job in both illustrating and illuminating this confusion. · Studies in Contemporary Jewry





An excellent text that will be a significant contribution to the study of Jews and race The work approaches the topic from a variety of disciplines and geographic locations, and the breadth is in fact one of its greatest strengths. · Rebecca Alpert, Temple University





This is a very fine book It is a very eclectic collection of essays on a range of related texts and issues, yet the chapters cohere, producing a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts, which is how a collection of essays should be. The subject of the volume is important; and many of the essays are first-rate. All of the chapters are trim and to the point. · Emily Budick, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
