Abstract This paper looks at this book which provides an in-depth study of anti-Semitism through the ages. It shows how the essenstial idea of anti-Semitism was the same at different periods in history but its style and form changed. It shows how at some stages it was based on religious reasons, others on economic reasons while some times simply on fear of the "other". It also looks at the most recent type of anti-Semitism in the form of anti-Zionism.
From the Paper "Part One of this book is entitled ?From the Cross to the Swastika.? This section begins in antiquity with the roots of anti-Semitism beginning in Hellenistic times in Greece and later in ancient Rome. The Jewish Diaspora in the Hellenistic world is described as the Jewish persistence at maintaining their own monotheistic faith, keeping dietary restrictions in accordance with that faith, their disassociation with Gentiles and their contention that the Jewish faith was made up of God?s chosen ones (Wistrich, 4). Greek literature includes passages that express anti-Semitic attitudes against the exclusivity that the Jews themselves created. The reaction of the Hellenistic people was that the Jewish people?s wish to remain separate from their culture was best translated into an expression of ?hatred of the gods? (Wistrich, 5)."

Race and Hatred, 2007. This paper analyzes the books "Race Matters" by Cornel West and "The Souls of Black Folk" by W.E.B. DuBois. 998 words (approx. 4.0 pages), 2 sources, APA, $ 35.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper compares and contrasts the two works, "Race Matters" by Cornel West and "The Souls of Black Folk" by W.E.B. DuBois, focusing on the similarity of black experience nearly 100 years apart. The paper discusses the theme of hatred in these two works and looks at whether blacks and whites can learn more understanding and tolerance. The paper explains that Du Bois seems optimistic this can occur, but West, writing in modern times, is more convinced that nothing but hatred and misunderstanding will exist between blacks and whites for the foreseeable future.
From the Paper "Hatred has marked the black experience in America since southern planters first imported slaves into the country. For many years, the whites hated and distrusted the blacks, and yet relied on them for their manual labor. Later, the hatred translates into distrust on both sides. Author W.E.B. Du Bois notes, "With other black boys the strife was not so fiercely sunny: their youth shrunk into tasteless sycophancy, or into silent hatred of the pale world about them and mocking distrust of everything white.""

Cold Hatred, 2007. A discussion of "Where is the Voice Coming From?" by Eudora Welty. 1,304 words (approx. 5.2 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 44.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper discusses how Eudora Welty introduces her readers to the mind of a sociopath killer in her short story "Where is the Voice Coming From?". The paper discusses how the author strikingly illustrates the anatomy of racial hatred. The paper examines the short story that is a chilling account of a cold and calculated murder set in the South during the 1960s; the murder of a black man who had been campaigning for equal rights in the town of Thermopylae. The paper shows how the story is written in first person from the killer's perspective, without divulging his name, to allow Welty to retain a sense of moral distance from the character, who deserves no humanization or sympathy that a name would confer.
From the Paper "The narrator is a resentful, spiteful man who murders Roland Summers because he hates seeing African-Americans achieving economic parity with whites, let alone superceding poor whites in the South. Throughout "Where is this Voice Coming From," the narrator reveals his resentful attitude. He says that the black man lives "pretty close to where I live," emphasis on the "I" to emphasize his hatred for simply living in the same region as black people. The narrator's resentment grows deeper and becomes more directly connected to economic parity. For example, he states, "his street's been paved," refers to his "new white car," and his "paved driveway.""

Abstract This paper examines Amy Chua's discussion on how markets, democracy and ethnic hatred lead to genocide among minority groups within national social orders as expressed in her work, "World on Fired: How Exporting Free Market Democracy Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global Instability". The paper explains Chua's contention that as nations have attempted to open their markets to free trade the wealth of these countries has been allocated to a specific population that fails to meet the needs of the impoverished within society. As this occurs there is a rising hatred among the citizenry who comprise the majority of the population who seek out those in the minority and slaughter those of the oppressing class.

The paper refers to the movie, "American History X", Malcolm X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the Declaration on Independence, and the Brown vs. Board of Education on Topeka case. The paper talks about how people learn to hate and why people who have racial hatred are flawed in their reasoning for it. It explores why we would should not hate, especially in a place like America and how it goes against all the values Americans hold dear. This paper also addresses the issue of terrorism.
From the Paper "In American History X, Derek Vinyard was overwhelmed with hatred against all people of another race or ethnicity. He had a hatred against any expression of diversity. Race and ethnicity are simply words used to describe characteristics of people, and diversity is the word used to talk about the differences in these characteristics. Race, ethnicity, and diversity are just words and descriptions; they do not express the character of a person which it what really matters. Race is drawn essentially among color lines and color does not say much about a person. Race concerns the differing physical characteristics between people whose ancestors stem from different geographical origins. The three main races of the world are the Caucasian who are originally European and have white skin, the Negroid race, which originated in Africa and have black skin, and the Mongoloid race that has skin that falls somewhere between black and white. Race can also describe differences in facial features, body size, limb proportion, skull measurements, and hair color."

Introduction
Thesis
Analysis
Conclusion
From the Paper "Ethnic stereotypes have been a powerful subject for theatre because of the emotional and psychological effects that it produces in the readers. Often ethnic stereotypes have been portrayed in various forms which have been helpful to identify and expose the social maladies present in the society. Perhaps the reason why social stereotypes have been described in various manners is that it often brings out different perspectives of racial discrimination and the responses of the affected groups towards racial distinction. The play Funnyhouse of a Negro by Adrienne Kennedy is an effort in this direction and describes the mental and emotional stress that the central character, Sarah has to undergo because of her mixed lineage."

Abstract Examines anti-American hatred of many Islamic States of the world. Offers various explanations as to why anti-American animosity has developed. The threat of modernity and secularization posed by the U.S. to Muslims. The Persian Gulf War. American support for Israel. View of Islamic fundamentalists and extremists that the U.S. is "Satan."
From the Paper "An Exploration of Muslim Animosity Toward the U.S.
The events of September 11, 2001, served to confirm what American government officials and many private citizens have long recognized: within the Islamic States of the world, there are many, many Muslims whose feelings toward the United States can only be described as hatred, contempt, and disgust. The question to be considered in this report is why this anti-American animosity has developed. Various explanations have been offered, among which are the belief that America has unfairly supported Israel and ignored the interests of the Palestinians (Sheler, 2001).
Other explanations of this phenomenon have been discussed by Sultan Shahin (1995) who argues that Islam views the West as an excessively secular civilization in which genuine religious feeling ..."

Why the Holocaust Happened in Germany, 2007. This paper explores the idea that the Holocaust was not an exclusive event chosen by the German people due to their hatred of Jews. 1,521 words (approx. 6.1 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 50.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines Raul Hilberg and Christopher Browning's understanding of how the Holocaust happened. The paper discusses their claim that the Holocaust was not an exclusive event chosen by the German people due to their hatred for Jews, but was due to a combination of factors including the administrative smoothness of the operation, the impersonal quality of the killing and the belief that it had to do with the frailty of human beings in general. The paper concludes by refuting the argument presented by Daniel Goldhagen that the Holocaust was an exclusively German event. The paper uses MLA style footnotes but does not append a bibliography.
From the Paper "The pivotal question to the debate on the Holocaust is whether it could have happened only in Germany by ethnically German people, or whether it was a set of various factors that would produce the same results regardless of the ethnicity of the people. Hilberg argues that being German was irrelevant, and that such a thing could happen in any society even today. The Holocaust was not executed by the German people because of some deep-seeded German hatred for Jews, but instead was able to occur due to the vast German bureaucratic system. The "final solution" did not consist of a single department staffed with specialists in destruction, but instead it was a multi-pronged operation of a highly decentralized apparatus, which included all parts of German society, its ministries, armed forces, party formations, and industry."

Justifying Terror, 2002. A biography of the life of Osama Bin Laden and an analysis of his hatred for Americans. 2,368 words (approx. 9.5 pages), 10 sources, APA, $ 72.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper evaluates the life of terrorist Osama Bin Laden in an attempt to understand the roots of his hatred for America and why he attacked on September 11th 2001. It provides a biography of his life from his introduction to Islamic fundamentalism to the formation of his Al-Qaeda organization and how he began with his resentment of the U.S. presence in Saudi Arabia before and after the Gulf War. It examines his support for the Palestinian cause and analyzes whether it is because of true anger towards the U.S. and Israel or whether it is propaganda in an attempt to gain more supporters.
From the Paper "With the start of the Gulf War in 1990, bin Laden became a nuisance to the Saudi government. He was angered by the presence of U.S. troops in the region, and he felt he could do just as good a job fighting the Iraqi?s with his well trained Al-Qaeda fighters. He became an outspoken critic of the Saudi royal family and finally, in 1991, after already taking away his travel rights a year earlier, the royal family stripped bin Laden of his Saudi citizenship. Consequently, he took his views, and his organization to Sudan, where a hard line Islamic militant government had just come to power. Angered by the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the United Nations sanctions on Iraq, and most of all, the postwar presence of U.S. troops in the Muslim holy land of Saudi Arabia, Osama bin Laden went from angry observer to active aggressor."

From the Paper "American Imperialism as a Cause of September 11?
Perhaps the two most frequently asked questions after the terrorist attacks of September 11, were "Why do these people hate America so?" and "Are we somehow partially to blame for inciting terrorists?" There are no simple, pat answers. But, scanning some of the letters to the editors in this weeks TIME Magazine (Oct 22) might shed some light on the issue:
"The problem is that U.S. citizens have little reciprocal feeling for U.S. engineered human tragedy elsewhere. The U.S. needs to be aware that even among the countries is considers its subordinates and even within affluent nations the U./S. considers its compliant..."

From the Paper "The term ?propaganda? is defined as the organized attempt to influence the attitudes and opinions of others. Propaganda, thus, refers to the use of mass persuasion techniques.
Adolph Hitler, leader of NAZI Germany, was acknowledged to be a skilled propagandist. Hitler used his propagandistic skills as one of his leadership tools. Some people advance a proposition that holds that Hitler?s leadership, together with his use of propagandistic skills, caused the adverse outcomes of the Second World War to be more severe than otherwise would have been the case. On its face, this proposition is absurd because Hitler?s leadership and the use of ..."
