Jewish politics examines the condition of Jews in today’s Europe and their relationship to the major issues of the moment: weakened democracy, renewed antisemitism, dilemmas surrounding Israel, and the future of the diaspora. This field reveals a political thought that cannot be reduced to a dogma or a single tradition – and certainly not to Zionism alone – but which draws on the experience of minorities, the concern for justice, and the memory of the continent to confront the current European crisis. Thinking about Jewish politics means opening up a critical, independent space capable of grasping the fractures in our societies and making the complexity of the contemporary Jewish experience legible.
