Challenging the Limits of Social Integration: Gender and Jewish Contemporary History

The following essay is an invitation to integrate Gender historiography from Europe and the United States to Jewish historiography in Latin America. Is a reflexion on what we get by broadening the limits that have been built upon the understanding of the Jewish communities, and an effort to find what has been said from a gender perspective in Latin American Jewish historiography. Finally, it hopes to be a tribute to the works of the historian Paula Hyman, who built the foundations to include gender and women into contemporary Jewish historiography.
