Ministry of Interior and SPCJ published the 2019 Report on Antisemitism in France.
Here are the main trends:
French Jews, who represent less than 1% of the total population, faced more than 41% of all racist Acts committed in France in 2019.
The number of Antisemitic Acts recorded in France is significantly lower than the actual figures because of:
HABITUATION = Antisemitism is now so entrenched in daily life and has become so violent that victims of such acts are somehow resigned and show a kind of habituation. Many of them do not file a police report.
FEAR = Numerous victims of Antisemitic Acts declare that they do not file a police report for fear of retaliation.
MISTRUST = Numerous victims of Antisemitic Acts do not believe that an investigation or a criminal charge will result in a successful conclusion.
INTERNET = Threats only include a few incidents observed on the Internet, but not the fully-fledged Antisemitic activity that is propagated online. The vast majority of Antisemitic speech and propaganda has moved to the Internet in recent years.
