This volume documents the transformation of age-old antisemitic stereotypes into a new form of discrimination, often called "New Antisemitism" or "Antisemitism 2.0." Manifestations of antisemitism in political, legal, media and other contexts are reflected on theoretically and contemporary developments are analyzed with a special focus on online hatred. The volume points to the need for a globally coordinated approach on the political and legal levels, as well as with regard to the modern media, to effectively combat modern antisemitism.

This volume traces the history of antisemitism from antiquity through contemporary manifestations of the discrimination of Jews. It documents the religious, sociological, political and economic contexts in which antisemitism thrived and thrives and shows how such circumstances served as support and reinforcement for a curtailment of the Jews' social status. The volume sheds light on historical processes of discrimination and identifies them as a key factor in the contemporary and future fight against antisemitism.

The five volumes provide a compendium of the history of and discourse about antisemitism - both as a unique cultural and religious category. Antisemitic stereotypes function as religious symbols that express and transmit a belief system of Jew-hatred, which are stored in the cultural and religious memories of the Western and Muslim worlds. This volume explores the phenomenon from the perspectives of Philosophy and Social Sciences.

Schon etwa 150 Jahre vor der "Dialektik der Aufklärung" begannen Wissenschaftler, darunter zahlreiche Jüdinnen und Juden, die moderne Judenfeindschaft begrifflich zu erfassen und zu erklären. Der vorliegende Band rekonstruiert erstmals viele dieser aus verschiedenen politischen Richtungen, gesellschaftlichen Bereichen und akademischen Disziplinen stammenden Erklärungsansätze. Sichtbar wird eine vielgestaltige Forschung, die bislang als Vorgeschichte heutiger Antisemitismustheorien kaum Berücksichtigung fand. Erkenntnisleitend für die Analysen ist die Frage, inwiefern es diesen Beschreibungsversuchen gelang, die herrschenden antisemitischen Vorurteile und Denkweisen zu überwinden und dabei Grundlagen für eine wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung zu formulieren. Zu den Autorinnen und Autoren der hier diskutierten Texte gehören u.a. Saul Ascher, Fritz Bernstein, Nathan Birnbaum, Isaac Breuer, Constantin Brunner, Christian Konrad Wilhelm von Dohm, Norbert Elias, Eduard Fuchs, Emma Goldman, Julius Goldstein, David Kaufmann, Bernard Lazare, Moritz Lazarus, Leo Trotzki, Mark Vishniak und Arnold Zweig.

At a time when there is an evident socio-economic, political and cultural structural shift in the processes and practices associated with contemporary manifestations of antisemitism globally, it is important to explore its origins and examine whether the circumstances of its genesis can shed light on its longevity and adaptability. Few scholars are more qualified to undertake such a task than the authors of this volume, who have done so much to develop and advance the discipline of generative anthropology. In this study their groundbreaking hypothesis on the singular event that gave rise to human language and by extension human culture finds a fascinating parallel in the Jewish people's discovery/invention of monotheism, giving rise to historical resentments and hostility. The volume will be of interest to scholars working in the field of anti-discrimination and antisemtitism, as well as human rights scholars and cultural historians in general.

Franz Oppenheimer (1864-1943) was a prominent German sociologist, economist and Zionist activist. As a co-founder of academic sociology in Germany, Oppenheimer vehemently opposed the influence of antisemitism on the nascent field. As an expert on communal agricultural settlement, Oppenheimer co-edited the scientific Zionist journal Altneuland (1904-1906), which became a platform for a distinct Jewish participation within the racial and colonial discourses of Imperial Germany. By positioning Zionist aspirations within a German colonial narrative, Altneuland presented Zionism as an extension, instead of a rejection, of German patriotism. By doing so, the journal's contributors hoped to recruit new supporters and model Zionism as a source of secular Jewish identity for German Jewry. While imagining future relationships between Jews, Arabs, and German settlers in Palestine, Oppenheimer and his contemporaries also reimagined the place of Jews among European nations.
