Under the programme's new title 'The Jewish World' Michael Freedland speaks with Rabbi Hugo Gryn about the Archbishop of Canterbury's condemnation of Jewish religious fundamentalism, and about Rabbi Gryn’s roots in the former Czechoslovakia. He discusses a new Encyclopaedia of the Holocaust published by the kibbutz movement. He speaks with Jewish Agency official and former general Uzi Narkiss about the latest crisis within the Israeli government and to Stephen Roth, Chair of the Zionist Federation, on his meeting with the Egyptian Ambassador, and hears from ultra-orthodox activist Sandy Weinbaum on a science and technology exhibition at Lubavitch House aimed at women and girls. There’s word of a gathering of the clans, and reminiscences from musician Larry Adler. This is a programme from the Â鶹Éç archive, originally broadcast on Â鶹Éç Radio in the 1980s. Aspects of the programme reflect the time when it was made and due to rights considerations, the music may be shorter than in the original programme.
