Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism Summary

Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism: The Dynamics of Delegitimization by Alvin H. Rosenfeld

How and why have anti-Zionism and antisemitism become so radical and widespread? This timely and important volume argues convincingly that today's inflamed rhetoric exceeds the boundaries of legitimate criticism of the policies and actions of the state of Israel and conflates anti-Zionism with antisemitism. The contributors give the dynamics of this process full theoretical, political, legal, and educational treatment and demonstrate how these forces operate in formal and informal political spheres as well as domestic and transnational spaces. They offer significant historical and global perspectives of the problem, including how Holocaust memory and meaning have been reconfigured and how a singular and distinct project of delegitimization of the Jewish state and its people has solidified. This intensive but extraordinarily rich contribution to the study of antisemitism stands out for its comprehensive overview of an issue that is very much in the public eye.

Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism Reviews

This is timely volume is a compilation of seventeen articles by scholars from all over the world that examine the links between anti-Zionism and antisemitism.

-- Peter L. Rothholz * Jewish Book Council *

Thanks to the efforts of Professor Alvin Rosenfeld, the University of Indiana is gradually acquiring a leadership position among antisemitism institutes in the world. He and his institute have to be complimented for the organization of this conference and the publication of a series of books on antisemitism. One can gain additional insights from this book. The great diversity of articles is indicative of the limited amount of antisemitism research in the world.

-- Manfred Gerstenfeld - Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs * Antisemitism Studies *
