DESCRIPTION:Cultural Intimacy\, Boundaries and Sensations: Jewish-Muslim r
 elations in Central Asia\nChen Bram's research combines anthropological an
 d historical study to explore connections between intergroup relations\, r
 eligiosity and collective identities. It examines Jewish-Muslim relations 
 in Ferghana Valley\, Uzbekistan\, in late Soviet Period and in post-Soviet
  era. This research proposes a theoretical framework that focuses on inter
 group cultural intimacy as a contribution to the better understanding of J
 ewish-Muslim relations and intergroup relations. Informal practices\, in w
 hich sensations are playing important role\, are central to the developmen
 t of cultural intimacy that allows the maintenance of social networks beyo
 nd religious and ethnic boundaries. Moreover\, it also allows overcoming a
 ttempts to create tensions and to stress differences between these groups.
 \nThis study is part of wider research that aims to explore the meaning of
  past experiences to current intergroup relations between Jewish immigrant
 s from Central Eurasia and their Muslim neighbors in Israel and other new 
 locations (such as New York City). This guest lecture will focus on the an
 thropological- historical part of the research.
