Global Antisemitism: A Crisis of Modernity: Volume V: Reflections

This volume presents a selection of the papers presented at the "Global Antisemitism: A Crisis of Modernity" conference organized at Yale University by YIISA/ISGAP in August 2010.

It is one of five volumes reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of the conference as well as the diverse nature of the subject of antisemitism in general.

These volumes will be of interest to students and scholars of antisemitism and discrimination, as well as to scholars and readers from other fields. Rather than treating antisemitism merely as an historical phenomenon, they place it squarely in the contemporary context. As a result, the papers presented in these volumes also provide important insights into the ideologies, processes, and developments that give rise to prejudice in the contemporary global context.

Volume V comprises various "reflections" that were presented at the conference by a number of well-respected observers, academics, and practitioners. They provide insightful observations and important analysis but are not presented in the form of classic academic papers. The following papers appear in this volume:

Introduction, Charles Asher Small; How Do We Put an End to Antisemitism? No, Really, How Do We?, Ruth R. Wisse; Arab and Islamic Antisemitism, Menahem Milson; The History and Psychological Roots of Antisemitism Among Feminists and Their Gradual Stalinization and Palestinianization, Phyllis Chesler; The Rabbi and the President: "Don't Give Us the Holocaust at the Expense of Israel", Walter Reich; Without Ahavath Yisrael: Thoughts on Radical Anti-Zionism at Brandeis, Doron Ben-Atar; Between Opposition and Denial: Radical Responses to Antisemitism in Contemporary Europe, Robert Fine; The Iranian President, the Canadian Professor, the Literary Journal, and the Holocaust Denial Conference That Never Was: The Strange Reality of Shiraz Dossa, Deborah E. Lipstadt; Making History: Engaging, Educating, and Empowering Faculty to Address Issues of Antisemitism in the Academy, Edward S. Beck; Struggles over the Boundaries of Legitimate Discourse: Antizionism, Bad-Faith Allegations and The Livingstone Formulation, David Hirsh; The Language of the New Antisemitism, Michael C. Kotzin; The EU, the Middle East, and Antisemitism, Leslie S. Lebl; The Unique Nature of Palestinian Antisemitism: A Foundation of Palestinian National Identity, Itamar Marcus; Some Philosophical Reflections on Antisemitism Today, Alan S. Rosenbaum; Modern Antisemitism and National Identity, Ilka Schroeder; Sisterhood Was Powerful and Global: Where Did It Go?, Thyme S. Siegel; Progress in Combating Antisemitism at the International Level, Michael Whine; The Effect of the Resurgence of Antisemitism on Holocaust Survivors, Barbara Wind.
