(Berlin/New York, N.Y.) – The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) and the Auschwitz Research Center on Hate, Extremism and Radicalization (ARCHER) at House 88 invite you to a webinar presentation of a new groundbreaking report, titled “The Role of Antisemitism in the Mobilization to Violence by Extremist and Terrorist Actors”, commissioned by the German Federal Foreign Office.
In honor of Holocaust Remembrance Day and the March of the Living in Auschwitz, Poland, Alexander Ritzmann, Senior Advisor of CEP will present the report and discuss its findings with Dr. Hans Jakob Schindler, Senior Director of CEP and ARCHER at House 88.
Analyzing developments in France, Germany, Hungary, Poland, and the United States, the study reveals how antisemitism is not merely a byproduct of extremist ideologies, but a core strategic tool used to recruit, radicalize, and justify violence across the ideological spectrum—from right-wing and Islamist to left-wing extremist actors. The report also makes concrete recommendations for policy makers.
The webinar will be conducted in English via Zoom.
