France, a Laboratory of Global Antisemitism(s)?
France is the European country with the largest Jewish population. Jews have lived here before the birth of France as a kingdom and it is in France that Jews were first emancipated. Although more than 75 000 Jews from France were deported to extermination camps, most of the survivors remained after 1945.
Today, France faces various forms of violent antisemitism, including murders. What do these forms of hate have in common with the past, including the Dreyfus Affair and the Vichy regime? Is there a specificity of French antisemitism? How globalized are contemporary antisemitic dynamics?
