Models of Separation from within Jewish law
31/05
Meeting
Are the claims of state law and of religion competing or compatible? This longstanding question has resurfaced with the de-centering of the state as the exclusive source of law in the era of globalization, as well as the rise of political religion across the globe. Law Professor Suzanne L. Stone (Cardozo School of Law, YU) examines the contribution of Jewish law and legal doctrines to these debates and the implications of these doctrines both for halakha and for constructing a modern Jewish identity.
