Anotácia:

Práce pojednává o postoji a přístupu české společnosti a československého státu k Židům v českých zemích v druhé polovině 40. let 20. století, během které se tento postoj a přístup postupně ustálil vzhledem k monopolizaci státní moci komunistickou stranou v takzvaný antisionismus. Práce se soustředí na skutečnosti spojené s tímto postojem a přístupem především na první dva poválečné roky v rovině ideologické, smýšlení veřejnosti a politické.
