Summary "Anti-Semitism in the United States: Its History and Causes" by Rabbi Lee J. Levinger is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The text explores the development and factors contributing to anti-Semitism in the U.S., particularly following World War I. It examines the paradox of a nation founded on principles of freedom and tolerance that still harbors anti-Semitic sentiments, delving into the psychological and social dynamics that underlie this intolerance. The opening of the work begins with an introductory statement that sets the stage for exploring the anti-Semitic movement in America, describing it as a contradiction in a country that values freedom and tolerance. Levinger presents a theoretical framework for understanding group psychology and its implications for social dynamics, emphasizing the importance of studying group interactions. He asserts that understanding the origins of anti-Semitism in the U.S. requires a comprehensive look at American social history and the evolution of tolerance and intolerance within its groups. Overall, the introduction lays out a complex foundation for analyzing the social attitudes toward Jews in America, suggesting a multifaceted exploration to follow.
