Antisemītisms un tā izpausmes Latvijā
註釋Pt. 1 (pp. 11-62) presents a brief history of antisemitism from the ancient period to the present. Pt. 2 (pp. 63-173) deals with antisemitism in Latvia from the early 14th to the 20th centuries. An influx of Jews to Latvia after 1881 was resented by some sectors of the population, who adopted Russian antisemitic ideologies. The Republic (1918-40) conducted a tolerant policy toward the Jews. However, the depression of 1929-33 brought about a rise in antisemitism, manifested in particular in the anti-Jewish press. The Soviet occupation of 1940-41 intensified anti-Jewish feelings in Latvia. In 1941, the Nazi occupiers formed Latvian auxiliary units comprised mainly of members of the prewar pro-Nazi Perkonkrusts, who assisted in carrying out the Holocaust in Latvia. Dwells on the Nazi and pro-Nazi antisemitic propaganda in wartime Latvia, as well as antisemitism during the second Soviet occupation (1945-90), often disguised as anti-Zionism. In the restored Republic of Latvia antisemitism still exists: extremist organizations are active, anti-Jewish articles can be found in the press, and acts of vandalism have been perpetrated against Jews.
