Philosemitism, Antisemitism and 'the Jews'

Exploring the complex dynamics of Jewish and non-Jewish relations, this work honors the contributions of Rev. Dr. James Parkes, a trailblazer in the field. It examines how legislative and socio-cultural exclusion shapes the self-identity of dominant societies. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach, the book features insights from scholars across history, theology, political philosophy, legal theory, and literary studies from both sides of the Atlantic and Israel, offering a comprehensive understanding of philosemitism and antisemitism.
