Present Trends Discontinued
Bethamie Horowitz was a leader of the social–psychological turn in the social scientific study of American Jewry. The 1990s were ripe for such a turn. Structural stability enabled analysts to assume “present trends continued.” Today, unsettled times are drawing attention back to the macro-level structural forces shaping the contexts in which Jews live

Commentary on William Korey’s “the ‘Right to Leave’ for Soviet Jews
The first article in the first issue of what was then called Soviet Jewish Affairs was not about Jews in the Soviet Union, per se, but about Jews getting out of the Soviet Union. William Korey’s “T
Ritualized Protest and Redemptive Politics
The significance of the worldwide movement to free Soviet Jewry cannot be measured solely by its success in achieving its goals vis-a-vis Soviet Jews. It was also influential in shaping American Jewish political culture during the years it was active. During the 1960s and 1970s, and to a lesser extent in the 1980s, activists in the American movement to free Soviet Jewry helped construct a public political culture that defined Jewish participation…

J ews in the U nited S tates
Estimated between 5.4 and 6.7 million people, the Jewish population of the United States is the world's largest outside of Israel. The population has grown and diversified through successive waves of immigration, largely from Europe, but increasingly from the Middle East and Latin America. Jewish Americans have organized themselves to create an extensive network of synagogues, philanthropies, policy organizations, and nonprofit agencies in order …
Choice and Obligation in Post-normative Jewish Families
Historical Perspectives on Diaspora Homeland Tourism
Homeland tourism is a powerful medium of diasporic education. Yet, efforts to understand the enterprise are hampered by neglect of the field's history. This article contributes to the historiography of diaspora homeland tourism by examining the emergence of American Jewish educational tours of Israel in the 1950s and 1960s. Archival research and oral histories reveal that the early programs were not merely homeland oriented, but also organization…

Response to Steven M. Cohen’s Marshall Sklare Award Address
Beyond the Field Trip
A course in the sociology of tourism offers an opportunity to examine a world-transforming force that is penetrating more and more aspects of social life. It also offers an opportunity to create a learning environment that uses the object of study as the medium of study. This article examines how instructors can use tourism to teach the sociology of tourism, and thereby help students develop an understanding of the subject matter through reflexiv…
From Shrine to Forum
Zionist collective memory has long associated Masada with the struggle to secure Jewish sovereignty over the land of Israel. This article examines the effects of the political upheavals of the Oslo and post-Oslo periods on the meanings ascribed to Masada. It documents the popularity of a critical counter-narrative in tour guides’ presentations of Masada to diaspora Jewish tourists. Directly informed by memories of the Rabin assassination, this cr…
Tourism, Ethnic Diversity and the City
Reconceptualizing Religious Change
Drawing upon data from the NJPS 2000–1, we argue that traditional approaches to the study of religious mobility — both apostasy and switching — are increasingly problematic. Apostasy from ethno-religious communities, in particular, must be reformulated to incorporate an ethnic dimension. Analyses using this revised concept of “ethno-apostasy” lead to results that at times diverge from those of previous research. The findings suggest that the prem…
