History edit

In 1935, the favorable reception to Rabbi Mordecai Kaplan's book Judaism as a Civilization inspired Kaplan to launch a magazine, The Reconstructionist, for the Reconstructionist movement.[1] The magazine was established by Mordecai Kaplan, Milton Steinberg, Eugene Kohn, and Ira Eisenstein.[2] It was renamed The Reconstructionist Journal in 1996 and ceased publication in 2007.[3]
