Jewish community groups say reported antisemitic incidents in Australia have surged since October 7. But the commission is not only hearing about what’s happened. It’s also being asked to answer a difficult question: what counts as antisemitism  – and where is the line between political speech, criticism of Israel, and hatred directed at Jews? Today, historian of modern Jewish life and culture David Slucki, who leads Monash University’s research into antisemitism, on how antisemitism should be understood, measured and responded to.
