Antisemitism in Argentina

Antisemitism is the practice of showing hostility toward or discrimination against Jews as a religious, ethnic, or racial group.[1] In Argentina antisemitism has been around since Spanish colonization in the sixteenth century, and has continued to the present day.[2] In the twentieth century antisemitism in Argentina was particularly pervasive, especially in the World War II and post-World War II eras. In these eras Argentine antisemitism adopted Nazi antisemitism, and blended it with religious (Catholic) hostility, which allowed vehement antisemitism in Argentina to persist well into the 1970s and 1980s.[3]
