On June 18-20, 2023, POLIN Museum hosted an international academic conference on transnational Jewish networks and identities. Along with my colleagues, I organized the event and it was a huge success. The presenters from all over the world brought together the newest research in a growing research area. And we were honored to have a keynote lecture from Prof. Tara Zahra (University of Chicago), who drew on her new book Against the World: Anti-Globalism and Mass Politics between the World Wars.
In the coming months, my colleague Aleksandra Jakubczak and I will be editing a volume of some of the most cutting edge papers that came out of the conference. Thanks to generous support from EAJS and PNFN, the book will be available open access with De Gruyter.
