Abstract:
The present study focuses on immigrant Jews who reside in three cities in Europe: Paris, Brussels and Antwerp. I analyze various dimensions of ethnic identity and identification, such as Jewish identity, transnational (with country of origin) and local (assimilative). The main research questions refer to possible explanations which influence the participants’ ethnic identity and identification, primarily their city of residence and its socio-cultural atmosphere which enables (or not) vivid overt Jewish life.
