«Le Talmud et la République» is the historical essay by Frank Eskenazi and Édouard Waintrop, published by B. Grasset in paperback (298 pages, in French).
The book explores the French Jewish community and its possible internal fracture: the Consistoire, the CRIF and the FSJU oscillate between orthodoxy and freedom of expression. It also asks whether these institutions can criticise Israel and analyses the 15% of practising Jews in France to examine the denunciation of religious fanaticism.
Originally published in 1991. Subtitle: «Enquête sur les juifs français à l'heure des renouveaux religieux». Includes bibliographical references and index.
For readers interested in the history of French Judaism, the relationship between religion and the Republic and debates on community institutions.
