From Ambivalence to Betrayal is the first study to explore the
transformation in attitudes on the Left toward the Jews, Zionism,
and Israel since the origins of European socialism in the 1840s
until the present. This pathbreaking synthesis reveals a striking
continuity in negative stereotypes of Jews, contempt for Judaism,
and negation of Jewish national self-determination from the days of
Karl Marx to the current left-wing intellectual assault on Israel.
World-renowned expert on the history of antisemitism Robert S.
Wistrich provides not only a powerful analysis of how and why the
Left emerged as a spearhead of anti-Israel sentiment but also new
insights into the wider involvement of Jews in radical movements.
There are fascinating portraits of Marx, Moses Hess, Bernard
Lazare, Rosa Luxemburg, Leon Trotsky, and other Jewish
intellectuals, alongside analyses of the darker face of socialist
and Communist antisemitism. The closing section eloquently exposes
the degeneration of leftist anti-Zionist critiques into a novel
form of "anti-racist" racism.
