The “Working Definition of Antisemitism” of the “International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance” not only leads to scientific controversies between its proponents and critics, it also – at least indirectly – plays an important role for the financing of institutions with public funds. Against this background, in 2019 Peter Ullrich had presented a study with a critical assessment of the IHRA Working Definition. Sina Arnold, Dana Ionescu, Uffa Jensen, Keith Kahn-Harris and again Peter Ullrich refer to this in their contributions.
