Contents of this year´s Ignatz Bubis Summer School, June 10th - 14th, 2009

This year’s Ignatz Bubis Summer School will focus on the question of Jewish leadership in the Diaspora communities:

What intellectual resources, skills, and character are demanded from the new generation of Jewish leaders today?

How can and must Jewish identity be reinforced by Jewish learning and Jewish values?

How does Jewish leadership differ in the context of varying national and religious traditions?

How do and should Jewish leaders act as representatives of their community in their broader social context?

These are some of the questions we hope explore at the Ignatz Bubis Summer School
