The book aims to promote greater understanding of social cohesion amidst existing complexities of faith and identity, and what this portends for our future. The emphasis is on the importance of engagement across beliefs and cultures, the different generations and segments of population, and the diverse interests of people in a digital and interconnected world. The policy officials, religious leaders, scholars and society-at-large will be able to better appreciate the search for common ground and harmony, thereby strengthening their endeavours for coexistence.The book seeks to continue the conversations and deliberations at the International Conference on Cohesive Societies (ICCS) held from 19 to 21 June 2019 in Singapore. The three themes of the ICCS — Faith, Identity, Cohesion — stimulated significant discussions on the need for mutual respect, trust and understanding of each other's beliefs and cultures. Many ideas on the ways forward were raised and further discourse is necessary.An unprecedented line-up of academic, civil society, government, intellectual, policy, religious and youth leaders provided a wide array of perspectives on challenging issues faced by diverse societies around the world. The transcripts of the official speeches elucidate the vision of leadership and aspiration looking ahead. The book also features delightful photographs and graphic recordings of the key thrust articulated during the ICCS.

A Place of Our Own

Reform Judaism is not the only religious group in America to make the summer camp experience a vital part of a faith community's effort to impart its values and beliefs to its adolescents, but perhaps no group relied more on summer camp as an adjunct to home and community for this purpose. Summer camp became an important part of Reform group identity, a bulwark against the attraction of assimilation into the greater society and mere nominal Judaism. These seven essays, which commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the first Reform Jewish educational camp in the United States (Olin-Sang-Ruby Union Institute [OSRUI], in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin) cover a wide range of topics related to both the Reform Judaism movement and the development of the Reform Jewish camping system in the United States. Donald M. Splansky's chapter on 'Prayer at Reform Jewish Camps' documents changes in prayer services that took place both at OSRUI and in the Reform movement in general; Michael Zeldin's 'Making the Magic in Reform Jewish Summer Camps' describes the educational philosophies employed at many camps and analyzes their effectiveness; and Jonathan D. Sarna's 'The Crucial Decade in Jewish Camping' explains how social, political, and cultural conditions paved the way for the Reform camping movement.

Lerner, the book provides a detailed analysis of the political, social, and economic factors that led to the rise of fascist movements in various countries, including Italy, Germany, Spain, and Japan.The author traces the roots of fascism to the aftermath of World War I, when many countries were struggling with economic depression and political instability. He explores how fascist leaders exploited these conditions to gain power, using propaganda, violence, and intimidation to suppress opposition and establish authoritarian regimes.Lerner also examines the impact of fascist rule on society, including the persecution of minority groups, the suppression of free speech and press, and the use of concentration camps and other forms of state violence. He discusses the role of international alliances and conflicts in the spread and defeat of fascism, including World War II and the Cold War.The book concludes with an analysis of the legacy of fascism in the modern world, including the ongoing threat of far-right extremism and the importance of vigilance in defending against authoritarianism and totalitarianism.Overall, The March of Evil is a timely and insightful examination of one of the darkest periods in human history, offering valuable lessons for understanding and confronting the dangers of fascism and other forms of extremist ideology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
