Title
Les Juifs hassidiques de Montréal
Abstract
Hassidic Jews live in the central neighborhoods of Montreal, but for whom very little information about their beliefs and lives circulates. This book portrays a portrait of this population and its sub-communities, while addressing the controversial issue of the schooling of young Hassidim and the fairly frequent tensions that arise recurrently in certain neighborhoods, especially Outremont, between Hassidim and their non-Jewish neighbours. The book also portrays the sustained, but not very visible, relationship between Hasidic Jews and their immediate urban environment, particularly in economic, social and institutional terms.
