New online journal available through Library Online

Library Services are pleased to announce that we subscribed to a new online journal. The Journal of Contemporary Antisemitism (JCA),  is one of the few journals exclusively dedicated to the analysis of antisemitism, focuses on the multiple and changing manifestations of antisemitism in the contemporary world. The main interest is in the post-Holocaust era, although submissions may include relevant empirical studies dealing with the 19th or early 20th century. Specifically, the focus is on 21st century forms of antisemitism, including but not limited to, antisemitism in the Islamic world, in Europe, on the left and the right of the political spectra, secular antisemitism, antisemitism in the church, and anti-Zionism.

Scholars from all disciplines across the social sciences and humanities can submit: 1) original research articles reporting qualitative or quantitative research; 2) literature reviews; 3) conceptual or theoretical articles; 4) commentaries; 5) book reviews.

Overseen by an international team of editors, this rigorously peer-reviewed journal aims to provide a forum in which scholars from diverse political and intellectual backgrounds can analyse, debate, and formulate effective responses to the ever-evolving and insidious threat of antisemitism.

The Library has subscribed to this from the first volume, 2018. Access is through Library Online

If anyone would like to add this journal, or individual articles to their Reading Lists Online (RLO’s), please get in touch with your subject librarian who will be happy to help you with this.
