Reflections on Anti-Semitism

The book critically examines the use of the accusation of 'anti-Semitism' as a tool in the context of Israel's policies towards Palestinians, particularly in France. Alain Badiou and Eric Hazan challenge the pervasive narrative of 'anti-Semitism is everywhere,' while Ivan Segre critiques 'reactionary philo-Semitism' that conflates Jewish interests with Western democracy. Segre advocates for a universalist perspective, aiming to protect Jewish tradition from Zionist misinterpretation. Shlomo Sand's preface adds insight into the manipulation of this racially charged accusation.
