ABSTRACT

We used data from an Australian community register to build a database containing 673 incidents, including both criminal and non-criminal anti-Semitic acts that occurred between October 2013 and September 2017. We conducted bivariate and multivariate analyses to explore the differences in the types of incidents associated with different trigger events. Using time series methods, we found a significant increase in criminal (but not in non-criminal) incidents during the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict. During Jewish religious festivals, we found a significant decrease in criminal incidents, and a significant increase in non-criminal incidents. After the establishment of the neo-nazi group Antipodean Resistance, we found a significant increase in both criminal and non-criminal incidents. Using bivariate analysis, we found that particular trigger events were associated with qualitatively different types of anti-Semitic incidents (e.g. verbal abuse, property vandalism, violence against people). We propose that these differences reflect the diversity of ideological groups with which different offenders identify.

摘要

我们使用来自澳大利亚社区登记册的数据建立了一个数据库，其中包含 673 起事件，包括 2013 年 10 月至 2017 年 9 月期间发生的犯罪和非犯罪反犹太行为。我们进行了双变量和多变量分析，以探索在类型上的差异。与不同触发事件相关的事件。使用时间序列方法，我们发现在 2014 年以色列-加沙冲突期间，犯罪（但非犯罪）事件显着增加。在犹太宗教节日期间，我们发现犯罪事件显着减少，非犯罪事件显着增加。在新纳粹组织 Antipodean Resistance 成立后，我们发现犯罪和非犯罪事件都显着增加。使用双变量分析，我们发现，特定的触发事件与不同类型的反犹太事件（例如辱骂、破坏财产、对人的暴力行为）有关。我们认为，这些差异反映了不同罪犯所认同的意识形态群体的多样性。
