Canadian Jewish Studies is an interdisciplinary academic journal and official publication of the Association for Canadian Jewish Studies.[1][2]

Founded in 1993, the journal publishes scholarship on all aspects of the Canadian Jewish experience.[3] It has appeared biannually since 2019. It is open access and features contributions in both of Canada's official languages, English and French.[4]

In addition to peer-reviewed articles and book reviews of English- and French-language titles, the journal publishes several regular sub-sections:

  • "The Archives Matter" features contributions by researchers and archivists reflecting on the use of Jewish and non-Jewish archival sources for the study of Canadian Jewish life.
  • "Reflections" includes essays by scholars on their careers in the field of Canadian Jewish Studies. Contributors include the sociologists Robert Brym (University of Toronto) and Morton Weinfeld (McGill University), as well as the historians Pierre Anctil (University of Ottawa), Ira Robinson (Concordia University), and Harold Troper (University of Toronto)
  • "Translation" presents annotated English- or French-language translations of texts originally composed in other languages and relevant to the Canadian Jewish experience. Texts have been translated from Yiddish, Hebrew, Russian, German, and Turkish.
  • "Roundtable" gathers scholars and practitioners in conversation about a theme or subject relevant to the field of Canadian Jewish Studies.

The journal's current editor is David S. Koffman, the J. Richard Shiff Chair for the Study of Canadian Jewry at York University.[5]
