Title: Judaism and Collective Life
Authors: Fishman, Aryei
Keywords: Judaism
Issue Date: 2002
Publisher: Routledge
Description: The book takes as its point of departure the historical fact that it was Orthodox pioneers of German origin, in contrast to their Eastern European counterparts, who successfully developed religious kibbutz life. Employing sociological concepts and methods, the author examines the correlations between two evolutionary phases in kibbutz development and two modes of Judaism: the rational Halakhic and the emotive Hasidic modes. In doing this he explores the relationship between these two modes’ diverse dispositions towards the divinity – the transcendent and the immanent – and two diverse manners of the self and their related communities, as well as the functional value of these diverse selves and communities for the larger social system.
