A classic study of an outstanding Israeli historian and sociologist Yakov Katsa is devoted to the analysis of a complex and long-term investigation process in European Society. The exit of Jews from social and cultural isolation is considered by the researcher in the context of fundamental changes in the socio-political climate of Central and Western Europe at the end of the XVIII - the first half of the XIX centuries. The faithful CATC social history methodology seeks to determine how these changes affected various parties to the lives of European Jews: on their religious views, moral and public ideals, contacts with non-Jewish environment, community autonomy, civil status, professional activities. A special place in the study of Katsa takes the analysis of new ideologies formed in this crisis period and determined the first appearance of modern Jewry - Gascala (Jewish education), reformism and orthodoxy.
An analysis conducted by historian allows you to identify the characteristic features of emancipated Jewry, distinguishing it both from the traditional community and from the surrounding Christian society
