Judeophobia is a Psychosis (quote source: Auto-Emancipation)
Book •
Leo Pinsker's 'Auto-Emancipation' is a seminal 1882 essay that argues Jews must achieve national self-determination to escape persistent persecution in Europe.
Pinsker diagnosed judeophobia as a social disease and urged Jewish political and cultural revival as a remedy, laying intellectual groundwork for later Zionist movements.
The essay critiques assimilationist approaches and emphasizes collective action, education, and the pursuit of a homeland as practical solutions.
'Auto-Emancipation' influenced early Zionist leaders and remains a notable historical document in Jewish political thought.
Its polemical language and diagnosis of antisemitism as an ingrained social pathology have been widely discussed by historians.
