American Jewish History: is the official publication of the
American Jewish Historical Society, the oldest national ethnic historical
organization in the United States. The most widely recognized journal in
its field, AJH focuses on every aspect of the American Jewish experience.
Recent issues and articles have featured American Jewish women's history,
Jews in American sports, the Jewish community of South Florida,
anti-semitism and the Civil War, the labor movement, business enterprise,
Zionism, immigrants, and the Holocaust. AJH has been the journal of record
in American Jewish history for 103 years, bringing readers all the
richness and complexity of Jewish life in America through carefully
researched, yet thoroughly accessible articles.
Modern Judaism: Modern Judaism provides a distinctive,
interdisciplinary forum for discussion of the modern Jewish experience
since the Haskalah, the Jewish Enlightenment. Its contributors address
topics pertinent to the understanding of Jewish life today and the forces
that have shaped that experience, including the Zionist movement and the
establishment of the State of Israel, the socio-political role assumed by
literary works of art, and the rise of modern anti-Semitism and its
devasta ting climax in the Holocaust.
