| Summary: | "Daniel Randall traces left antisemitism's origins to primitive concepts of capitalism that conflated Jews with captial; Stalinism's 'anti-cosmopolitan' and 'anti-Zionist' campaigns of the 1950s onwards; and a form of 'anti-imperialism' which designates any opposition to western imperialism, including Israel, as necessarily progressive. He argues that, far from representing a logical continuation or inevitable end-point of left-wing ideas, left antisemitism represents a distortion of them, and that by re-anchoring the socialist project in a class-struggle politics of solidarity and equality, the left can confront and overcome antisemitism within its own ranks." -- Back cover |
