Perceptions of Antisemitism
Date: 2026
Topics: European Union, Antisemitism: Attitude Surveys, Main Topic: Antisemitism
Abstract: [Survey fieldwork completed November 2025] A growing majority of Europeans (55% compared to 50% in 2018) consider antisemitism as a problem in their country. 47% of Europeans (+11 pp compared to 36% in 2018) believe that antisemitism has increased over the past five years in their country. 62% of European citizens (+11 pp) think that hostility in public places is a problem in their country. 61% say that antisemitic graffiti or vandalism and antisemitism online (+10 pp for both) are a problem in their country. While 48% of Europeans (+5 pp) think that the Holocaust is sufficiently taught in school, a growing number of citizens (66% compared to 61% in 2018) are aware of laws about incitement to antisemitic violence. But still, only 52% (+10 pp) know about laws criminalising Holocaust denial. Almost seven out of ten Europeans (69%, +15pp since 2018) think that the conflicts in the Middle East have an influence on the perception of Jewish people in their country.

Abstract: Summary:

This Special Eurobarometer survey on 'perceptions of antisemitism' was carried out in December 2018 and presents a snapshot of the way European perceive antisemitism.

Further information:

The Report shows that perceptions among Europeans on this issue are very divided - while every other European considers Antisemitism to be a problem in their country, 4 in 10 Europeans actually do not consider it to be an issue in their country. The results also show that there is a perception gap on Antisemitism: while 89% of Jews say that Antisemitism significantly increased over a period of 5 years, only 36% of the general public consider it has indeed increased.
