Jewish continuity in America

creative survival in a free society

Abraham J. Karp's Jewish Continuity in America focuses on the three major sources of American Judaism's continuing vitality: the synagogue, the rabbinate, and Jewish religious pluralism. Particularly illuminating is Karp's examination of the coexistence and unity-in-diversity of American religious Jewry's three divisions - Orthodox, Reform and Conservative - and of how this Jewish religious pluralism fits into the larger picture of American religious pluralism.
