Swedish Committee Against Antisemitism - Projects

Projects

The organization has released many reports on antisemitism in Sweden, amongst others "The denied hatred - antisemitism among Muslims and Arabs in Sweden", a high-profile report which has received positive attention in the public debate, but fierce criticism for ill-foundedly stigmatizing Swedish Muslims as well.

The SCAA also hosts seminars for teachers on antisemitism, racism and intolerance; White Power (neo-Nazi) music and neo-Nazi propaganda; and the Holocaust. It sponsors 12-day study tours in Israel for teachers as well as 8-day study tours to Poland. Among the places visited are Warszawa, Treblinka, Tykocin, Bialystok, Sobibor, Włodawa, Lublin, Majdanek, Zamosc, Belzec, Josefow, Zbylitowska Gora, Tarnow, Oswiecim, Kraków and Kazimierz.

The SCAA regularly publishes books and booklets. A partial list includes:

  • Det eviga hatet ("The Eternal Hatred", 1993)
  • Att urskulda antisemitism ("Exculpating Antisemitism", 1993)
  • Öga for öga ... ("An eye for an eye ...", 1995)
  • Förnekandet av Förintelsen; ("Denial of the Holocaust", 1995, 1996)
  • Nationalsocialismens Symboler; ("Symbols of National Socialism", 1997
  • Förintelsen. Utrotningen av Europas judar (a translation of the French book "Shoah - L'impossible oubli", by the French historian Anne Grunberg, 1997)

Famous quotes containing the word projects:

    One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    But look what we have built ... low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace.... Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums.... Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.
    Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
