Abstract

The volume Anti-Semitism and Gender (Antisemitismus und Geschlecht) published by the group A.G. Gender-Killer collects studies about the meaning of the category of gender in anti-Semitic discourses since the nineteenth century. They share the thesis that sees a constitutive connection between anti-Semitism and gender constructs. The studies attempt to bridge university and politics, theory and practice by beginning with the necessity of an anti-fascist engagement in society. Their results prove that anti-Semitic sexual fantasies and gender images are both immediately recallable and potent today.
