Description

The emergence in Russia of the chauvinist antisemitic movement, Pamyat, in 1987 has startled Western society even as it has stirred deep fears and anxiety among Jews and democratic forces within Russia. How could a supposedly Communist society whose founder, V.I. Lenin, had rallied against racism and bigotry, give birth to a proto-fascist ideology and organization? This study aims to respond to the query. The roots of Pamyat's ideology are traced to the Tsarist Black Hundreds in the early part of the 20th century, to certain aspects of later Stalinism and to a virulent official Judeophobic propaganda campaign, masquerading as anti-Zionism, from 1967-1986. If the antisemitic campaign was finally halted on a state level by Mikhail Gorbachev, the social ground has already been fertilized for a populist and chauvinist Pamyat movement, emerging in 1987, which could exploit the much freer atmosphere of Glasnost to pursue a programme of hate. The earlier ideological roots could now openly flourish. Zionism was to become Pamyat's primary target. These nationalist and chauvinist forces remain vital elements in contemporary Russian society, inevitably inviting a profound sense of concern among Jews and the civilized community in general. Documentation provided within this book aims to reinforce that concern.
