International Workshop
Defining Antisemitism between History and Politics

What is antisemitism? Is it important to define antisemitism? Is anti-Zionism a case of antisemitism? Is antisemitism a form of racism?
This international conference aims to address such questions from a variety of disciplines and perspectives.

Understanding Antisemitism: Philosophy, Psychoanalysis, and Religion
The plethora of explanations of antisemitism is testimony to the complexity of “the longest hatred.” Can we outline theoretical trends that remain constant in antisemitic bigotry?



“Understanding Antisemitism: Philosophy, Psychoanalysis, and Religion”

Roundtable: Antisemitisms: A Variety of Meanings?

Senior scholars with diverse views will discuss the questions of whether anti-Zionism is antisemitic. Is it right to link the fight against antisemitism to other struggles against racism and xenophobia? Can antisemitism be defined, and do existing definitions advance the fight against it?
