Sephardi, Jewish, Argentine - Community and National Identity, 1880-1960

Informationen zum Autor Adriana M. Brodsky Klappentext Rather than assume that Sephardi identity was fixed and unchanging, Brodsky highlights the strategic nature of this identity, constructed both from within the various Sephardi groups and from the outside, and reveals that Jewish identity must be understood as part of the process of becoming Argentine.
