Description: In The World of the Yeshiva, the sociologist William B. Helmreich provides a history of the yeshiva movement in the United States and an analysis of the relationship between this institution and the resurgence of Orthodoxy. Helmreichâs volume is an informative, comprehensive treatment of a singular and relatively obscure institution in American Jewish life. Many aspects of yeshiva life are dealt with: history and structure; ideological and programmatic currents; the socioeconomic and subethnic makeup of student bodies; the path to success in a yeshiva; deviance; and the impact of the yeshiva on subsequent occupations and careers.
