Many people think of Jews as victims of a particular sort of
racism, not as active participants in the development of racial
thinking in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Yet many Jews
did take up racial discourse and used it to analyze Judaism, Jewish
history, and the contemporary condition of world Jewry. Race
discourse generated by Jews was in part apologetic, a response to
racial antisemitism; however, it also served other political and
ideological needs.
Focusing primarily on works written at the height of the racial
hygiene and eugenics movements in Europe and North America, this
diverse anthology shows how Jewish scholars and popular writers in
Europe, North America, and Palestine developed racial
interpretations of Judaism and Jewish history, thereby raising
fascinating and thorny issues about the nature and history of
racial discourse in Europe and America. Designed for class
adoption, the volume contains annotations and an introduction by
the editor.
