Understanding Antisemitism
In order to understand contemporary antisemitism, one must first understand its historical origins. This section takes learners on a timeline from Judeophobia as religious antisemitism, ethnic persecution and anti-Jewish racism spanning from the Spanish Inquisition to the Holocaust, political antisemitism, and erasive antisemitism. We analyze how antisemitism is adaptive, accumulative, institutional, ideological, and how it has managed to persist.
