Antisemitism and Xenophobia in Germany after Unification (Oxford Studies in Comparative Syntax

by Hermann Kurthen (editor), Werner Bergmann (Editor), Rainer Erb (Editor)

Since unification, Germany has experienced profound changes, including the reawakening of xenophobic hate crime, antisemitic incidents, and racist violence. This book presents the most recent research conducted by a team of American and German experts in political science, sociology, mass communication, and history. They analyze the degrees of antisemitism, xenophobia, remembrance, and Holocaust knowledge in German public opinion; the groups and organizations that propagate such prejudice and hate; and the German, American, and Jewish perceptions of, and reactions to, these phenomena.
