Abstract:
The present thesis is intended to research the security threats that have increased due to the rise in anti-Semitism while proposing policy suggestions to combat current and future risk. Anti-Semitism has existed for centuries. However, there is research to indicate that recent attacks have become more frequent and violent. The first half of this paper will analyze the history of anti-Semitism, environments that foster hatred, and the implications the ideology has on nation security. The second half of the paper will be on policy suggestions in different social spheres including on economics, customs, and education. Current research indicates that the most successful social sphere to base policy off will be education and curriculum changes in schools and classrooms.
