This comprehensive reference work contains historical sketches of over 125 national and local voluntary organizations. The articles are arranged in an A to Z format and provide information on the many philanthropic, religious, political, cultural, and social agencies that are representative of Jewish organizational life in America. An outstanding feature of this volume is the collection of essays by a group of noted scholars on major issues of American Jewish organizational life including Jewish communal responses to the needs of the elderly, the Jewish Federation Movement, the Jewish feminist movement, American Zionism, and the Soviet Jewish movement in the United States. In addition, the editor has included a valuable chronology that juxtaposes significant events in American Jewish history with the founding dates of the organizations; a listing by category and function of the agencies; and an organizational genealogy that lists the name changes and mergers undergone by each group.

This book examines the nature of military ethics education after the Holocaust, using a range of national case studies.The volume examines educational opportunities offered by a range of militaries, including the USA, Australia, Lithuania, Austria and Israel, and addresses substantive and contextual problems for ethical reflection on the basis of Holocaust history. The first half of the work indicates how the particular educational gains sought from courses on the Holocaust and military ethics provide grounds for wider discussions of the normative consequences of engagement with the Holocaust. The chapters in the second half of the book turn to a variety of historical contexts before and during the Holocaust which raise substantive ethical issues: the formation of military professionals; treatment of prisoners; exercise of responsibilities in the face of institutional pressure; the relationship between ethical outcomes and organisational ideology; and the values of rescuers and resisters, including those organising their resistance in divergent Jewish and Christian communities.This volume will be of interest to students of military ethics, peace and conflict studies, defence studies, Holocaust and genocide studies and World War II history.
