Publisher: Free Press
ISBN:
Category : Discrimination
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Ch. 10 (pp. 181-198), "The Economic Success of American Jewry, " discusses also the problem of anti-Jewish discrimination in the USA, concluding that the level of discrimination was much lower than that evinced against other immigrant groups. Mentions that in American society antisemitism became widespread from the latter part of the 19th century up to 1927, a period dominated by the negative stereotype of the Jewish businessman. Examines different economic explanations for this phenomenon. Ch. 11 (pp. 199-217), "Middleman Minority Theories and Black-Jewish Relations, " deals with economic theories stating that the Black-Jewish relationship is fundamentally antagonistic as a result of the occupations in which Jews are concentrated. Mentions that "elite antisemitism" decreased in recent years, but remarks on the frequency of anti-Jewish and anti-Israel practices in American corporations as a result of Arab pressure.

A World Without Jews
Author: Alon Confino
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300190468
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
A groundbreaking reexamination of the Holocaust and how Germans understood their genocidal project: “Insightful [and] chilling.” —Kirkus Reviews Why exactly did the Nazis burn the Hebrew Bible everywhere in Germany on November 9, 1938? The perplexing event has not been adequately accounted for by historians in their large-scale assessments of how and why the Holocaust occurred. In this gripping new analysis, Alon Confino draws on an array of archives across three continents to propose a penetrating new assessment of one of the central moral problems of the twentieth century. To a surprising extent, Confino demonstrates, the mass murder of Jews during the war years was powerfully anticipated in the culture of the prewar years. The author shifts his focus away from the debates over what the Germans did or did not know about the Holocaust and explores instead how Germans came to conceive of the idea of a Germany without Jews. He traces the stories the Nazis told themselves—where they came from and where they were heading—and how those stories led to the conclusion that Jews must be eradicated in order for the new Nazi civilization to arise. The creation of this new empire required that Jews and Judaism be erased from Christian history, and this was the inspiration—and justification—for Kristallnacht. As Germans entertained the idea of a future world without Jews, the unimaginable became imaginable, and the unthinkable became real. “At once so disturbing and so hypnotic to read . . . Deserves the widest possible audience.” —Open Letters Monthly
