Antisemitism takes on various forms in all parts of the world, and the essays in this wide-ranging volume deal with many of them: European antisemitism, antisemitism and Islamophobia, antisemitism and anti-Zionism, and efforts to demonize and delegitimize Israel. Contributors are an international group of scholars who clarify the cultural, intellectual, political, and religious conditions that give rise to antisemitic words and deeds. These landmark essays are noteworthy for their timeliness and ability to grapple effectively with the serious issues at hand.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>Deciphering the New Antisemitism</em> is a timely and thought-provoking book--a must-read for scholars of contemporary Jewish history, Israeli history, and political science. In spite of its being a scholarly annotated volume, it offers important information for the general Jewish population--for anyone, basically, who wishes to better understand the complex and dangerous world in which we live today, and the various attitudes toward Jews that have not, in fact, disappeared, even in the liberal West. Unfortunately, we are constantly learning that the opposite is true.</p>-- "Studies in Contemporary Jewry"<br><br><p>[T]his anthology contributes significantly to our understanding of the contemporary rise in antisemitic attitudes around the world.</p>-- "H-Judaic"<br><br><p>Some are stunningly perceptive, some explore new dimensions, and while not all offer lapidary prose (they are written by academics, after all), each offers new insights about the thoughts and activities of current anti-Semites and the evil they purvey. A source book that will be of special value to those who see and are concerned about the new anti-Semitism.</p>-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br><p>This volume, rich in information, is not for the casual reader, but is recommended as a valuable compilation of research and analysis that will help concerned readers track the evolution of anti-Semitism and determine which trends are most worrisome.</p>-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Alvin H. Rosenfeld holds the Irving M. Glazer Chair in Jewish Studies and is Professor of English and Founding Director of the Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism at Indiana University Bloomington.
