Análisis del crecimiento de las comunidades judías ortodoxas en Chile.

- Abstract
This article analyzes the increased growth of orthodox communities among Chilean Jews. These communities have risen dramatically in the past decade, due to the emergence of several orthodox institutions that promote the study of the Torah among young people; a growing demand for spirituality and a certain decline of the traditional institutions of Chile's secular Jews. This article is based on interviews with orthodox rabbis and members of Santiago's orthodox community and aims to reconstruct the history of Chile's Jewish orthodox communities, of which there are no bibliographical records in existence.
