Yitzhak Mor

Yitzhak Mor is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Comparative Religion and a Rotenstreich Fellow at the Mandel School for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Additionally, Yitzhak serves as the secretary of the Center for the Study of Christianity at the university.

His doctoral research focuses on the political theology of Catholic and Jewish thinkers within the conservative movement in the United States over the past three decades. It examines the influence of religious elements on the political sphere, interreligious relations in the United States, and issues of antisemitism and philosemitism.

​Within the Christosemitism project, Yitzhak examines the complex relations between conservative Catholic circles in the United States and ecclesiastical authorities in Rome around questions of Catholic-Jewish relations. His research explores the religious foundations underlying practices of reconciliation, rapprochement, and cooperation between conservative Catholics and Jews, alongside Christian understandings of antisemitism and the theological efforts directed at its repudiation. He situates developments in the United States within a broader comparative analysis of parallel processes in Europe.​
