Ben's research focuses on examining immigration to Brazil in the first half of the century, with a focus on understanding the experiences of the Jewish people who settled there. He is particularly interested in preparing a thesis studying the community's process of self-definition in the period of 1930-1945. Moser's research will involve both archival research and primary research this fall when he studies in Brazil.
