A New Antisemitism? What we are witnessing today is the second great mutation of antisemitism in modern times, from racial antisemitism to religious anti-Zionism (with the added premise that all Jews are Zionists). Antisemitism exists and is dangerous whenever two contradictory factors appear in combination: the belief that Jews are so powerful that they are responsible for the evils of the world, and the knowledge that they are so powerless that they can be attacked with impunity. Antisemitism is alive, active and virulent in the year 2002, after more than half a century of Holocaust education, inter-faith dialogue, United Nations declarations, dozens of museums and memorials, hundreds of films, thousands of courses, and tens of thousands of books dedicated to exposing its evils. www.axt.org.uk /essays/sacks1.htm

islam and antisemitism Analyzes the causes of antisemitism and its expressions in the ancient period, in Christianity and later in Islam, differentiating between religious and pseudo-scientific, racial antisemitism after 1800. Antisemitism and persecutions of the Jews are mentioned throughout the historical narrative, from antiquity to the present. Describes the antisemitism of the ancient pagans; of early, medieval, and modern Christians; of "post-Christians" (such as Voltaire who reintroduced the Jew-hatred of the ancient Greeks and Romans); of liberals (who would deny the Jews an autonomous existence); and of socialists and communists from Marx to the rulers of the Soviet Union. sicsa.huji.ac.il /islam.html

Weaver Santaniello - Nietzsche's Antichrist : 19th-Century Christian Jews and the Real Big Lie - Modern Judaism 17:2 It is thus vital to recognize (with Kaufmann) that Nietzsche's critique of Christianity is entwined with his disdain for antisemitism, and that his position regarding Judaism is an exact reversal of the traditional Christian antisemitism of his time. The antisemites surrounding Nietzsche include his sister Elisabeth, a vile Christian antisemite; her husband Bernhard Förster (the son of a Protestant pastor) who, along with Elisabeth in 1886, cultivated a human breeding colony in Paraguay devoted to Aryan racial purity; The Christian God is a god of the sick and one of the most "corrupt" conceptions of the divine ever attained on earth (18): "Almost two thousand years," Nietzsche cries, "and not a single new god!"

1896: Racial and Religious Prejudice Of course, prejudices against blacks was not the only form of political and social discrimination in the U.S. Antisemitism figured prominently in campaign rhetoric, debates around immigration centered on anti-Chinese sentiment, and depictions of events in Turkey also drew on white prejudices against Turks as a " dark and heathen race." The Republican platform did make a brief statement against lynching, but little reference was made to it during the campaign. projects.vassar.edu /1896/prejudice.html   (1417 words)

John Pawlikowski's Review of Kertzer's book, "The Popes against the Jews Kertzer is generally to be critiqued for failing to address the continuity-discontinuity issue in terms of Christian antisemitism and racial antisemitism far more thoroughly. While WE REMEMBER does acknowledge, according to Kertzer, some personal complicity in the spread of antisemitism by members of the Catholic Church, it argues that the antisemitism of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries was essentially a secular (even anti-Catholic) phenomenon and implies that the church in fact opposed such anti-semitism. David Kertzer adds yet another selection to what is becoming a virtual "book-of-the-month" club on institutional Catholicism, antisemitism and the Holocaust. www.chretiens-et-juifs.org /article.php?voir[]=1698&voir[]=4941   (1417 words)

Untitled Document By the way, Wilhelm Marr (the German who coined the term "antisemitism"), your "hater of Jewry" and "racial ideologue," obviously couldn't have been as racially-minded as you'd like. Wilhelm Marr, the hater of Jewy and racial ideologue who coined the term "anti-Semite" in the late nineteenth century to refer to himself, obviously meant something entirely different by it than does Abraham Foxman when he uses it today. The main reason is that Marr wasn't Jewish, and Foxman IS a Jew whose JOB is to make sure Jews are always scared enough into coughing up more dough to fight "antisemitism": i.e., conjuring the eternal Hitler on the horizon. www.jewishtribalreview.org /ariel.htm   (2072 words)

Waldorf Critics Archive 0301 (January, 2003) Steiner, on the other hand, taught that racial diversity is an unfortunate detour on the path of evolution toward the universal human, a sort of glitch in cosmic development. Steiner's version of antisemitism is sometimes called assimilationist antisemitism, a term which is not meant to suggest that all versions of assimilationism are antisemitic (they aren't). The positions that Steiner espoused both early in his career and after his theosophical conversion were, at this level, fairly widespread among German intellectuals at the time, though the later Steiner dressed up his antisemitism in a distinctively anthroposophical vocabulary ("the Jewish mission is no longer necessary in evolution" etc.). www.waldorfcritics.com /active/archives/WCA0301.html   (19110 words)

JPR Newsletter, Spring 2003 The phenomenon in evidence is more accurately described as ‘Judeophobia’, as it involves a manifest hostility towards Jews and Israel, rather than the propagation of the racial ideologies of the old antisemitism. At the conference, the editors presented their conclusion that, although the ‘new antisemitism’ is not yet primarily to be found on the streets in Britain, a strong case can be made that it is to be found among certain elites in the media, churches, universities and trades unions. She also welcomed the imminent publication of A New Antisemitism: Debating Judeophobia in 21st Century Britain and was most interested to learn of JPR’s work in the field of Jewish arts and culture. www.jpr.org.uk /Newsletter/Spring_2003.htm   (6504 words)

Antisemitism Worldwide 2003/4 - UK Small working parties were established, including one composed of senior CPS officials, the deputy head of the Metropolitan Police Racial and Violent Crime Task Force, the Central Criminal Court, Searchlight magazine and the BoD/CST, to analyze and assess the statistics on racial crime drawn from the police, the prosecuting authorities and the courts. The party is now led by a younger and more able team, some of whom are less tainted by association with past neo-Nazi activity and racist violence on the streets. While the party focuses on demonstrating against asylum seekers and against the IRA in Ulster, it retains the antisemitic ideology of its mostly former NF founders. www.tau.ac.il /Anti-Semitism/asw2003-4/uk.htm   (3687 words)

Reader says Jared Israel's criticism of Mahathir is 'Out of Context'. Jared Israel Responds. Media accounts of Mahathir's speech generally described him as a "moderate" and stressed that other parts of the speech were "reasonable." Mahathir clearly understands that by introducing the most extreme anti-Jewish racism into mainstream public discourse, he altered the international political landscape, drastically expanding the influence of the political ideology called antisemitism. Mahathir's first claim to fame (or rather, notoriety) was the publication of The Malay Dilemma after the May 13, 1969 racial riots in Kuala Lumpur.

Simon Wiesenthal Center Multimedia Learning Center Online In addition, in the 1890s the doctrine of volkisch-racial antisemitism was taken up by the peasant movements created by Hermann Ahlwardt and Otto Boeckel respectively in Pomerania and Hesse. Starting in the late 1870s, modem antisemitism was used by the social and political ruling circles as a means to distract and manipulate, as, for example, with the Christian-Social Party of court chaplain Adolf Stoecker during the Bismarck period.

Whereas England& orientalist literary vogue progressed in tandem with its state-sponsored and commercial contacts with the Near East and India, producing “Eastern” texts overtly enmeshed in class, gender, and political discourses of the day, French exemplars demonstrate a more fantastical, utopian Oriental universe. www.literature-compass.com /viewpoint.asp?section=5&ref=383   (4168 words)

The Holocaust Chronicle PROLOGUE: Roots of the Holocaust, page 41 Marr's conception of antisemitism focused on the supposed racial, as opposed to religious, characteristics of the Jews. Marr and others employed the word antisemitism in the largely secular anti-Jewish political campaigns that became widespread in Europe around the turn of the century. Marr thought that before long "there will be absolutely no public office, even the highest one, which the Jews will not have usurped." For Marr, it was a badge of honor to be called an antisemite. www.holocaustchronicle.org /staticpages/41.html   (678 words)

Australian Memories Of The Holocaust The new, pseudo-scientific doctrine of racial antisemitism drew on all these stereotypes and formulated a view of history as the struggle for racial supremacy between Jews and Aryans. From here it was a short step to the paranoid belief in a Jewish world conspiracy which aimed to undermine societies, overthrow governments and seize power throughout the world. They were subjected to inordinate taxation, denigrating legislation, inquisition, censorship, forced baptism, compulsory attendance at church, frequent property confiscation and even expulsion. www.holocaust.com.au /jn/antisemitism.htm   (552 words)

Should one emphasize the Similarities or the Differences between Antisemitism during the Second Reich (1871-1918) and Antisemitism in Nazi Germany? The first influential propagandist of the racial theory was in fact French, Count Arthur de Gobineau, and also in the last decades of the nineteenth century antisemitic authors like Edouard Drumont gained big publicity. The example mostly used in historiography is France, where there was an uprise of Antisemitism similar to that in Germany. Drumont's two-volume work "La France Juive" ("Jewish France") denounced the Jews as parasites destroying the French nation and postulated a reversal of emacipation. www.informatik.hu-berlin.de /~goebel/ha/ha_antis.htm   (2815 words)
