‘Capitalism, the nation and societal corrosion: notes on “left-wing antisemitism”’

This essay aims to contribute to a better understanding of the concept
of ‘left-wing antisemitism’. It points to ‘anti-imperialism’, i.e. the
nationalist, often culturalist, resistance to the global spread of the
capitalist mode of production, as a crucial context of contemporary
antisemitism in which the boundaries between ‘right-wing’ and ‘leftwing’ are often blurred. The main contention is that the dialectic of
capitalism and emancipation is central to understanding antisemitism:
the fact that capitalism itself creates the conditions of, and the means
for, overcoming capitalism produces the space of confusion in which
the concept of ‘left-wing antisemitism’ emerges.
