Descrizione

lxxiv, 421 pages. Bibliography, index and endnotes. "The Culture of Critique (CofC) was originally published in 1998. It described how Jewish intellectuals initiated and advanced a number of important intellectual and political movements during the 20th century. I argue that these movements are attempts to alter Western societies in a manner that would neutralize or end anti-Semitism and enhance the prospects for Jewish group community either in an overt or in a semi-cryptic manner." - Preface. "This first paperback edition attampts to answer some criticisms leveled against CofC. I also discuss issues including Jewish involvement in Communism, the emergence of the Holocaust as a central cultural icon in Western societies, Jewish invovlement in the U.S. media, and the role of Jewish organizations in censoring the Internet." - back cover.
