Where possible, he avoids judgemental discourse about antisemitism and emphasizes how Jewish thinkers have been participants, together with their Christian counterparts, in forming western self-understanding. In an approximately chronological order, he shows how the ‘underlying theological template’ of Jewish purpose, both in Jewish messianism and Christian millenarianism, has profoundly influenced modern thought, both religious and secular. The biblical model of the Jews as chosen people strongly influenced British and Dutch thought in the seventeenth century. Jewish purpose was of central interest to the Enlightenment, for good and ill; the French Revolution and the ‘progressive’ change of the nineteenth century led to further redefinitions of ‘what Jews were for’. Nationalism had its own effect, both in terms of Zionism and the various non-nationalist Jewish responses. At the same time, forms of normalization (including Zionism) proposed how Jews could fulfil their purpose by ‘fitting in’. Throughout the book, the dialectic between Jewish chosenness, particularity and difference on the one hand and, on the other, the claim that the Jews were chosen precisely to proclaim, and practise, universal values of ethics and social justice, frames a fascinating account of the ongoing debates about Jewish purpose. Sutcliffe rightly reminds us that the more inclusive, outward-looking, universalist model of Jewish purpose still has much cogency, despite being overshadowed of late by a narrower, inward-looking definition focused on the Holocaust and Israel.KEYWORDS: Christian ZionismJewish exceptionalismJewish purposeJewish universalismmessianismZionism Notes1 Salo Baron, ‘Ghetto and emancipation: shall we revise the traditional view?’, Menorah Journal, vol. 14, no. 6, 1928, 515–26 (526) (cited in Sutcliffe, 156).2 Eleanor Beardsley, ‘Alarm grows in France over anti-Semitic violence’, NPR Report, 3 May 2018, available online at www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2018/05/03/599515300/alarm-grows-in-france-over-anti-semitic-violence (viewed 3 August 2023).3 Robert Wistrich, Antisemitism: The Longest Hatred (New York: Pantheon 1992); Robert Wistrich, A Lethal Obsession: Anti-Semitism from Antiquity to the Global Jihad (New York: Random House 2010); David Nirenberg, Anti-Judaism: The Western Tradition (New York: Norton 2014).4 See Antony Lerman, Whatever Happened to Antisemitism?

{"title":"Identification of Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase 9 (PARP9) as a Potent Suppressor for <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> Infection.","authors":"Zhenyu Zhu, Shufeng Weng, Fen Zheng, Qi Zhao, Ying Xu, Jiaxue Wu","doi":"10.1007/s43657-023-00112-2","DOIUrl":"10.1007/s43657-023-00112-2","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>ADP-ribosylation is a reversible and dynamic post-translational modification mediated by ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs). Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) are an important family of human ARTs. ADP-ribosylation and PARPs have crucial functions in host-pathogen interaction, especially in viral infections. However, the functions and potential molecular mechanisms of ADP-ribosylation and PARPs in <i>Mycobacterium</i> infection remain unknown. In this study, bioinformatics analysis revealed significantly changed expression levels of several PARPs in tuberculosis patients compared to healthy individuals. Moreover, the expression levels of these PARPs returned to normal following tuberculosis treatment. Then, the changes in the expression levels of PARPs during <i>Mycobacterium</i> infection were validated in Tohoku Hospital Pediatrics-1 (THP1)-induced differentiated macrophages infected with <i>Mycobacterium</i> model strains bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells infected with <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i> (Ms), respectively. The mRNA levels of PARP9, PARP10, PARP12, and PARP14 were most significantly increased during infection, with corresponding increases in protein levels, indicating the possible biological functions of these PARPs during <i>Mycobacterium</i> infection. In addition, the biological function of host PARP9 in <i>Mycobacterium</i> infection was further studied. PARP9 deficiency significantly increased the infection efficiency and intracellular proliferation ability of Ms, which was reversed by the reconstruction of PARP9. Collectively, this study updates the understanding of changes in PARP expression during <i>Mycobacterium</i> infection and provides evidence supporting PARP9 as a potent suppressor for <i>Mycobacterium</i> infection.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s43657-023-00112-2.</p>","PeriodicalId":46766,"journal":{"name":"Patterns of Prejudice","volume":"40 1","pages":"158-170"},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2023-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11169154/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80910798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They infringe the fundamental right in Article 3.3, that is, the right not to be racially discriminated against, the fundamental rights of human dignity (Article 1.1) and human equality (Article 3.1), as well as the constitutional right to be a German citizen regardless of one’s skin colour (Article 116). It argues that the terms are a form of skin-colour racism in that the police carry out their work—investigations, searches, inquiries and so on—on the basis of the perpetrator’s racialized phenotype. The categories basically stand for ‘Mediterranean looks’—even referred to in the past as the ‘Mediterranean race’—and phenotype: dark hair, dark eyes and so-called ‘skin type IV’, that is, ‘olive or brown skin’. They are the product of a tradition of racialized, exclusionary thinking that collides with the humanistic and democratic values of the Grundgesetz (Basic Law).","PeriodicalId":46766,"journal":{"name":"Patterns of Prejudice","volume":"56 1","pages":"123 - 156"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41396987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dekel and Özyürek describe the logic that drives this growth in accusations of antisemitism and argue that it can be explained by three shifts in the discourse of Holocaust memory: first, from Holocaust memory to antisemitism; second, from antisemitism’s German perpetrators to designated Others; and third, from guilt and responsibility to shame.","PeriodicalId":46766,"journal":{"name":"Patterns of Prejudice","volume":"56 1","pages":"157 - 187"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41460965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dickinson, Tom Cowin","doi":"10.1080/0031322X.2023.2219167","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0031322X.2023.2219167","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT With an annual budget of nearly fifty million dollars and over five billion views on social media, PragerU is a central node in the production of misinformation and radicalization in the United States today. Despite this, it has received little-to-no attention in contemporary scholarship. This paper begins to correct this dangerous oversight by introducing PragerU to an academic audience as a powerful far-right institution. We build on Rebecca Lewis’s concept of the Alternative Influence Network to show that PragerU is a unique and sinister institution with the ability to draw together disparate parts of the American right, using immense financial resources and advertising reach to do so. At its core, we contend that PragerU functions as a legitimizing hub for the US far right. It creates for itself a veneer of legitimacy as a seemingly moderate, centrist educational organization, even appropriating the term ‘university’. PragerU then shares that legitimacy, serving as a hub that unites the right, bringing together Reaganite neoliberals, Bush-era neoconservatives, Tea Partiers, Trumpists and the contemporary alt-right under PragerU branding. Combined with its staggering reach and the structural features of social media platforms (‘suggested videos’, recommendations), PragerU acts as a gateway to the extreme right, and the first steps on the path to radicalization. As a result, we argue that it can no longer be ignored by scholars seeking to understand the far right in the United States, and should be treated as an essential area of study into right-wing radicalization and the spread of misinformation on social media today.","PeriodicalId":46766,"journal":{"name":"Patterns of Prejudice","volume":"56 1","pages":"95 - 122"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45965452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
