European-Jewish Studies reflect the interdisciplinary network and competence of the "Centre for Jewish Studies in Berlin-Brandenburg" which was founded in 2011. The Centre gathers together the most important institutions working on Jewish studies in the region - including the relevant universities and establishments in Berlin and Potsdam. The interdisciplinary character of the series places particular emphasis on the way in which history, the humanities and cultural science approach the subject, as well as on fundamental intellectual, political and religious questions that inspire Jewish life and thinking today, and have influenced it in the past. The EDITIONS present new editions of works by outstanding Jewish authors. The CONTRIBUTIONS publish excellent monographs on the entire spectrum of themes from Jewish studies. The CONTROVERSIES deal with fundamental debates that are of contemporary and journalistic relevance.
