It’s Not Just Who Stands Under the Chuppah: Intermarriage and Engagement
| Title | It’s Not Just Who Stands Under the Chuppah: Intermarriage and Engagement |
| Author: | Chertok, Fern; Phillips, Benjamin; Saxe, Leonard |
| Description: | Contemporary debates concerning assimilation and continuity in the Jewish community tend to focus on the religious identity of the couple that “stands under the chuppah” to the exclusion of all other factors. Our analysis of multiple sources of data suggest, however, that Jewish socialization in the form of Jewish education, experience of home ritual, and social networks plays a far more important role than having intermarried parents, in determining Jewish identity, behavior, and connections. |
