Jewish Political Studies as a Field of Inquiry.

The article features Jewish Political studies as a field of inquiry knowledge. Intellectual concerns and understanding of political matters deserves to be elevated to a prominent position in Jewish studies. It is a matter of recognizing and analyzing the political dimension present in a tradition devoted to the creation of the good commonwealth on earth. An understanding of the influence of Jewish political ideas on Jewish public affairs during the epochs of Jewish national independence and communal self-government can be useful in our efforts to meet the problems of Jewish public affairs and communal organization in the modern voluntary communities of the diaspora.
