Judith S. Goldstein received a bachelor’s degree from Cornell University in 1962 with a concentration on European and American history. As a Woodrow Wilson Scholar at Columbia University, she received a master's degree in European history, and wrote her thesis on the “Mouvement Republicain Populaire and the Franco-Vietnamese War, 1946-1954.” In 1972, Goldstein completed her doctoral studies at Columbia University after writing her dissertation on “The Politics of Ethnic Pressure: The American Jewish Committee Fight Against Immigration Restriction: 1906-1917.” This thesis was published as a book by Routledge in 1990 and republished in 2020, as the beginning of a sustained concentration on immigration and diversity in America and Europe.
