| Extra Info | : | Antisemitism is one of the oldest and most persistent forms of collective hatred. It mutates across time and place, taking on new language and symbols — yet remaining rooted in enduring projections of fear, envy, and blame. The Jew as outsider, scapegoat, invisible infiltrator or global manipulator: these archetypes are deeply embedded in the cultural and unconscious fabric of many societies, including those that pride themselves on openness and diversity. Historically, antisemitism has been striking in its contradictions. Jews have been hated for being too poor and too rich, too radical and too conservative, too insular and too assimilated. In the Middle Ages, they were persecuted for their religion; in the 19th and 20th centuries, for their supposed race. In recent years, the focus has often shifted to the existence and actions of their nation-state, Israel, — raising difficult questions about the point at which reasonable political criticism crosses the line into a kind of irrational demonization. |
