Abstract:
A critique of Pierre-André Taguieff's "La nouvelle judéophobie". Argues that Taguieff fails to distinguish between anti-Israeli criticism and anti-Zionism/antisemitism within the European Left, which he caricaturizes and even diabolizes for presumably wanting to destroy Israel. Denounces Taguieff for labeling those Jews and Israelis who criticize the occupation and injustices committed against Palestinians as self-hating Jews. Does, however, agree with Taguieff's view that the association of all Jews with Israel is common within the Left and that the Left has remained passive in the face of antisemitic violence in France. Still, in Spain, for instance, Arabophobia far surpasses anti-Judaism as a social problem.
