Synopsis
Being Jewish and Doing Justice (part of the Parkes / Wiener Series published by Vallentine Mitchell) expands the standard concept of Jewish Studies. The prologue offers a novel reading of the idea of 'the people of God', placing the people firmly 'in the world'. The rest of the book, in this spirit, brings argument to bear on a broad range of contemporary moral and political controversies, many of them turning on puzzles about identity. The scope of the book exends from Judaism, Zionism and anti-Semitism to the language of race, the status of animals and the rights of the child. Drawing on his training as an academic philosopher, his Jewish education and his personal experience, Klug confronts uncomfortable questions with rigour, candour and humour. And while the chapters are not a series of steps in an overall argument, collectively they develop the title theme: the inner connection between being Jewish and doing justice.
