In Memoriam: Robert S. Wistrich, 1945–2015

Abstract

We are pleased to publish one of the last pieces that Robert Wistrich wrote, which is on antisemitism in France at the time of Alfred Dreyfus. It is published with an introductory essay by David Hirsh which looks at how the issues Wistrich highlights around the Dreyfus affair may be read in the contemporary context of the reemergence of antisemitism and populism into mainstream discourse. Keywords: Wistrich, Dreyfus, Anti-Zionism, Antisemitism, Anti-Semitism, Arendt
