Description

Throughout its history, Europe has been marked by xenophobia and intolerance that has often led to violent intergroup conflicts. Uli Linke explores how extensions of blood imagery not only gave expression to this xenophobia but helped to shape European ideas about race and difference - ideas that have led and continue to lead to violence.
