Jewish Identity After the Second World WarDescribes a sociological survey conducted by the authors in Romania, the Netherlands, and Curaçao, ca. 1994-97. In each country the respondents were 20 Jews aged 18-35 who answered a questionnaire consisting of 170 questions. The aim of the survey was to analyze the respondents' Jewish identity (in five components as defined by Ido Abram) and especially their subjective perception of antisemitism in their countries. The results show that antisemitism is manifested in all three countries, with a higher level perceived in Romania, while in the Netherlands and in Curaçao the levels were comparable. Antisemitism in Romania focuses on scapegoating the Jews for the political, social, and economic problems of the country as well as rejection of Jewish leftist views and of cosmopolitanism. In Curacao it is based on resentment of the wealth of the Jews, and in the Netherlands on criticism of Israeli politics. Pp. 113-139 contain diagrams and tables. |
