The concept of racialization and the dichotomy of antisemitism and racism
Das Projekt beschäftigt sich mit der Beziehung zwischen den Begriffen »Rassismus« und »Antisemitismus«. Antisemitismus kann als »eine Form des Rassismus« betrachtet werden (wie es in den meisten klassischen Studien zum Thema Rassismus üblich war), ohne ihn dabei als »ein Partikulares« unter den Rassismus als »das Allgemeine« zu subsumieren (und damit zu trivialisieren), solange »Rasse« in einer antiessentialistischen (oder antirealistischen) Weise als gesellschaftlicher Prozess der »Rassifizierung« verstanden wird (wie es antirassistische WissenschaftlerInnen erstmals in den 1980er Jahren vorschlugen). Um die Kritik des Antisemitismus wieder in das Studium und die Kritik des Rassismus einzubringen, muss ein breitgefächerteres Verständnis des Rassismus als einer gesellschaftlichen Form wiedergewonnen werden, das sich weder ausschließlich auf Farbcodes und den kolonialen Kontext ihrer Entstehung konzentriert noch die populistischen, scheinbar antihegemonialen oder »antielitären« Formen des Rassismus ignoriert.
