Abstract:
Focuses on the Antisemitenbund in the Tyrol, and its demands, from 30 November 1919, for legal and economic restriction of the Jews. Discusses the student organizations and reactions to two incidents which caused an increase in antisemitic activities: a reading of works by Karl Kraus (1920) and the trial of a Latvian Jewish student (studying in Dresden) charged with the murder of his father during their tour in the Tyrol (1928-29). States that anti-Jewish feelings in contemporary Tyrol are a continuation of traditional antisemitism and can easily flare up, as it did in the period discussed among various parties which were dissatisfied mainly by the political situation in Austria and the territorial arrangements after World War I, including the cession of South Tyrol to Italy. The hostile reactions and irredentist feelings were directed toward the Jews, who were blamed for all ills.
