Nationalist parties could distinguish hostility toward Jewish intellectuals from friendliness toward Jewish business.

Evidence

Since they made more social concessions, they were more successful than in Germany or in France. They, together with the Social Democrats, survived the downfall of the monarchy and became the most influential group in postwar Austria. But long before the establishment of an Austrian Republic, when, in the nineties, Lueger had won the Mayoralty of Vienna by an antisemitic campaign, the Christian-Socials already adopted that typically equivocal attitude toward the Jews in the nation-state—hostility to the intelligentsia and friendliness toward the Jewish business class. — Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism, 163

Categorization

• DEFINE: Defines the ‘equivocal attitude toward the Jews in the nation-state’ — a precise two-part stance (anti-intelligentsia, pro-business-class) that recurs in antisemitism studies.
• XREF: This two-part split (hostility to intellectuals, acceptance of business elites) prefigures Arendt’s later distinction in the same book between the pariah and parvenu Jew.
