Editorial Review

Booklist Review of Anti-Semitism: Hatred on the Rise

Cover: Anti-Semitism: Hatred on the Rise

In this comprehensive yet unfortunately timely examination of antisemitism, Blohm opens with a lengthy history, from its early roots to its increase in the twenty-first century, of what’s been called “the oldest hatred.” Subsequent chapters—with straightforward, detailed text that integrates authoritative facts, statistics, and quotes—focus on historical and ongoing violence and intimidation against Jews and what’s currently driving the rise in antisemitic attitudes and behavior. While the author describes the horrific tragedy of the Holocaust as background information, the emphasis is on more recent incidents of antisemitism in the U.S. In the process, Blohm considers such issues as conspiracy theories, social media as a vehicle for spreading misinformation and hatred against Jews, the country’s political climate, and global events such as the October 2023 attack on Israel. A mix of historical and more current photos capture contributing factors and the aftermath of antisemitism, while sidebars add eye-opening context (e.g., auto magnate Henry Ford’s influence on Adolf Hitler). Concluding this important source for research is a chapter that addresses taking action against antisemitism.
