The refuted Eurabia demographic conspiracy structurally mirrors the Protocols of the Elders of Zion
Evidence
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
- ADDENDUM: Carr’s mapping of the Eurabia tract onto the Protocols is direct evidence for the writer’s thread: here is a case where the new Islamophobic content visibly reuses the substantive structural template of the prior antisemitic tract — not just the formal slot but the whole conspiratorial world-domination narrative.
