Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies is a triannual peer-reviewed academic journal published by Purdue University Press on behalf of the university's Jewish Studies Program. Shofar is the official journal of the Midwest and Western Jewish Studies Associations. The journal publishes original, scholarly work and reviews a wide range of recent books in Judaica.

History

The journal was originally established as a departmental newsletter by Joseph Haberer in 1981. Over time, it developed into a peer-reviewed journal.{{cite journal |title=Starting something new: interdisciplinary programs signify major growth in the University |journal=Liberal Arts Magazine |date=Fall 2006 |volume=14 |issue=1 |url=https://www.cla.purdue.edu/news/magazine/documents/2006Fall.pdf |access-date=6 October 2012 |editor1-first=Kelly |editor1-last=Hiller |page=9 }}{{cite journal |title=Jewish Studies Awards First Joseph Haberer Book Prize |journal=Interdisciplinary Studies |date=Spring 2008 |volume=5 |issue=1 |url=https://www.cla.purdue.edu/idis/idis/documents/idis_spring_2008_web.pdf |access-date=6 October 2012 |page=8 }}{{dead link|date=May 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

In 2023, the journal accepted an article about the marginalization of Palestinians in the Association for Jewish Studies and later withdrew the paper shortly before it was due to be published.{{cite journal |last1=Schreier |first1=Benjamin |title=Who Gets to Talk When “WE” Talk about Israel: An Intersectional Meditation on Inclusivity |journal=Palestine/Israel Review |date=3 October 2024 |doi=10.5325/pir.2.2.0001 |url=https://scholarlypublishingcollective.org/psup/pir/article/doi/10.5325/pir.2.2.0001/391388 |issn=2834-4324}}
