In the face of anti-Semitism: thoughts of Polish psychotherapists
Journal Title: Archives of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy - Year 2010, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
In the presented paper, the authors as members of the Polish-Israeli Mental Health Association share their reflections around debate caused by the publishing of the book “Fear” of J.T. Gross, in Poland. The question is which stereotypes around patriotism and the Polish myth are provoked, what kind of defense could be moved and how it could influence contemporary Polish-Jewish relations?
