Abstract: We begin by explaining the need for educational measures targeting antisemitism in its own right, distinct from anti-racist programs. We then provide succinct sketches of the evolution of contemporary antisemitism and the social parameters governing antisemitic communication in Germany. This is followed by a discussion of both individual and collective defense and evasion strategies that obstruct the necessary critical treatment of antisemitism and form an obstacle to antisemitism prevention work more generally. The extent to which Jewish life is respected at school tends to be determined directly by the extent to which such defense mechanisms are allowed to prevail, and it is of crucial importance that educational measures targeting antisemitism do not selectively instrumentalize Jewish input. Having discussed these challenges against the backdrop of the parameters governing the public communication of antisemitism, we conclude with a short summary of our principal recommendations.
