Beginning in the 1890's, Roman Dmowski's National Democrats (Endecja) tapped into centuries-old popular anti-Semitism, blaming all of Poland's problems on it's Jewish citizens. By the 1930's, Endekian thought was becoming increasingly institutionalized. Modras shows that the church was not a bystander to the growing intolerance but was a leading and enthusiastic proponent.
Modras goes to great lengths to demonstrate that the anti-Semitism of the Polish Church was not unique but was in accordance with the viewpoint of the Vatican and other national churches at that time. The author provides a wealth of anti-Semitic articles from official Polish Catholic publications. Most numerous are articles from Fr. Maksymilian Kolbe's rabidly anti-Semitic daily newspaper, Maly Dziennik.
