Jews at Work

Their Economic Progress in the American Labor Market

Studies of Jews in Society Volume 2 Series Editor Charles Kadushin, Brandeis University New York, NY, USA

Studies of Jews in Society focuses on social scientific studies of Jewry, and takes a broad perspective on “social science”, to include anthropology, communications, demography, economics, education, ethnography, geography, history, politics, population, social psychology, and sociology. Books may rely on quantitative methods, qualitative methods, or both. The series is directed to social scientists and general scholars in Jewish studies as well as those generally interested in religion and ethnicity; academics who teach Jewish studies; undergraduates and graduate students in Jewish studies, sociologists interested in religion and ethnicity; communal professionals and lay leaders who deal with Jewish organizations and individuals. The style, while rigorous scientifically, is accessible to a general audience.
