Journal of Halacha and Contemporary Society
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Journal of Halacha and Contemporary Society is a semiannual Orthodox Jewish academic journal published by the Rabbi Jacob Joseph School and as of 2004[update] edited by Alfred Cohen. As its title implies, it is devoted to the interface between halakha (halacha, Jewish law and ethics) and modern society; thus, some articles will discuss how recent scientific developments are viewed by halakha while others may examine modern trends in Jewish life.
A frequent contributor is Fred Rosner, writing about medicine; another is the editor. According to the masthead, all articles are vetted by halachic authorities.
