Abstract:

The American Jewish response to the Hispanic agenda has, at best, been selective, issue-based, and personality-driven. A 21st-century strategy for relationships between the two communities should be built on five interest centers: economic development, quality public education, sharing expertise in service delivery, common cultural traditions, and political empowerment.
