Religious anti-Semitism need not enter the state-racism genealogy until the nineteenth century

Evidence

Insofar as it is a religious and racial attitude, anti-Semitism had so little influence on the history I was trying to trace for you that it does not have to be taken into account until we reach the nineteenth century. — Michel Foucault, Society Must Be Defended, 104

Categorization

• QUESTION: A striking claim that religious anti-Semitism is late and secondary to State racism’s genealogy — worth verifying against the broader historiography.
• XREF: connects to: Economic usefulness of Jews outweighed noble prejudice until state change; Sardar framed Islamophobia as a transhistorical transitory descriptor akin to anti-Semitism. — Chris Allen, Islamophobia, 77; Nineteenth-century State racism reutilized older religious anti-Semitism for biological exclusion — Michel Foucault, Society Must Be Defended, 105 (+5 more)
