Abstract
This study was commissioned by the Tom
Lantos Institute. The aim of the study is to explore the extent, scope and prevalence of antisemitic prejudice in the four postcommunist countries of Central and Eastern
Europe known as the Visegrád Four: the Czech
Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia.
Furthermore, it explores how antisemitism is related to various socio-demographic and attitudinal factors in order to understand what causes antisemitic prejudice and identify which social groups are prone to such prejudice. In addition, regional specificities, including victim consciousness, historical perceptions of Holocaust bystandership and their relationship to antisemitic prejudice are also examined.
