Studies in Contemporary Jewry brings together for the first time scholars working in different countries and belonging to different disciplines. Regarding modern Jewish history as a part of the ethnic explosion which has had a momentous impact on 19th- and 20th-century history, the contributors to Volume III address one of the greatest questions of modern Jewish studies: to what extent is modern Jewish history unique, and to what extent have Jews acted in ways similar to those of other minorities?
'The main theme of the third volume of Studies in Contemporary Jewry is potentially extremely rich. This worthy annual ... here moves on from Ostjuden and modern Orthodoxy ... to venture into the multi-facted world of inter-ethnic relations Stephen Beller, Peterhouse, Cambridge. English Historical Review
'This abundance of material poses a formidable task for any reviewer. Once the initial shock has been survived, the next reaction must be wonderment at the liveliness of historical scholarship. Lionel Kochan, L'Eylah
