The Jewish Echo 2016 – Threats, enemy stereotypes, scapegoats

12. December 2016

As Elias Canetti once said, many people experience fear when faced with the strange and unfamiliar.

“The Jewish Echo” magazine, 2016/17 issue (in German)

This fear can also be directed at everyone who is different: At members of other religions and nations, at refugees flowing into the country seeking sanctuary. It can kill empathy and lead to the creation of cliché-laden enemy stereotypes and scapegoats.

Without talking down these risks, the 2016/17 issue of The Jewish Echo would like to show how bridges of understanding can be built – even if these collapse again sometimes. (Source: Falter Verlag)
