Different Antisemitisms: On Three Distinct Forms of Antisemitism in C | Page 8

Figure 6:

We have noted remarkable discrepancies between the registered level of classic antisemitism
in the general population and the degree to which Jews in the same country perceive or
experience ”something antisemitic”.
Are there also similar discrepancies between particular antisemitic attitudes in the
general population and the degree to which the Jews of the country have actually been
confronted with such attitudes?
We will investigate this by scrutinizing the relation between the registered frequency in
the population of some of the singular components of classic antisemitism and the degree to
which the Jews in the country report that they have actually experienced them.
Thus, we compare how often a Jew has heard that “Jews have too much power in the country”
with the degree to which people in the general population of the country find such a statement
to be “probably true”. This is shown in Figure 7.
