Abstract:
Abstract The expulsion of the Jewish Community from Regensburg (Ratisbon) in 1519 was one of the last and well-known expulsions of Jews from an Imperial City on the brink of the modern era. Little attention has been paid to a lawsuit between the Regensburg City Council and the Jewish Community which was initiated three years before 1519. Both the City Council and the Jewish Community sent specially authorised delegates as attorneys to attend the trial held in front of the Regiment in Innsbruck/Austria. Hans Hirsdorfer, Hansgraf of Regensburg, was usually dispatched to Innsbruck as the Christian representative while Isaak Walch made the journey in order to represent the Jewish Community. Their powers of attorney, along with other sources such as account books, give us deep insights into their scope of action regarding personal as well as juridical matters.

Abstract:
AbstractWhen the State of Greater Lebanon was established in 1920, the Jewish Community Council of Beirut was officially recognized as the central administrative body within Lebanon, and although smaller communities such as Sidon and Tripoli also had their own councils they were consequently made subject to the authority of Beirut. In this context of political overhaul, I argue that some Jewish actors made use “from below” of political opportunities provided by sectarianism “from above”—or national sectarianism—to garner control over all Jewish political structures in Lebanon. But by examining in particular activities in and around the Israelite Community Council in Sidon (al-Majlis al-Milli al-Isra'ili bi-Sayda), I show how and why these attempts to practice new forms of sectarianism were met with resistance, despite connections that tied Lebanon's Jews together administratively in one community.

Abstract:
In the late Middle Ages on the territory of the cathedral city of Augsburg were two Jewish settlements, which were formed in the XII-XIII cent. In High Middle Ages, the administration of the Jewish community was made through the mediation of city, bishop and king. However, in the XIV-XV cent. the main interaction regarding the settlement of the life of the Jewish community took place between the king and the city. At the same time, were formed the main legal acts, which regulated the relations between the local population and the Jewish community, its social status. Augsburg Jews were under the jurisdiction of the king and paid taxes to the state treasury in exchange for security guarantees. Legal regulation of the Jewish population of Augsburg, the resolution of disputes between Christians and Jews was carried out with the participation of the city or a person appointed by the king. The city council tried to take precedence in the tax collection procedure, which was perceived by the king as an encroachment on his authority. Such conflicts were resolved by imposing fines on the city or through the courts. In addition, members of the Jewish community were lenders to both the ruler and the burghers and the city council, which often led to misconduct against Jews by the authorities, including arrests and extortion of debtors, and de facto write-offs of the debts. The change in the Jewish community of Augsburg, as in other German medieval cities, depended on the waves of the plague, which often led to pogroms, organized on baseless accusations of causing the disease, followed by the expulsion of the Jewish population from the city. At the same time, most debtors were given the opportunity not to pay debts to their lenders. Besides, the property of the Jewish community passed into the hands of the emperor and princes. From the XV cent., Augsburg, following the example of other German cities, introduced special markings for the Jewish population.

Abstract:
The article focuses on problems relating to the Jewish community’s origin in medieval Tarnovo, the reasons that provoked the Bulgarian-Jewish conflict from the 1350ies and its aftermaths. The hypothesis that Tarnovo Jews originated from Byzantine and appeared in medieval Bulgarian capital at the end of the 12th century as manufacturers of silk is proposed. The religious clash from the 1350ies is ascribed to the influence exerted by some Talmudic anti-Christian texts on the local Jewish community, to the broken inner status-quo between Christians and Jews after the second marriage of the Bulgarian tsar Ivan Alexander and to the reactions of part of the Christian population against the breach of this status-quo.

Abstract:
AbstractThe situation of the Jews in Breslau in the first half of the 18th century was determined by various interested parties, from the Habsburg emperor as city lord to the council of the city and the monasteries in the suburbs. While the city council had not tolerated Jews in its area since the pogrom of 1453, the monasteries in the suburbs used the economic power of the Jews living there. The Emperor as King of Bohemia was interested in trading with Poland, allowing Polish Jewish merchants to settle in the city. While the emperor allowed Jewish citizens to trade within the city by passing a tax law in 1713, the city council tried to keep the Jews as much as possible away from the market. The situation remained undecided until 1742, when the annexation of Silesia created a new situation in Prussia. A law of 1744 guaranteed the establishment of the Jews in the city and the formation of a community, but the number of Jewish residents permitted in the city was kept very low.

Abstract:
The postwar years brought demographic expansion to Montreal’s Jewish community, including residential mobility into new neighbourhoods. These growing suburban Jewish communities engaged young, English-speaking and mostly American rabbis for their congregations. Not surprisingly, the arrival of several of these Modern Orthodox rabbis at mid-century was not unnoticed by the established, mostly eastern European, members of Montreal’s Rabbinical Council. Typically at this period, many European rabbis were sceptical of their American-trained colleagues’ authenticity, knowledge and capability. Montreal was no exception. Using archival documents, this article examines the tensions in mid-century Montreal between the rabbis of the Yiddish-speaking Vaad Harabbonim and the freshly-minted Modern Orthodox rabbis of the next generation.

Abstract:
Abstract The Appalachian community in the Lower Price Hill (LPH) neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, used community-based participatory principles and methods to develop, implement, and evaluate an on-going initiative to address the high prevalence of diabetes among its residents. Led by the Urban Appalachian Council in partnership with a number of academic and community organizations, the initiative conducted town-hall meetings of LPH residents to identify diabetes-related areas that needed to be addressed and to select an initial pilot intervention. The result was a Community Health Advocate (CHA) program which trained neighborhood residents to canvass households to conduct diabetes risk assessments and provide education on diabetes prevention, schedule follow-up diabetes screenings at a wellness site established by the community, and conduct follow-up telephone calls to ensure wellness site participation. The extensive case-finding effort by the CHAs led to the identification of a substantial number of previously undiagnosed residents as high risk for diabetes. This effort also resulted in the confirmation of the community’s perceptions of other diabetes-related need areas which are being addressed through subsequent interventions. The success and acceptance of the program demonstrates that an Appalachian community can use existing resources to enhance its own capacity to address its health issues.

This is a book review of "STRANGERS IN A STRANGER LAND: How One Country's Jews Fought an Unwinnable War Alongside Nazi Troops…and Survived"; by John B. Simon; Rowman and Littlefield; 2019 (originally published in Finnish as Mahdoton sota, "The Impossible War," by Siltala Publishing, 2017). The review was written for the Jewish Book Council by a Professor Emeritus of English and contains both historical and pedagogical reflections on the educational messages emmerging from the book. This is important not only for memory studies and for identity politics but also when looking deep into the complex issues of socialization and education after the WWII. The book contains a story of the contradictory role of Finland's Jewish community in the wars against the Soviet Union and Germany.

Abstract:
Abstract This article examines the means by which Israel has sought to fulfill the contradictory goals involved with maintaining contacts with emigrants while simultaneously sustaining a national mission that asserts Jews can only achieve fulfilment, security, and self-determination by residing in their own country. It describes three successive approaches by which Israel and the larger global Jewish community have addressed the challenges associated with Israeli emigration. These are condemnation, pragmatic acceptance, and the assent of the Israeli American Council.

Abstract:
No full monograph has yet been devoted to the history of the Jewish community in Dobrzyń nad Wisłą. This paper, whose subject is the almost completely unknown history of Jews from Dobrzyń in the years 1507-1939, stems not only from the author’s own interests, but also from the need to fill the above-mentioned gap. To study the topic, the author used mainly archival sources, which were the legacy of administrative and political authorities. Fragments of source materials are currently kept in the State Archive in Bydgoszcz and the State Archive in Toruń, and the branch in Włocławek. Especially noteworthy sources include: the vital records of Jewish people (1826-1936), the records of the Pomeranian Voivodeship Office in Toruń (1920-1939), the town records of Dobrzyń nad Wisłą (1917 -1937), and the records of the Board of the National Council (1950-1972). In these collections, the largest numbers of documents are extracts from birth records, official correspondence, minutes from the meetings of local authorities, and municipal inspections from the inter-war period. Apart from the above-mentioned archival collections, the author used a wide range of other source materials, for example, collections of maps kept in the Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw and in the District Office in Lipno, as well as very interesting items from private collections. Most of the above-mentioned sources have not yet been published.

Abstract:
The diploma thesis deals with the Jewish Council of Elders in Prague, whose existence is defined in the years 1943-1945. The administrative body, which was formally established by renaming the wartime Jewish Community of Prague in February 1943, was obliged to carry out orders from superior authorities and act as an intermediary between the Nazi leadership and the persecuted Jewish population. Earlier emigration, retraining and care activities were replaced by the liquidation tasks and the management of other activities, which in consequence were to lead to the complete destruction of Jewish life in the occupied Bohemia and Moravia. The diploma thesis focuses on the historical and organizational development of the above-mentioned Jewish council from its inception to liquidation in the post-war period, as well as on the activities of departments and the fates of some employees. The organization is set in the context of the final phase of Jewish persecution, which in the period under review focused mainly on so-called Mischlinge and Jews from mixed marriages, and the Nazi policy of liquidation of Jewish communities and establish of Jewish councils. The thesis is based on the use and comparison of archival sources, periodicals, source editions or memories of contemporary witnesses. The main part of...

Abstract:
This chapter considers Isaac Mayer Wise’s polemics within the Jewish community and his ‘unbridled belligerency’ against its enemies outside. Despite his many interests and exertions, his capacity for action was never exhausted. Missionaries, denigrators of Judaism, those who swerved by however so little from the American principle of separation of Church and State, as well as obvious antisemites, drew instant retaliation from his pen. The occasions on which Wise felt called upon to act thus are too numerous, and the torrent of words too copious, to permit a representative selection of these writings. The instances cited in this chapter came early in his career in Cincinnati, when Wise had not been three years in the city and the Israelite was scarcely established.

Abstract:
This chapter considers Solinger’s experience as a white, Jewish child in mid-twentieth-century Cincinnati, in a culture in which no adult she knew, including the rabbi, ever mentioned the Holocaust. At the same time, these adults, including her “liberal” parents, treated the African American domestic workers in their households as marks and proof of white supremacy. Solinger interrogates the sources and effects of Jewish silence regarding the murder of European Jews, and the 1967 African American rebellion in Cincinnati, and speculates about relationships between these events. Solinger ties this personal, family, community, and global history to her emergence as a historian.

Abstract:
This chapter shows how the battles over the Pittsburgh Platform were being fought over a terrain which other factors were already transforming. Large-scale migration from Eastern Europe had begun. The number of Jews in the United States, estimated at 250,000 in 1880, reached the million mark in 1900, the year of Wise’s death. The acculturated community, speaking English albeit with a German accent, largely middle class, reformed in religion, was outnumbered by one that spoke Yiddish, belonged to the proletariat, and was untouched by Reform Judaism. The processes which Wise saw at work when he arrived in 1846 had to begin over again; but although many of the factors were similar, the answers were not necessarily the same. Incidentally, the presence of a second and larger Jewish community enhanced the importance of New York in American Jewish life and diminished the significance of Cincinnati and other Midwest communities where Wise had held sway.

Abstract:
The final chapter falls into two parts, a survey of developments in the second half of the twentieth century and some final thoughts analysing the key themes of the book as a whole. Social mobility, economic success and residential concentration are notable characteristics of the modern community. Divisions persisted and one of the aims of the Jewish Representative Council was to speak for the diverse range of opinion, from the liberal Sinai Synagogue to the ultra-orthodox Lubavitch supporters. Much is made of the achievement of integration without assimilation and the penetration of the professions is highlighted. The case of Arnold Ziff is cited as a prime example of a major contribution to the economic and social life of Leeds, including benefactions to a range of causes, while retaining a committed Jewish identity.

Abstract:
This chapter explores Jewish autonomy in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. The Jewish community in the early modern period was renowned for its autonomous rights, which formed the framework within which it conducted its affairs. Foreign Jewish observers were impressed by the structure of the Polish Jewish system of autonomy, which was composed of institutions at three levels: the kahal (communal council) which managed the kehilah (individual local community), the va'ad galil (regional council), and the two national councils: the Polish Va'ad Arba Aratsot (Council of Four Lands) and the Lithuanian Va'ad Medinat Lita (Council of the [Jewish] State of Lithuania). These same observers marvelled at the scope of Jewish authority. The Jews judged themselves, taxed themselves, legislated for themselves, administered their own communal affairs, set up supervisory bodies, enjoyed meaningful powers of enforcement, and conducted negotiations and diplomacy.

Abstract:
This chapter details the author's attempts to reach the Council of Torah Sages. In the world of Modern Orthodoxy exemplified by the Rabbinical Council of America, the author has friends, acquaintances, former students, and a modicum of standing, so that the author could accomplish something from within. The leaders of Traditionalist Orthodoxy, marked by greater insularity and profound reservations about higher secular education, are far less accessible to the author. Committed to the authority of da'at torah, or ‘the opinion of the Torah’, the Traditionalist Orthodox Agudath Israel has set up a group of distinguished rabbis (gedolim) empowered to decide issues of both Jewish law and public policy. This Council of Torah Sages (Moetzes Gedolei Hatorah) and its equivalent bodies in Israel hold a position of unparalleled influence in a major segment of Orthodoxy, and the leading authorities in that community command great respect among Modern Orthodox Jews as well. The author sent the rabbis copies of the exchange in Jewish Action, the author's letter to the RCA, and two additional letters commenting on the RCA resolution and the controversy over Rabbi Soloveichik's statements. In the absence of any response, the author had no way of assessing the reaction.

This chapter assesses the Progressive synagogue in Lwów. At the time of the founding of the Progressive synagogue, Lwów had the largest Jewish population of all the cities in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, including Vienna. After the death of the Orthodox rabbi Jacob Ornstein, leadership of the Jewish community was taken over by Progressive Jews, primarily professionals, academics, businessmen, bankers, and industrialists. From then on, the non-Zionists and non-Orthodox held a majority in the kahal, the Jewish communal council. While they served the entire Jewish community, which included a large Orthodox and Yiddish-speaking population, many of these leaders spoke primarily Polish and German. Although culturally Jewish, they were seldom talmudic scholars or noted for their strong religious belief. The Orthodox, however, continued to be represented on the various committees.

Abstract:
This chapter uses Kraków as a case study. It examines Jewish participation in local government in the second half of the nineteenth century. Jews represented over 30 per cent of the town's inhabitants, and the community was overwhelmingly Orthodox. From the early nineteenth century there began to develop a progressive group, interested in modernising ritual and acculturation. By the mid-1860s these two forms of Jewish identity were in sharp conflict. The chapter first explores the legal basis for municipal self-government and its election procedures. It then reviews Jewish participation in municipal elections and changes in political mobilisation and the ideology of the Jews elected to the city council, followed by an analysis of their activities, distinguishing between interventions of general municipal concern and specifically Jewish ones. A point of interest is the presence of municipal officials in the Jewish district of Kazimierz. Finally, the chapter discusses antisemitism in the municipal arena.
