Antisemitism in the Contexts of Schools and Police – Federal State Study Series

The research interest of the study series concerns the perceptions and interpretations of antisemitism in the contexts of schools and the police as well as the practices of dealing with antisemitic attacks.

The perspectives of Jewish families, former pupils, teachers, school administrators and actors in educational work and policy, as well as (prospective) police officers are examined. After a nationwide family study and partial studies in Berlin and Baden-Württemberg, the study series is currently being continued in Thuringia, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt.

The studies are being implemented in a long-term cooperation between the Centre of Excellence for Prevention and Empowerment and the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam.
