ANT 295-01 - Special Topci: Lenses on Antisemitism/Anti-Semitism4 credits (Spring)
This course examines themes informing anti-Jewish attitudes channeled into a “new anti-Semitism” focused exclusively on Jewish nationality and nationalism, terms to be explored during this semester. Cumulatively, the readings provide a loose overview of theological, racial, social and political anti-Semitism. Political anti-Semitism offers up important corollary questions concerning the relationship(s) between identities, power and knowledge, the consequences of globalization on stereotypes and (mis)representation of people/places, and importantly, the role and political consequences of academic activism.
Prerequisite: Second-year standing.
Instructor: Gibel Mevorach
