The Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism (JDA) is a document meant to outline the bounds of antisemitic speech and conduct, particularly with regard to Zionism, Israel and Palestine. Its creation was motivated by a desire to confront antisemitism and by objections to the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism, which critics have said stifles legitimate criticism of the Israeli government and curbs free speech. The drafting of the declaration was initiated in June 2020 under the auspices of the Van Leer Institute in Jerusalem by eight coordinators, most of whom were university professors. Upon its completion the declaration was signed by about 200 scholars in various fields and released in March 2021.

  • Die Jerusalemer Erklärung zum Antisemitismus (englisch Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism, abgekürzt JDA) vom März 2021 beansprucht, den Begriff des Antisemitismus neu zu definieren. Sie wurde ab Juni 2020 von etwa 20 Akademikern erstellt und von rund 200 weiteren unterzeichnet. Sie richtet sich gegen die Antisemitismusdefinition derInternational Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) von 2016, die bisher (2020) 56 Staaten und viele Institutionen weltweit anerkannt haben. Einige deutsche Antisemitismusforscher weisen die JDA als unwissenschaftlich zurück. (de)
  • The Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism (JDA) is a document meant to outline the bounds of antisemitic speech and conduct, particularly with regard to Zionism, Israel and Palestine. Its creation was motivated by a desire to confront antisemitism and by objections to the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism, which critics have said stifles legitimate criticism of the Israeli government and curbs free speech. The drafting of the declaration was initiated in June 2020 under the auspices of the Van Leer Institute in Jerusalem by eight coordinators, most of whom were university professors. Upon its completion the declaration was signed by about 200 scholars in various fields and released in March 2021. The declaration includes a 16-word definition of antisemitism which reads: Antisemitism is discrimination, prejudice, hostility or violence against Jews as Jews (or Jewish institutions as Jewish). It also includes 15 guidelines, divided into three sections, that seek to aid in the identification of antisemitism and give examples of antisemitic speech and conduct with regard to Israel and Palestine that are and are not antisemitic. The declaration was positively received by a cohort of Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives who urged the U.S. State Department to use it alongside the IHRA definition. However, in its response to the Representatives the State Department reaffirmed its support for the IHRA definition and ultimately did not take steps to adopt the JDA. The declaration has also been criticized on multiple fronts. Some have said that by seeking to rebut the IHRA definition the JDA undermines consensus and sets back the fight against antisemitism. The declaration has also been criticized for sidelining the issue of antisemitism by seeking to engulf it in the fight against all other forms of racism. Others have questioned the reputability of the declaration given that a number of its signers have been accused of antisemitism. (en)
