Abstract:
Discusses antisemitism in Germany in the Wilhelmine period (1888-1918), and reactions of the Centralverein Deutscher Staatsbürger Jüdischen Glaubens (CV), established in 1893. Notes that assimilationist Jews, a large part of the Jewish population, opposed the establishment and activities of this group. Leaders of the CV decided to fight official discrimination, and allied themselves with progressive parties, which had some Jewish representatives in the parliament. Members of the progressive parties regularly raised issues such as discrimination against Jewish soldiers, lawyers, and doctors. In 1905 the Verband der Deutschen Juden pressure group was established to further Jewish education, and this group was also aided by the progressive parties, but these parties began to lose power to the Social Democrats shortly before World War I.
