博客來Harriet Hartman is currently Professor Emeritus at Rowan University, Glassboro, NJ (USA) and part-time faculty at Hadassah Academic College in Jerusalem, Israel. I am the co-author of 2 previous books on gender among American Jews, Gender and American Jews: Patterns in Work, Education and Family (Harriet Hartman and Moshe Hartman, UPNE/Brandeis University Press, 2009) and Gender Equality and American Jews (Moshe Hartman and Harriet Hartman, SUNY Press, 1996). I have published two other edited books, in addition to my doctoral dissertation which was on a related topic, Women’s Roles in Israeli Society, where I analyzed the effect of immigrating to Israel on family life and gender roles.
As the Marshall Sklare Award honoree (Association of the Social Scientific Study of Jewry) in 2019, my address was on ＂How Gender and Family Still Matter for Contemporary Jewry＂, later published in the journal Contemporary Jewry, June 2020. Since then I have been working on two related books, one on the American Jewish family, and one an edited book on the Jewish family in Comparative Perspective, the current book proposal. I have published many other articles and book chapters related to Jewish families, both American and Israeli, including a chapter on the Jewish Family in the 2016 American Jewish Year Book, which has been widely quoted. I have also presented at many professional conferences on these topics.
Currently I am the editor of Springer’s journal Contemporary Jewry, and prior to that was the editor of the Springer book series Studies of Jews in Society. I currently serve as an advisory board member for the American Jewish Year Book and am on the editorial board of the Shalvi/Hyman Encyclopedia of Jewish Women. I also serve on the executive board of the Association for the Social Scientific Study of Jewry, and previously served as president of the same organization.
