SAPIR: A Journal of Jewish Conversations, also known as the SAPIR Journal, is a quarterly journal focused on cultural, political, and social issues related to the Jewish community, with a focus on American Jews.[1] The journal consists of invited long-form think-pieces published quarterly on a theme of interest to the Jewish community.[2]
SAPIR is published by the Maimonides Fund, and its editor-in-chief is The New York Times columnist Bret Stephens. SAPIR publicly launched in March 2021 and released its first issue in April.[2] SAPIR's launch was amidst a rise, between 2021 and 2023, of journals across the ideological spectrum related to the Jewish experience, including by left-leaning T'ruah.[3][4]
On April 1, 2023, the Maimonides Fund launched the SAPIR Institute, an in-house organ to turn the ideas generated by the journal into future plans of action. The institute is led by Chanan Weissman, former White House Jewish Liaison for the Obama and Biden Administrations.[5]
