Congratulations to Adriana Brodsky and Raanan Rein whose edited volume has been chosen as the winner of the 2013 Latin American Jewish Studies Association Book Prize!

The New Jewish Argentina aims at filling in important lacunae in the existing historiography of Jewish Argentines. Moving away from the political history of the organized community, most articles are devoted to social and cultural history, including unaffiliated Jews, women and gender, criminals, printing presses and book stores. These essays, written by scholars from various countries, consider the tensions between the national and the trans-national and offer a mosaic of identities which is relevant to all interested in Jewish history, Argentine history and students of ethnicity and diaspora. This collection problematizes the existing image of Jewish-Argentines and looks at Jews not just as persecuted ethnics, idealized agricultural workers, or as political actors in Zionist politics.

"This book is a must-read for students and scholars interested in immigration to Latin America, Ethnic History, and Jewish Studies, but its readership could extend to anybody who is interested in this chapter of social and cultural history."
Ariana Huberman, Haverford College

Adriana M. Brodsky Ph.D (2004, Duke University) is Associate Professor of History at St. Mary´s College of Maryland. Her work focuses on the construction of the Argentine Jewish community from the perspective of its Sephardi minority, and is currently working on a project on Sephardi Youth in the Zionist movement.

Raanan Rein, Phd.(1991) Tel Aviv University is Professor of Latin America and Spanish History at TAU. He has published more than 20 books and many articles on Argentine History, Spanish History and Jewish experiences in the Spanish speaking world, including Argentine Jews or Jewish Argentines?
