📢Out Now in OA: 'The Last Years of , Volume 1: At the Edge of the Abyss: Essays, 1927–33' by Yankev Leshchinsky, ed. by Robert Brym, trans. by Eli Jany and Robert Brym.

-born (1876–1966) was the leading scholarly and journalistic analyst of socioeconomic and political life from the 1920s to the 1950s. Known as “the dean of Jewish sociologists” and [...] “the father of Jewish demography,” published a series of insightful and moving essays in on between 1927 and 1937.

Despite heightened interest in interwar communities in in recent years, these essays have never been translated into English. 'The Last Years of ' helps to rectify this situation by translating some of ’s key essays. A thoughtful Introduction by Robert Brym provides the context of the author’s life and work.
