With a new preface by Michael Walzer Jean-Paul Sartre's book is a brilliant portrait of both anti-Semite and Jew, written by a non-Jew and from a non-Jewish point of view. Nothing of the anti-Semite either in his subtle form as a snob, or in his crude form as a gangster, escapes Sartre's sharp eye, and the whole problem of the Jew's relationship to the Gentile is examined in a concrete and living way, rather than in terms of sociological abstractions.… (más)
In questo saggio sull'antisemitismo Sartre denuncia le occulte ragioni psicologiche che hanno portato alle stragi degli ebrei, analizzando il problema da un punto di vista storico, ontologico e sociale, e della mentalità delle persone affette da pregiudizi raziali. ( )
I'm not sorry I read this, but I wouldn't read it again. It took me an awfully long time, and I've been reading it in installments for months. Sartre writes well and interestingly, but doesn't seem to have much of a basis for his theories. He talks at length on a subject he knows little about, it would seem. The book left me with distinctly mixed feelings, and towards the end I got rather fed up of his repeated ramblings and finished the book quickly. I'm not sure whether I now want to attempt to read any of his other books or not. ( )

If a man attributes all or part of his own misfortunes and those of his country to the presence of Jewish elements in the community, if he proposes to remedy this state of affairs by depriving the Jews of certain of their rights, by keeping them out of certain economic and social activities, by expelling them from the country, by exterminating all of them, we say that he has anti-Semitic opinions.

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

Not one Frenchman will be secure so long as a single Jew—in France or in the world at large—can fear for his life.
