Exploring the concept of New Anti-Semitism, this book examines how a contemporary form of anti-Semitism has emerged in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It highlights the phenomenon as a political stance that arises from both the left and right, as well as from fundamentalist Islam, often manifesting as opposition to Zionism and Israel. The author argues that anti-Americanism and anti-globalization may serve as veiled expressions of anti-Semitic sentiment, prompting a critical discussion on the intersections of these ideologies.
