Abstract:

In Studies in Contemporary Jewry 4, 210-231.Local Jewish demographic studies must be viewed as a legitimate source of data about anti-Semitism. They are consistent with national data and can help monitor Jewish perceptions of anti-Semitism. Follow-up studies of those who have experienced anti-Semitism could contribute much toward a better understanding of such perceptions.
