Ban on conversion to Judaism in Argentina information


The ban on conversion to Judaism in Argentina is a boycott based on a judgement issued in 1927 by the Sephardic Rabbi Shaul Seton (Heb') (Aleppo, Syria, 1851 – Argentina, June 15, 1930) and Rabbi Aharon Halevi Goldman (Heb') (Podolya, Russian Empire, 1854 – Argentina, February 13, 1932). According to the ban, no one is permitted to conduct conversion to Judaism on the land of Argentina. Its purpose was to deter young Jews from intermarriage.[1][2] The boycott was not fully enforced, and there is evidence of the existence of conversions even after it was imposed.[3][4][5][6][7] According to Rabbi Eliyahu Birenboym, the boycott did not achieve its goals, and Jewish assimilation remains a widespread phenomenon in Argentina.[8]
