Titulo original: Antisémitisme partout.
"Since the beginning of the War on Terror, Israel has become increasingly salient to imperial strategy and ever more aggressive in its policies toward the Palestinians. In this context, a key ideological weapon is the cynical accusation of "anti-Semitism." For historical reasons, this has been deployed most forcefully in France, and Alain Badiou and Eric Hazan caustically demolish the "anti-Semitism is everywhere" allegation, used to bludgeon opponents of the Israeli state and those who stand in solidarity with the banlieue youth. Ivan Segre undertakes a meticulous deconstruction of a rampant "reactionary philo-Semitism" that identifies Jewish interests with the "democratic West.""-- Provided by publisher.
"Since the inception of the 'War on Terror', Israel has become increasingly important to Western imperial strategy and ever more aggressive in its policies towards the Palestinians. A key ideological weapon in this development is the cynical accusation of 'anti-Semitism' to silence protest and dissent. For historical reasons, this has been deployed most forcefully in France, and in first of the two essays in this book French writers Alain Badiou and Eric Hazan demolish the 'anti-Semitism is everywhere' claim used to bludgeon critics of the Israeli state and those who stand in solidarity with the banlieue youth. In 'The Philo-Semitic Reaction', Ivan Segré undertakes a meticulous deconstruction of a rampant reactionary trend that identifies Jewish interests with the 'democratic' West. Segrâe aim is to uphold a universalist position and to defend Jewish tradition from Zionist ideological distortion"-- Provided by publisher.
