What was a result of widespread anti-Semitism in Europe in the late 1800s?
marishachu [46]

Answer:  The Zionist movement began and led to the settlement and creation of modern Israel.

Details:

Anti-Semitism was strong in Europe already in the Middle Ages, when Jews were accused of such things as spreading the plague by poisoning wells, or using the blood of murdered Christians to make the matzah for their Passover rituals.  The term "anti-Semitism" as a description for hostile opposition to the Jewish people was first used by Wilhelm Marr in 1879 in Germany.  Marr supported campaigns against Jews and began using the term "anti-Semitism" as a euphemism for what better might have been called "Jew-hating."

The main Zionist movement was largely secular in nature, focused on establishing a homeland for anyone of Jewish ethnicity.   Theodore Herzl is typically credited with getting the secular Zionist movement started with his book,  <em>Der Judenstaat </em>("The Jews' State), published in 1896.  Herzl also led in the founding of the World Zionist Organization, established by the First World Zionist Congress held in Switzerland in 1897.    Convinced that the Jews would never truly be welcomed or assimilated within the countries of Europe, Herzl argued for establishment of their own homeland somewhere. Eventually that "somewhere" became a movement focused on going back to the ancestral land of Israel.

What is the philosophy behind active resistance?
Tomtit [17]
Passive resistance commonly refers to actions of nonviolent protest or resistance to authority. The central feature is the conscious choice by the actors to abstain from a violent response even in the face of violent aggression. The term came into common use during the independence struggle in India between the 1920s and 1948. It has been used widely by groups who lack formal authority or position and has sometimes been called the “weapon of the weak.<span>”


</span><span>Active resistance can be two things depending upon the application of the term. In criminal justice, active resistance means a law enforcement officer coming into contact with someone who physically counters what the officer is attempting to do. In governmental philosophy, active resistance is defined as anarchism against a state or government for the purposes of disrupting the established order.</span><span>
