German Constructions of Whiteness Through the Fight against Anti-Semitism

This thesis critically analyses how Whiteness in Germany is constructed and re-inforced through the so-called "fight against Antisemitism". Through the observations in political educational programs and seminars around the various formations of what white Germans understand as "Anti-Semitism", this research observes and analyses class room dynamics along speech act, discourse and compares them with embedded discourses on that topic within German society as well as Europe.
