Why is it so hard for unis to agree on a definition of ‘antisemitism’?

Universities across Australia are set to adopt definitions of racism, including antisemitism, by next year, but there's a significant debate about what exactly antisemitism entails. Despite efforts to standardize definitions, experts and institutions can't agree on a single, universally accepted version. This disagreement matters because it affects how institutions address and combat prejudice on campus. The challenge highlights broader societal tensions regarding how to define and combat modern forms of hate, with implications for education, policy, and social cohesion.
