Anti-Alienism, Antisemitism and Anti-Zionism In 20th Century South Africa

Speaker: Dr. Milton Shain Affiliation: Director, Isaac & Jessie Kaplan Centre for Jewish Studies, University of Cape Town, South Africa Title: "Anti-Alienism, Antisemitism and Anti-Zionism In 20th Century South Africa" Location: Yale University, New Haven, CT Date: November 9, 2006 Description: Milton Shain notes that for many years, scholars have commented on the continuities, discontinuities, and contingencies of antisemitism through the ages, including: pagan and early Christian antisemitism, medieval and modern antisemitism, modern antisemitism and Nazism, and, more recently, antisemitism and anti-Zionism. He notes that while these debates are general in their focus, it is apparent that continuities, discontinuities, and contingencies are also discernible within national policies. The South African case in the twentieth century demonstrates continuities between anti-alienism at the turn of the century, the "Jewish Question" in the 1930s and early 1940s, and anti-Zionism during the latter part of the century.
