Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism

The Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism (JDA) is a definition of antisemitism signed by more than 200 scholars. The declaration explicitly states that boycotts of Israel are not inherently antisemitic, and was motivated in part by objection to the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism, which has been criticized for curbing free speech with regard to criticism of Israel. The declaration includes a "core definition" of antisemitism: Antisemitism is discrimination, prejudice, hostility or violence against Jews as Jews (or Jewish institutions as Jewish).
