Despite attempts to bridge the two fields, scholars and politicians continue to single out antisemitism, both inside and outside academia. The struggle
PhD Candidate: Katrine ScottAbstract:My PhD project focuses on the role of higher education in a post-conflict society.

Maskulinitet I feminismens tjänst.
