Libra Kitap 2013. New. Istanbul: Libra Kitap 2013 The official line that successive Turkish regimes have frequently repeated and which h firmly established itself in both Turkish and foreign public opinion is that the Republic of Turkey is one of those rare countries in which antisemitism h never taken root and in which Jews have thus lived for centuries within a tolerant atmosphere of peace and tranquility but it simply isn’t true Along with antisemitism are the conspiracy theories in which the ""Jew"" or the ""Zionist"" feature the main actors that are widely seen throughout Turkish society In fact this state of affairs is not only pervive but h even become ""normal"" to the point of banality so much so that in tends to draw no reaction from either the country’s intellectuals or politicians This book contains a collection of author’s published articles on the subject—a subject that h received no serious treatment in Turkey and such attempts to fill the gaping hole in our knowledge of this widespread yet rarely discussed phenomenon and such stands an indispensible source for those interested in Turkey and antisemitism 418 pp Libra Kitap unknown
