Antisemitism Worldwide: Report for 2023.

Show summary
The Scandinavian countries regularly rank among the most free and most democratic societies in the world. Norway, Sweden and Denmark are known for egalitarian values and high levels of social trust and cohesion. Moreover, these nations have stood out with their high per-capita reception of asylum seekers and refugees. Scandinavia appears to be one of the world’s more hospitable places for ethnic, religious, and other minorities. But how hospitable are they for Jews when antisemitism raises its head?
The extent of Scandinavian commitment to diversity and inclusion was put to a strong test in the final months of 2023, when the October 7 massacre and the ensuing Israel-Hamas war triggered a wave of antisemitism that rattled Jewish communities. Antisemitic manifestations and their impact on Jewish communities appear to have been relatively similar in the three Scandinavian countries. The political response, however, varied significantly. While Swedish and Danish government leaders have demonstrated forceful and visible verbal support for their Jewish minorities, as well as taken concrete policy actions, the Norwegian political leadership has been markedly less vocal in its statements and reactions.

Show summary
The Jewish Pathfinders project is a remarkable intervention by the Jewish Community of Oslo, designed to familiarize young Norwegians with Jews and thereby reduce the potential for antisemitism in tomorrow’s society. The project is worthy of attention because of its apparent success and its potential role as a model for similar interventions in other countries and contexts.

Show summary
Det hevdes ofte at det 21. århundret ble vitne til en dramatisk økning i omfanget av jødehat, og at dette er en «ny» antisemittisme som skiller seg fra middelalderens religiøse antijudaisme og den moderne epokens rasistiske antisemittisme ved at den kommer til uttrykk gjennom demonisering av Israel og sionismen. Påstanden er omstridt; en del vil hevde at prat om en ny antisemittisme er en avsporingstaktikk for å sverte dem som kritiserer Israels politikk. I denne artikkelen undersøker jeg dette spørsmålet nærmere. Først gir jeg et omriss av den ofte opphetede debatten som oppstod rundt spørsmålet om den nye antisemittismen på 2000-tallet. Deretter undersøker jeg hva tilgjengelig empiri om antisemittiske holdninger, hendelser, og jøders opplevde utsatthet kan fortelle oss om hvordan antisemittismen faktisk har utviklet seg de siste tiårene. Har det funnet sted en målbar økning, og i hvilken grad kan vi spore fremveksten av en «ny» antisemittisme knyttet til Israel-fiendtlighet? Og hvordan kan egentlig antisemittismen forklares?

Is there an East/West divergence in European Jews’ exposure to antisemitism?
Show summary
Around 1990, many considered antisemitism to be a “spent force” in Western countries such as the UK and the US. At the same time, Russian antisemitism was surging, leading to fears of pogroms and massive Jewish emigration. Yet there were no pogroms in Russia, and thirty years later, as this paper will argue, the situation had been turned on its head: a new divergence could be observed in terms of where Jews felt safe living and practicing as Jews. By 2020, Jews were anxiously concealing their identity not in Moscow or Vilnius, but in Western cities such as Paris, Berlin, and Copenhagen. Antisemitism seemed to be affecting Jews more severely in the West than in the East. How did this situation come about? This paper will outline the empirical evidence that allows us to speak of such a divergence at all, before moving on to discuss possible explanations.

On the ideological and cultural diversity of current antisemitism .
Right Now!.
Show summary
In May this year, the latest round of hostilities in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict set in motion a wave of antisemitic attacks targeting Jews in Europe and the US. A closer look at these incidents demonstrates the ideological and cultural diversity of current Jew-hatred. In order to understand this diversity, a broader historical perspective is helpful.

Breivik, tolerance, and the West’s decline: a Russian view.
Show summary
A recent piece in Rossiiskaia Gazeta, the Russian government’s official newspaper and one of Russia’s largest, portrays Norway as a country that, while nice in many ways, is unfortunately about to be capsized by a wave of multicultural tolerance set in motion by Breivik, the right-wing terrorist. This rather ludicrous charge is not new, but echoes previous and similarly bizarre commentary about the Breivik attacks in the mainstream Russian press.

Russian volunteers in Ukraine and defensive mobilization.
Show summary
Since Russia annexed Crimea and sent troops to bolster the Donetsk and Lugansk “People’s Republics” (the DNR and LNR) in Eastern Ukraine, thousands of Russian volunteers have traveled to the Donbass to take part in the fighting. While a few of them have teamed up with the Ukrainian side, the vast majority joined the irregular DNR/LNR forces. A recent Russian study asks what made these volunteers tick. The core motivation, the study claims, was a desire to defend one’s own people. As one would expect given the current domestic climate, the findings certainly suit the official story about the conflict. But that doesn’t mean they are wrong.

The strange decline of antisemitism in Russia.
Show summary
It will surprise no one that attacks on Jews occur in Russia. After all, this is the country that gave us the word pogrom. Yet it might surprise you to hear that the level of antisemitic violence in Russia, by all accounts, is quite low compared to Western Europe. Given the political climate in later years, shouldn’t we expect otherwise? Patriotic rallying, attacks against “foreign agents” and internal “fifth columnists”, rampant and officially sanctioned homophobia, a fortress mentality in which one in four say the country is “surrounded by enemies on all sides” — isn’t this fertile soil for a reinvigorated antisemitism?

Hitlers russiske gjenferd: Militant høyreekstremisme i det postsovjetiske Russland.
Show summary
Etter Sovjetunionens kollaps ble Russland vitne til fremveksten av Europas uten sammenlikning mest voldelige høyreekstreme bevegelse. Med terrorangrep, henrettelser av advokater og ekspertvitner og jihad-inspirerte halshugginger har russiske høyreekstreme drept mer enn 600 mennesker de siste ti år. Hvordan kan det ha seg at en slik bevegelse vokste seg så voldelig nettopp i Russland, et av de landene som ofret mest i kampen mot Nazi-Tyskland under annen verdenskrig?
