內容簡介
Something has changed.
After the horrors of World War II, people everywhere believedthat it could never happen again, but today the evidence isunmistakable that anti-Semitism is dramatically on the rise oncemore. The torching of European synagogues, suicide terror inIsrael, the relentless comparison of the Israelis to Nazis, theparanoid post–September 11 Internet-bred conspiracy theories, theHolocaust-denial literature spreading throughout the Arab world,the calumny and violence erupting on American college campuses:Suddenly, a new anti-Semitism has become widespread, evenacceptable to some.
In this chilling and important new book, Ron Rosenbaum, author ofthe highly praised Explaining Hitler,brings together a collectionof powerful essays about the origin and nature of the newanti-Semitism. Paul Berman, Marie Brenner, David Brooks, HaroldEvans, Todd Gitlin, Jeffrey Goldberg, Bernard Lewis, David Mamet,Amos Oz, Cynthia Ozick, Frank Rich, Jonathan Rosen, Edward Said,Judith Shulevitz, Lawrence Summers, Jeffrey Toobin, and RobertWistrich are among the distinguished writers and intellectuals whograpple with painful questions: Why now? What is—or isn’t—new? Is asecond Holocaust possible, this time in the Middle East? How doesanti-Semitism differ from anti-Zionism?
These are issues too dangerous to ignore, too pressing to deny.Those Who Forget the Pastis an essential volume for understandingthe new bigotry of the twenty-first century.
