The Eurabia myth mirrors the Protocols of the Elders of Zion structure

Evidence

Of course the predicted (inflated) levels of population growth have not gone undisputed, and indeed have been refuted by Carr (2006), Hawkins (2009), Jones (2005), Kuper (2007) and Laurence and Vaisse (2006), among others, principally on the grounds that they both radically overestimate base figures and then extrapolate implausible levels of population growth. The demography panic has nonetheless achieved a degree of traction, and the same demographic fatalism is shared by Christopher Caldwell (2010) in his Reflections on the Revolution in Europe (subtitled: Can Europe Be the Same with Different People in It?). These assessments have led Matt Carr (2011, p. 14) to note the ways in which ‘Eurabia bears many of the essential features of the essential features of the invented antisemitic tract, the Protocals of the Elders of Zion, in its presentation of European Muslims as agents in a conspiratorial of world domination.’ — Nasar Meer, Racialization and Religion, 52

Categorization

• XREF: Directly extends the chapter’s earlier argument (ch0) that racialization analysis applies jointly rather than two-tiered, giving Muslim-specific replication of the classic Jewish conspiracy genre. Feeds the current reading purpose on whether religion is being read as descent. — connects to: Eurabia theories predict Muslim demographic takeover of Europe. — Nasar Meer, Racialization and Religion: Race,…, 50; The Eurabia conspiracy theory about Muslim demographic domination has circulated widely through bestselling authors — Nasar Meer, Racialization and Religion: Race,…, 50; The refuted Eurabia demographic conspiracy structurally mirrors the Protocols of the Elders of Zion — Nasar Meer, Racialization and Religion: Race,…, 52
• QUESTION: Worth chasing how precisely the Eurabia thesis maps onto the Protocols — Carr’s formal list of shared features deserves integration into the race-reading argument.
