About this listen

In this episode, Professor Paul Hanebrink of Rutgers University unpacks the history of the Judeo-Bolshevik myth and its echoes in today's political discourse. In conversation with our very own Dr Fabian Baumann, he traces the myth's "fungal" proliferation across interwar Europe, sheds light on its evolving uses and invocations, and examines its Cold War legacy. What constitutes this 'racial theory of communism'? And why did the myth of Judeo-Bolshevism stimulate the imaginations of Central and Western Europeans so powerfully? Do we still see traces of it in contemporary politics? Tune in to find out!
