Some important new interventions on this.

Recommend ‘Labour's Antisemitism Crisis: What the Left Got Wrong and How to Learn From It’ by @Livesrunning routledge.com/Labours-Antise…
Forthcoming book by @therubykid ‘Confronting Antisemitism on the Left: Arguments for Socialists’ nopasaran.media/confronting-an…
Plus worth reading/re-reading some older classics on this topic like Steve Cohen’s ‘That’s Funny, You Don’t Look Anti-Semitic’ nopasaran.media/thats-funny/
And this great pamphlet by @homeandfreedom ‘The Past Didn't Go Anywhere: Making Resistance to Antisemitism Part of All of our Movements’ aprilrosenblum.com/thepast

And how we try to counter them
First several excellent introductory books

‘Conspiracy Theories: A Critical Introduction’ by Jovan Byford

‘Voodoo Histories: How Conspiracy Theory Has Shaped Modern History’ by @DAaronovitch
Two excellent edited collections giving comprehensive cutting-edge overviews of the latest scholarship
