Abstract
Der vorliegende Text wurde im Rahmen eines gemeinsamen Projektes des Georg-Eckert-Instituts mit dem Anne Frank Zentrum e.V. Berlin erstellt, das in der zweiten
Jahreshälfte 2016 durchgeführt wurde. Er basiert auf einer Stichprobe aktueller zugelassener
Geschichtsbücher und bereits vorliegenden Schulbuchanalysen zum Thema. Erarbeitet
wurde ein allgemeines Bild der Darstellung des Antisemitismus in deutschen
Schulbüchern. Dieser wird in der Regel in drei zentralen, größeren inhaltlichen Zusammenhängen
angesprochen: der jüdischen Verfolgungsgeschichte im Mittelalter, in der
Ambivalenz von Aufklärung, Emanzipation und Judenfeindlichkeit im 19. Jahrhundert
sowie als konstitutiver Teilbereich der nationalsozialistischen Ideologie und Herrschaft.
This publication emerged from a project undertaken jointly by the Georg Eckert Institute and the Anne Frank Zentrum in Berlin in the second half of the year 2016. The project drew up a general overview of the depiction of anti-Semitism in German textbooks on the basis of a sample of approved history textbooks currently in use in German schools and of extant textbook analysis on the topic. The study found that discussion of anti-Semitism in textbooks generally takes place within three major central contexts: the history of persecution of the Jews in the Middle Ages, the ambivalent coexistence of Enlightenment ideas, Jewish emancipation and hostility towards Jews in the nineteenth century, and National Socialist power and ideology, of which anti-Semitism is treated as a constitutive aspect.
