The Jewish Political
Studies Review is the first and only journal
dedicated to the study of Jewish political
institutions and behavior, Jewish political
thought, and Jewish public affairs.
Published by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, the JPSR
appears twice a year in the form of two double
issues, either of a general nature or thematic,
with contributors including outstanding
scholars from the United States, Israel, and
abroad.
During the past forty years, the Jewish
community has become much more conscious of its
political dimension, with political concerns
now among the foremost mobilizers of Jews. In
response, Jewish political studies has emerged
as an acknowledged academic discipline, one
with important implications for the Jewish
people, Israel, and the diaspora Jewish
communities. Courses in Jewish political
studies are now offered at some 25 universities
around the world, and the field has become part
and parcel of the teaching of a new generation
of Jewish communal professionals.
