Abstract

On the basis of data collected from forms sent to a group of converts to Judaism (between 2006-2016) by the synagogue of the Israelite Religious Association of Rio de Janeiro, I intend to present the perspectives of those who answered the form about what is the Brazilian Reform Judaism in their own perception. As well as the peculiar characteristics of this Jewish current within Brazilian society in comparison with Reformism in other Latin
American countries. In addition to the US and Canada, logically according to the experience of each interviewed.
