Russian Intellectual Antisemitism in the Post-Communist Era
Antisemitism has had a long and complex history in Russian intellectual life and has revived in the post-Communist era. In their concept of the identity of the Jewish people, many academics and other thinkers in Russia continue to cast Jews in a negative or ambivalent role. An inherent rivalry exists between "Russia" and "the Jews" because Russians have often viewed themselves-whether through the lens of atheistic communism or that of the most conservative elements of the Orthodox Church-as a chosen people whose destiny is to lead the way to world salvation. In this book, Vadim Rossman presents the foundations and present influence of intellectual antisemitism in Russia. He examines the anti...
Nationalist Ideology and Antisemitism
After surveying political and ideological antisemitism in modern Romanian history and its main exponents (Cuza, Iorga, Paulescu, Goga), discusses the evolution of antisemitic ideas in 1930s intellectual life, the importance of antisemitism in Iron Guard ideology, and the influence of its leader, Codreanu, and of extreme right-wing intellectuals (especially Nae Ionescu and N. Crainic) on representatives of the "young generation" of intellectuals (e.g. Eliade and Cioran). Emphasizes the link between antisemitic and anti-democratic and pro-fascist attitudes. Focuses on specific cases of evolution to radical antisemitism (e.g. Brătescu-Voineşti and Manoilescu), and deals with the contradictory case of Panait Istrati, a former left-wing militant. Mentions the use of anti-Jewish theological arguments, antisemitic stereotypes in literature, and forms of anti-Jewish discrimination in "free" professional associations. Underlines the great weight of the "Jewish threat" in Romanian nationalist thinking and its impact on cultural life. The 1930s represented the climax of this trend.
Protocolli Dei Savi Di Sion
Published and distributed for the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism The origins of the infamous forgery the Protocols of the Sages of Zion are the subject of much vigorous debate. In this meticulously researched and cogently argued study, Cesare G. De Michelis illuminates its authors and the circumstances of production by focusing on the text itself. De Michelis examines in detail the earliest texts of the Protocols, looking in particular at the historical and structural relationships among them. His research unveils the differing texts of the Protocols and the presumed date of the first forgery. It also yields a greater understanding of the milieu in which the forgery was produced and the identity and motivations of its authors. This volume is a revised and expanded edition of the original, which appeared in Italian. Featured is an arguably archetypal Russian text of the Protocols, which De Michelis pieced together from several publications, based on careful textual analysis.
Nations We Love to Hate
Shows how old fantasies about Jews have found new targets amongst Europeans in the postwar period. While classical, "operational" antisemitism has disappeared, it has been replaced by "eliminationism-lite", which focuses not on individual Jews but on the Jewish country, Israel, and its leaders. Notes parallels between anti-Israelism and anti-Americanism; both involve stereotyping, denigration, demonization (especially the view that Israel and America are involved in a conspiracy, directed by the former, to control the world), obsession, and elimination. While classical antisemitism has migrated to Islamic countries, new antisemitism flourishes in Europe, which employs a double standard to project blame onto the Jewish state and the USA to absolve itself from guilt related to its behavior during the Holocaust. Some features of the old antisemitism - e.g. the Jews as deicides - reappear in modern form. The hatred of Israel and the U.S. derives from their power, national identity, purpose (including a willingness to use force to defend themselves), and position in a world that resembles a Hobbesian hell. Seen as outsiders, the two countries can never be loved.
