From Prejudice to Destruction - Anti-Semitism, 1700-1933
Job Katz presents a major reinterpretation of modern anti-Semitism that blends history of ideas with social analysis. He describes the process by which a set of negative ideas about the Jews gradually became transformed and then, around 1870, picked up so much social force as to result in the premeditated and systematic destruction of the Jewish people of Europe.
