Download or read book Memory, Oblivion, and Jewish Culture in Latin America written by Marjorie Agosín and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-08-17 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America has been a refuge for Jews fleeing persecution from 1492, when Sepharad Jews were expelled from Spain, until well into the twentieth century, when European Jews sought sanctuary there from the horrors of the Nazi Holocaust. Vibrant Jewish communities have deep roots in countries such as Argentina, Mexico, Guatemala, and Chile—though members of these communities have at times experienced the pain of being "the other," ostracized by Christian society and even tortured by military governments. While commonalities of religion and culture link these communities across time and national boundaries, the Jewish experience in Latin America is irreducible to a single perspective. Only a multitude of voices can express it. This anthology gathers fifteen essays by historians, creative writers, artists, literary scholars, anthropologists, and social scientists who collectively tell the story of Jewish life in Latin America. Some of the pieces are personal tales of exile and survival; some explore Jewish humor and its role in amalgamating histories of past and present; and others look at serious episodes of political persecution and military dictatorship. As a whole, these challenging essays ask what Jewish identity is in Latin America and how it changes throughout history. They leave us to ponder the tantalizing question: Does being Jewish in the Americas speak to a transitory history or a more permanent one?

Book excerpt: First published in 1996. Although some Jews tend to look on the United States as a great twentieth- century haven and on Israel as their ancestral home, tens of thousands of Jewish migrants and refugees escaped to Latin America at three pivotal historical moments—after the late fifteenth-century expulsion of the Jews from the Iberian kingdoms, during the late nineteenth-century crisis of pogroms and famine in Eastern Europe, and at the time of the Holocaust. This multidisciplinary collection of articles explores many elements of the Jewish diaspora in Latin America and the ways in which Jews have shaped and been shaped by Latin American societies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1970s, the Latin American Jewish Diaspora has been recognized as a unique phenomenon in diasporic studies, due to the development of new ways of thinking about internationalism and globalization. Important works of the 1980s and 1990s established the critical role of Jews in Latin America. This collection moves the field forward by providing an interdisciplinary and comparative view of Jewish experiences through history, literature, painting, anthropology, poetry, sociology, and politics. The contributors have been impacted and shaped by their own or their families memories of the Holocaust and the lived horrors of anti-Semitism in Latin America. The goal of the collection, each chapter in its own medium, is to explore and celebrate what it means to have and live memories of an individual and a collective Jewishness, and to uncover and recover the historical fragments of the Jewish experience in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edy Kaufman, Department of International Relations, Hebrew University of Jerusalem; Yoram Shapiro, Latin American Studies Department, Hebrew University of Jerusalem; Joe] Barromi, Director, UN Department of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, Israel Interaction with Latin America has held varying degrees of importance in Israel's foreign relations. This study aims to present a comprehensive analysis of the patterns of continuity and change in Israel's relations with Latin America over a twenty-five year period, from the creation of the state to the 1973 October War, The authors provide a factual survey of major developments in Israeli-Latin American relations since 1948 -- and evaluate the attitudes of Latin American decision makers toward Israel. This latter evaluation is accomplished by studying patterns of behavior, grouping nations according to levels of support for Israel, and analyzing the influence of different variables on the policymaking process both for each of the states involved and their interaction. The work is divided into two basic units: background inputs and analysis of international and state relations. This division is utilized as the basis for the outputs of data and analysis on a multilateral as well as bilateral level, culminating in a detailed analysis of Latin American voting in the United Nations General Assembly. Quite distinctive in subject and perspective. It is timely in its relevance to the Middle East conflict and the recent bid by Latin American Jead-ers for greater influence in Third World politics. I consider it a valuable addition to the literature. John J. Bailey, Associate Professor of Government, Georgetown University This book fills a majorgap in the study of Israel's foreign relations. It has thefurther merit of exploring a very large topic, both in time and space, within a structured systematic framework of analysis. The book is highly informative and stimulating.
