From Ambivalence to Betrayal
From Ambivalence to Betrayal is the first study to explore the transformation in attitudes on the Left toward the Jews, Zionism, and Israel since the origins of European socialism in the 1840s until the present. This pathbreaking synthesis reveals a striking continuity in negative stereotypes of Jews, contempt for Judaism, and negation of Jewish national self-determination from the days of Karl Marx to the current left-wing intellectual assault on Israel. World-renowned expert on the history of antisemitism Robert S. Wistrich provides not only a powerful analysis of how and why the Left emerged as a spearhead of anti-Israel sentiment but also new insights into the wider involvement of Jews in radical movements. There are fascinating portraits of Marx, Moses Hess, Bernard Lazare, Rosa Luxemburg, Leon Trotsky, and other Jewish intellectuals, alongside analyses of the darker face of socialist and Communist antisemitism. The closing section eloquently exposes the degeneration of leftist anti-Zionist critiques into a novel form of “anti-racist” racism.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn's 200 Years Together and the "Russian Question"
Solzhenitsyn's controversial two-volume book, published in Moscow in 2001-02, after his return to Russia, is based on a conservative nationalist ("patriotic") ideology that determined his approach to the role of Jews in Russian history. His Slavophile-influenced view of the Jews was essentially and unalterably a damaging one, which affected his "history" of Jewish-Russian relations. Focuses not on the problematic aspects of Solzhenitsyn's allegedly objective account, but rather on the way his reputation as a Russian prophet has led conservative Russians, including antisemites, to embrace his stereotypical imperial view of Russian history, to which Jews are considered as incapable of contributing positively. This aspect of the contemporary public debate about Jews reveals more about the problems of Russian identity than about the Jews. Solzhenitsyn failed to take into consideration the biases of his (often Jewish) sources. He also stressed the "Jewishness" of radicals who rejected their Jewish roots, including his arch-villains, the Bolsheviks.
The Anglican Church, Jews and British Multiculturalism
Present-day British multiculturalism stimulates ethnic and religious separatism and has proved to be a cover for the rise of radical Islam. The latter is now the main source of antisemitism in Britain. Discusses the politics of the Anglican Church, which at this time is advancing its dialogue with Islam to the detriment of its dialogue with Judaism. In the Anglican Church's discourse (in both British and Middle-Eastern chapters) anti-Judaic conceptions like replacement theology have reappeared, and the Church's anti-Zionism borders on antisemitism and justification of terrorism. Increasingly radical Islamists in Britain regard the Anglo-Jewish community as a legitimate and necessary target of violence in their war against the State of Israel.
