International high finance against the nation?


 This article analyses antisemitic elements in the Austrian print media discourse
 about the 2008–2010 economic crisis. The relevant discursive statements are
 examined in the light of a theoretical understanding of antisemitic discursive
 threads as found in the prevalent modes of presentation of the economic and
 financial crisis in the media. The first main finding is the broad avoidance of
 openly antisemitic stereotypes, with the exception of the Neue Kronen
 Zeitung. The second main finding is that structurally antisemitic
 discursive elements appear above all where (a) specific groups (“high finance”,
 “financial sharks”, “speculators”) are singled out as the main culprits, (b)
 these are opposed to a homogeneously constructed “us” (the
 “Volk”), and (c) where the formers’ greed is stressed and
 where they are accused of harming the people. Here we find nationalistic and
 latent antisemitic discourses, the stereotypical contrasting of finance and
 production, conspiracy theories and anti-Americanism closely interwoven.
