Abstract:
Analyzes the results of a telephone poll conducted in 1992 in Moscow. Contests the conclusions of Gudkov and Levinson (from their surveys of October 1990 and March 1992) that the population of the former Soviet Union is favorable toward Jews and that popular antisemitism in the republics is declining. Shows that, in comparison to the same indicators in the USA and Canada, Muscovites display antisemitic attitudes much more than do North Americans. Shows, also, that in Moscow the belief in the global Zionist conspiracy against Russia correlates with common conservative attitudes; that aged persons are more antisemitic than younger ones; that the more educated are less antisemitic; and that the main ethnic minorities in Moscow (Ukrainians, Tatars, Belorussians) are, as a rule, more antisemitic than Russians.
