Produktbeschreibung
This volume is designed to assist university faculty and students studying and teaching about antisemitism, racism, and other forms of prejudice. In contrast with similar volumes, it is organized around specific concepts instead of chronology or geography. It promotes conversation about antisemitism across disciplinary, geographic, and thematic lines rather than privileging a single methodological paradigm, a specific academic field, or an overarching narrative.

Its twenty-one chapters by leading scholars in diverse fields address the relationship to antisemitism of concepts ranging from Anti-Judaism to Zionism. Each chapter not only traces the history and major scholarly debates around a key concept; it also presents an original argument, points to avenues for further research, and exemplifies a method of investigation.

Rezensionen
"The Green/ Sullam volume leads us almost naturally to the last collection under review- in fact a small encyclopedia- edited by Sol Goldberg, Scott Ury, and Kalman Weiser. As befits such a volume, the list of contributors to Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism includes not only historians but also philosophers, psychologists, literary scholars, political scientists, jurists, and an anthropologist." (Shulamit Volkov, Studies in Contemporary Jewry, Vol. 33, 2023)

"Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism is meant to be a resource and a tool for instructors and researchers around the world who face this very dilemma. Its greatest innovation is in its design. Instead of producing a more usual historical survey of antisemitism through the ages, the editors have solicited a rich and diverse collection of short essays from leading scholars in the field about various concepts associated with the study of antisemitism." (Paul Hanebrink, Shofar - An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies, Vol. 40 (3), 2022)

"Rigorous and wholly engaging, Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism is the volume I was missing during my postgraduate degree in Jewish studies. ... From a student's perspective too, the work will certainly be a welcome addition to university reading lists ... . Key Concepts also makes a compelling intervention in the field. The twenty-one accessible and original chapters encourage curiosity and innovation over rigidity and prescription." (Emilie Wiedemann, Shofar - An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies, Vol. 40 (3), 2022)

"The great gain of the volume is that it has brought Antisemitism research out of the epistemic black hole into which the idea of eternal Antisemitism or of the longest hatred has pushed it and threatens to push it again and again. By placing Antisemitic thought and action in their respective contexts, illuminating the constellations in the occurrence of Antisemitism and determining its ambiguities and ruptures, the volume can sharpen the historical judgment of Antisemitism research, make Antisemitism more clearly comprehensible and thus also better combatable." (Ulrich Wyrwa, Quest. Issues in Contemporary Jewish History, Issue 21, October, 2022)

"Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism ... stands out as such a profound contribution: it sees inquiry as the key to unpacking antisemitism rather than narrow interpretations of potential solutions. ... Key Concepts in the Study of Antisemitism is better poised for experts and scholars in the field looking for a field guide to help in study ... ." (Shane Burley, Journal of Social Justice, Vol. 10, 2022)
"The volume is ... directed towards scholars of all disciplines studying antisemitism. This is a strength that makes the anthology an important contribution which promotes cross-disciplinary scholarship. For scholars of both the past and of the present, this work presents insightful historical overviews as well as well-grounded explanations of concepts that yield a solid foundation for further research. ... will be used by researchers and students alike to orientate the many concepts that circulate in the study of antisemitism(s)." (Jens Carlesson Magalhães, Nordisk Judaistik, Vol. 33 (1), 2022)
"None of its twenty-two contributions runs more than fifteen pages, making each readily digestible. Moreover, there is no redundancy among them. Even someone long engaged in the study of antisemitism could certainly learn from it. ... I can also think of numerous times in the past when I wish this book had been available. Admittedly, before opening Key Concepts one may wonder what is left to be said about anti- semitism. Quite a lot, it turns out." (Robert E. Blobaum, H-Net Reviews, h-net.org, September, 2021)
