Contemporary Antisemitism

and the Acquiescence of the West

Mittwoch, 6. Juli 2011, 19.30 Uhr, Amadeu Antonio Stiftung

Linienstr. 139, 10115 Berlin, (U6 – Oranienburger Tor)

Charles Asher Small, Ph.D.

Executive Director, Yale Initiative for the Interdisciplinary Study of Antisemitism (YIISA), Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA

Dr. Small will speak about contemporary antisemitism. He will focus on the rise of radical Islamism as a social movement, and how this social movement is using genocidal antisemitism as a strategic weapon not only against Israel and Jews, but also the “West”. Dr. Small will also discuss the response of the “West” to this form of global antisemitism, with a focus on the “academic world”.

organized by the International Institute for Education and Research on Antisemitism (IIBSA)

We believe that ethnic, national, and religious hatreds, including anti-Semitism and anti-Israelism, have no place in our institutions, disciplines, and communities. We employ academic means to address these issues.
