A strange and repugnant mystery of the twentieth century is the
durability of the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion," a clumsy
forgery purporting to be evidence of the supposed Jewish plot to
rule the world. Though it has been exposed as a forgery, some
apprentice brownshirt is always rediscovering it, the latest in a
line of gullibility that includes, most famously, Henry Ford.
Recently it has been translated into Japanese and circulates once
again with renewed virulence in the former Soviet Union and Eastern
Europe.
In 1924 in Germany the Jewish author and journalist Binjamin
Segel wrote a major historical expose of the fraud and later edited
his work into a shorter form, published as "Welt-Krieg,
Welt-Revolution, Welf-Verschworung, Welt-Oberregierung "(Berlin
1926). Translator Richard S. Levy, a specialist on the history of
anti-semitism, provides an extensive introduction on the
circumstances of Segel's work and the story of the "Protocols" up
to the 1990s, including an explanation of its continuing
psychological appeal and political function.
