Abstract:
Declares that antisemitism and "völkisch" ideology were not just two sides of the same coin, although the latter came into being in an attempt to forge a unifying platform for the diverging and conflicting trends in the antisemitic movement in the early Wilhelmine period. Describes these trends, their leading representatives (Wagner, Dühring, Förster, Glagau, Fritsch, Böckel, etc.) and their mutual influences and rivalries. Personal ambitions led to the consolidation of the movement into two political parties: Fritsch's "Deutsch-soziale Partei" and Böckel's more conservative "Deutsche Reformpartei". In 1895 these united in the "Deutsch-soziale Reformpartei", only to split again in 1900. All of these parties not only demanded the repeal of Jewish emancipation and called for restrictive legislation against Jews, but also appealed to a wider public by proposing to strengthen German institutions and social solidarity in order to eliminate Jewish influence.
