Ron & ' Bobbie Kay - Steve, Stephanie & Jeff Shel & Carol Bross Jeffrey & Michelle NEWS 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? • •
