Find out moreThe London Centre for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism works to improve our understanding of antisemitism. It is a creative and energetic hub of thinking and research from diverse disciplines. The Centre maps and describes antisemitism, even where it is angrily denied by much academic orthodoxy. We recognise and challenge antisemitic thinking and we critique the ideas and claims that are based upon it. We point towards alternative, rational and democratic ways of understanding the world.
