Serbophobia (Serb: Србофобиjа, "srbofobija"), also called anti-Serbism, is a dislike or hatred of Serbs or Serbia. The term is used in a non-clinical sense, as a political accusation. The term refers to the position that the whole Serbian nation is guilty, as exemplified by a New York Times article (April 1, 2001), Milosevic Is Accused, but All of Serbia Is on Trial.
The term was used, e.g., by Danon Cadik, Chief Rabbi of Yugoslavia et. al. in the open letter to the American Jewish Committee in 1995 during the bombing of the Serbs by Nato.
Serbian Writers Association also organized a meeting on February 28 1989 with the theme of "Serbophobia" that discussed Croatian genocide of Serbs, including the reference to Jasenovac. This and other events was part of the movement towards the "unified Serbia", which was one of elements leading to the Yugoslav wars of 1990s.
