Publisher Description: This volume presents a selection of the papers presented at the "Global Antisemitism: A Crisis of Modernity" conference organized at Yale University by YIISA/ISGAP in August 2010. It is one of five volumes reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of the conference as well as the diverse nature of the subject of antisemitism in general. These volumes will be of interest to students and scholars of antisemitism and discrimination, as well as to scholars and readers from other fields. Rather than treating antisemitism merely as an historical phenomenon, they place it squarely in the contemporary context. As a result, the papers presented in these volumes also provide important insights into the ideologies, processes, and developments that give rise to prejudice in the contemporary global context. Volume I includes papers that approach antisemitism from a wide range of conceptual perspectives and scholarly disciplines. The following papers appear in this volume: Introduction, Charles Asher Small; "New Europe," Holocaust Memory, and Antisemitism, David M. Seymour; Antisemitism and Anti-Capitalism in the Current Economic Crisis, Nicolas Bechter; Equations in Contemporary Anti-Zionism: A Conceptual Analysis, Shalem Coulibaly; Antisemitic Metaphors and Latent Communication, Bjoern Milbradt; Economic and Behavioral Foundations of Prejudice, Arye L. Hillman; Antisemitism and the Victimary Era, Adam Katz; The Antisemitic Imagination, Catherine Chatterley; The Communication Latency of Antisemitic Attitudes: An Experimental Study, Heiko Beyer and Ivar Krumpal; The Definition of Antisemitism, Kenneth L. Marcus; Embracing the Nation: Jewish Assimilationist and Anti-Zionist Responses to Modernity, C.R. Power and Sharon Power; Nationalism and Antisemitism in the Postnational Constellation: Thoughts on Horkheimer, Adorno, and Habermas, Karin Stoegner and Johannes Hoepoltseder; Modern Capitalist Society, Competing Nation States, Antisemitism and Hatred of the Jewish State, Robin Stoller. |
