SUMMARY:New Works Wednesdays with Lior Sternfeld
DESCRIPTION:The ASF Institute of Jewish Experience presents: \nNew Works Wednesdays with Lior Sternfeld \nJoin us for New Works Wednesdays with Associate Professor Lior Sternfeld as he discusses his book “Between Iran and Zion: Jewish Histories of Twentieth-Century Iran.” \nWednesday\, 23 March \n@ 8AM PDT ◊ 11AM EST ◊ 4PM London ◊ 6PM Jerusalem ◊ 7PM Dubai \nAbout the book:\nIran is home to the largest Jewish population in the Middle East\, outside of Israel. At its peak in the twentieth century\, the population numbered around 100\,000; today about 25\,000 Jews live in Iran. “Between Iran and Zion” offers the first history of this vibrant community over the course of the last century\, from the 1905 Constitutional Revolution through the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Over this period\, Iranian Jews grew from a peripheral community into a prominent one that has made clear impacts on daily life in Iran. \nAbout the author:\nLior is an associate professor of history and Jewish Studies. He is a social historian of the modern Middle East with particular interests in the histories of the Jewish people and other minorities of the region. His first book\, titled “Between Iran and Zion: Jewish Histories of Twentieth-Century Iran\,” (Stanford University Press\, 2018) examines\, against the backdrop of Iranian nationalism\, Zionism\, and constitutionalism\, the development and integration of Jewish communities in Iran into the nation-building projects of the last century. He is currently working on two book projects: “The Origins of Third Worldism in the Middle East” and a new study of the Iranian-Jewish Diaspora in the U.S. and Israel. He teaches on the modern Middle East\, Iran\, Jewish histories of the region\, and Israel-Palestine related classes. \nFor more about the book: “Between Iran and Zion: Jewish Histories of Twentieth-Century Iran.” \nSponsorship opportunities available:\ninfo@americansephardi.org
