    Antisemitism: From Its Origins to the Present - a New Free Online Course on Antisemitism from Yad Vashem

    Yad Vashem's new and innovative online course Antisemitism: From Its Origins to the Present traces the history of antisemitism - from antiquity to the present. It is currently available for free on the UK based digital education platform FutureLearn, which is partnered with over 100 leading academic institutions worldwide.

    In the course 50 world leading scholars and public figures - historians, sociologists, linguists and political scientists, as well as policy makers, and religious leaders, explore major questions and issues relating to antisemitism including: what is antisemitism? How has it changed throughout history? Why can it be found among so many diverse cultures, and even among opposing ideologies? What happened to antisemitism after the Holocaust? What are the main characteristics of antisemitism in the Muslim world and how are they different from the ones that characterize the phenomenon in the West? How is antisemitism expressed today, and what are the main spheres in which it can be found? How can we distinguish between antisemitism and legitimate criticism of the State of Israel?

    The course, which began running on March 19th 2018 has thus far attracted thousands of learners from all over the world.
