With an overview essay, timeline, reference entries, and annotated
bibliography, this resource is a concise, one-stop reference on
antisemitism in today's society. Stretching back to biblical times,
antisemitism is perhaps the world's oldest hatred of a group. It
has manifested itself around the world, sometimes taking the form
of superficially innocent jokes and at other times promoting such
tragedies as the Holocaust. Far from disappeared, its continued
existence in today's society is evidenced by vandalism of Jewish
cemeteries and shootings at synagogues. This book explores the
causes and consequences of contemporary antisemitism, placing this
form of hatred in its historical, political, and social contexts.
An overview essay surveys the background and significance of
antisemitism and provides historical context for discussions of
contemporary topics. A timeline highlights key events related to
antisemitism. Some 50 alphabetically arranged reference entries
provide objective, fundamental information about people, events,
and other topics related to antisemitism. These entries cite works
for further reading and provide cross-references to related topics.
An annotated bibliography cites and evaluates some of the most
important resources on antisemitism suitable for student research.
