Description
Book SynopsisThis is the first volume in a multidisciplinary series on anti-Semitism in America to be published by Academic Studies Press. Eighteen leading scholars explore the roots and manifestations of anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism at American, British, and Canadian colleges and universities over the course of the 20th century and the responses to them. Topics range from the intensification of anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism on individual campuses and the anti-Israel divestment and boycott movements, to discrimination against Jewish faculty, students, and organisations, and students' exposure to anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism through popular culture.
Trade ReviewFrom Pollack's perspective, and that of many of the articles included in this volume, anti-Zionism appears to have become the latest form of antisemitism. Campus activists unite around the thesis that true peace only will be possible when Zionists give up the idea of creating a Jewish homeland. -- Dr. Sarah Schmidt
