IMPORTANT: This book is sold strictly for educational and research purposes, with the objective of studying the history of antisemitism from a scholarly and objective perspective. We explicitly distance ourselves from the antisemitic ideas, views, and opinions contained within this volume. Furthermore, we strongly condemn any sympathy for, or glorification of, antisemitism in any form whatsoever. This edition reproduces an English translation of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, an antisemitic forgery first circulated in the Russian Empire in the early twentieth century. Presented falsely as the minutes of secret meetings, the text alleges a Jewish conspiracy to control governments, finance, the press and world affairs. These allegations have been thoroughly discredited: the text plagiarizes earlier political satire and was used to promote antisemitism. This edition is therefore primarily relevant as a historical document for studying conspiracy theories, antisemitic propaganda and the circulation of fabricated political texts. Content: The Jewish question: fact or fancy? / Does a definite Jewish world program exist? / An introduction to the 'Jewish Protoclos' / The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion
