The results of a recent government-funded anti-Semitism poll in Spain proved to be an effort to address the phenomenon in the country by simply pretending it doesn’t exist.

On the eve of Rosh Hashana, Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos presented results of the first sociological study on anti-Semitism in Spain. “Public opinion in Spain is not anti- Semitic,” he declared.

Dr. Small will speak about contemporary antisemitism. He will focus on the rise of radical Islamism as a social movement, and how this social movement is using genocidal antisemitism as a strategic weapon not only against Israel and Jews, but also the “West”. Dr. Small will also discuss the response of the “West” to this form of global antisemitism, with a focus on the “academic world”.

Many countries have implemented annual Holocaust commemoration events and educational programs on the Holocaust. However, antisemitism is on the rise and in fact often voiced with references to the Holocaust. Jews are accused of exploiting ‘the Holocaust’ while perpetrating a Holocaust-like genocide against the Pal-estinians and Jews and Israelis are inappropriately compared to Nazis. Previous research suggests that such tropes are common in Europe and that many Euro-peans believe that Jews try to take advantage of their status as victims during the Nazi era. However, no cross-country research has been done to estimate similarities and differences of this problem.
This international symposium explores the relation between specific perceptions of the Holocaust and antisemitism, and presents and discusses upcoming re-search projects on this topic. Several country specific case studies will be pre-sented and discussed in a cross-country perspective: How are Jews and the Holocaust perceived in different countries? What are the notions of the Holocaust and Jews which allow individuals or groups to voice antisemitic resentments with references to the Holocaust? Who is perceived to have perpetrated the Holocaust? How do the relations between antisemitism and the perception of the Holocaust in public and private discourses and at Holocaust commemoration events differ in the countries that were studied?

Antisemitismo en España: Una encuesta para negar un problema

Por Robin Stoller y Alejandro Baer*

Published in: Revista Raíces Raíces 85 – año XXIV – Invierno de 2010-2011

En la víspera del año nuevo judío, el pasado 9 de septiembre, el Ministro de Asuntos Exteriores Miguel Angel Moratinos presentaba en rueda de prensa los resultados del primer estudio sociológico sobre antisemitismo en España. Según el Ministro Moratinos: “la opinión pública en España no es antisemita”. Los datos del estudio indican lo contrario y la Federacion de Comunidades Judías y el Movimiento contra la Intolerancia ve “resultados altamente preocupantes” (ver comunicado en observatorioantisemitismo.fcje.org/). Pero no solo los datos que no se han hecho públicos en la presentación a la prensa son preocupantes. El desarrollo del estudio, los métodos empleados, los resultados y su presentación transmiten una imagen lamentable de cómo se ha abordado en España el problema del antisemitismo. Continue reading →
