Book Description
The Government undertook to report back to Parliament on progress made on the response to the All Party Parliamentary Inquiry into Antisemitism. This one year update is based on the five themes from the original inquiry: antisemitic incidents; antisemitic discourse; sources of contemporary antisemitism; antisemitism on campus; addressing antisemitism. The Government reports significant progress against many of the commitments made in the response (Cm. 7059, ISBN 9780101705929). But there is no room for complacency: the number of antisemitic incidents was 547 in 2007, the second highest on record. The report outlines Government help to the All Party Committee to take its inquiry model across Europe, USA and Canada, and the funding of the European Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism. Work in schools is also proceeding. A further positive development has been the cross-governmental strategy to combat all forms of hate crime, and by April 2009 all police forces will collect data on hate crimes including antisemitism. Security relating to Jewish communal buildings and schools has also been addressed. The Government is extending support to the Holocaust Educational Trust's "Lessons from Auschwitz" course, and increasing funding for the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust. The Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills has published guidance to higher education institutions on promoting good campus relations, fostering shared values and preventing violent extremism.

Strange Hate
Author: Keith Kahn-harris
Publisher: Watkins Media Limited
ISBN: 1912248441
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Keith Kahn-Harris argues that the controversy over antisemitism today is a symptom of a growing "selectivity" in anti-racism caused by a failure to engage with the challenges that diverse societies pose. How did antisemitism get so strange? How did hate become so clouded in controversy? And what does the strange hate of antisemitism tell us about racism and the politics of diversity today? Life-long anti-racists accused of antisemitism, life-long Jew haters declaring their love of Israel... Today, antisemitism has become selective. Non-Jews celebrate the "good Jews" and reject the "bad Jews". And its not just antisemitism that's becoming selective, racists and anti-racists alike are starting to choose the minorities they love and hate. In this passionate yet closely-argued polemic from a writer with an intimate knowledge of the antisemitism controversy, Keith Kahn-Harris argues that the emergence of strange hatreds shows how far we are from understanding what living in diverse societies really means. Strange Hate calls for us to abandon selective anti-racism and rethink how we view not just Jews and antisemitism, but the challenge of living with diversity.

The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion
Author: Sergei Nilus
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781947844964

Pages : 96
Book Description
"The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" is almost certainly fiction, but its impact was not. Originating in Russia, it landed in the English-speaking world where it caused great consternation. Much is made of German anti-semitism, but there was fertile soil for "The Protocols" across Europe and even in America, thanks to Henry Ford and others.
