The Katznelson Institute of Social and Political Science in Israel will inaugurate an annual international seminar for leading Jewish and non-Jewish scholars and social scientists, it was announced here today by Aron Horowitz, dean of the Foreign Studies Department of the Institute, which is located at Kfar Saba.
Dr. Ernest Melby, dean of the School of Education of New York University, said at a meeting of the American Friends of the Katznelson Institute that “this type of seminar for editors, university officials, educators, sociologists, economists, journalists and clergymen–who will meet with the greatest Israel scholars in an exchange of ideas, views and experiences on Israel and world problems–will bring about closer understanding between the various countries.”
