From Boyarin to the Today’s Exilic Israeli Communities. A series of public lectures on Jewish studies
In 2025, approximately 70,000 Israelis emigrated from Israel. Unlike earlier waves driven mainly by material concerns, this movement is often framed as an ethical response to political, social, and military unrest, and as an effort to cultivate an authentic Hebrew life in the diaspora. Exile is recast not as a Jewish perversion, but as a legitimate and even desirable condition.
