Peruvian Jews
Face Changes?
Lima (JTA) — Political inter-
est in South. America is now fo-
cused on Peru. The inauguration
of the young president, Alan
Garcia, his nationalist and
populist argumentation and his
initial challenge to the country's
creditors , about foreign debt,
have shaken the continent.
There is no doubt that Peru
has moved to the left, and the
main opposition party is even
further left than Garcia's party.
According to observers, Jews
voted, in their majority, for
neither of these: They preferred
the conservatives, who are out
of power.
Nevertheless, it is unlikely
that the Jewish community will
meet with problems under the
new government, althciugh there
are some fears with regards to
Peru's relationship with Israel
and its attitude concerning
zionism. .
Peru considers itself a Third
World country. Antagonism
against the industrialized coun-
tries and the north American
leadership is stronger than ever.
The Soviet presence is the
strongest here of any South
American country. It is no acci-
dent that the PLO has an office
with full diplomatic status, rec-
ognized by the Peruvian gov-
ernment.
According to a study by Leon
Trahtemberg, director of the
Hebrew School of Lima, the
Jewish population of Peru de-
creased by about ten percent
during the last few years, to
about 4,500, because of the de-
crease in the Jewish birth rate
and emigration, chiefly to the
U.S. and Israel. "From a histori-
cal perspective," says Trahtem-
berg, "the socio-economic level
of Jews in Peru tends to rise,"
despite the economic crisis
which affects them too.
About 90 percent of Jewish
youngsters study in. the Hebrew
School but a third of them.go to
Israel or the U.S. for higher
education. They usually choose
status careers, that is, sciences
or high technology.
During their university term,
young Jews remaining in Peru
tend to stray from the commu-
nity framework. Trahtemberg
believes that there is a certain
tendency to "social and cultural
assimilation" and states that
"'nixed marriages are increas-
ing: they are about 20 percent."
The Peruvian public is not
really aware of Jewish ques-
tions. It only takes an interest
in issues related to Israel when
some 'facts makes the headlines.
Two questions confront the
small but close knit Jewish
community of Peru in the im-
mediate future: How will
President Garcia's policy of
"new distribution of income" af-
fect the well-off middle class, to
which Jews belong? And what
role will there be in the new
situation for' anti-Israeli agita-
tion and for anti-Israeli agita-
tion and for Third World sol-
idarity on the part of pro-Arab
factions? • •
