New York Jews and the Decline of Urban Ethnicity: 1950-1970

This work covers New York City politics and culture in the 1950s and 1960s and the inner life of one of the city's largest ethnic/religious groups. It explores the decline of secular Jewish ethnic culture, the growth of Jewish religious factions, and the rise of a more assertive ethnocentrism.
