What recent research projects or publications on antisemitism have come out of paideia (2023–2025)?
Executive summary
Paideia (the European Institute for Jewish Studies in Sweden) participated in and hosted research-related events from 2023–2025 — notably the Nordic Jewish Studies Network workshop in April 2023 and a wide 25th‑anniversary international conference in May 2025 — but the institute’s own peer‑reviewed publications explicitly on antisemitism in 2023–2025 are not listed in the available reporting (paideia hosted research events and incubator projects) [1] [2] [3]. Available sources show Paideia engaged as convenor and partner in projects and conferences that intersect with contemporary Jewish studies and European research on antisemitism, while major multicenter reports and projects on antisemitism in the period were produced by other research centres and the European Commission [4] [5].
1. Paideia as convenor: workshops and networks, not standalone antisemitism books
Paideia hosted the Nordic Jewish Studies Network Workshops in April 2023, bringing researchers from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden to present “their latest research,” and the workshop was linked to the project “Experimenting with Traditions: The Life and Afterlife of 20th Century Jewish Intellectual Culture in the Baltic Sea Region” [1]. Paideia’s publicly listed activity in this period emphasizes hosting and convening scholarly exchange rather than advertising an internal monograph or single research report explicitly titled as an antisemitism study [1] [6].
2. Large European and external reports on antisemitism where Paideia appears as stakeholder, not primary author
An independent European Commission expert report mapping contemporary antisemitism and Jewish life — “The field of research on contemporary antisemitism and Jewish life: Working towards a European research hub” — was published in April 2023 and sets agenda priorities for a European research hub; that report was authored under the Institute for Jewish Policy Research and does not name Paideia as lead author in the available summaries [4] [7]. Other high‑profile projects in the same timeframe — e.g., the Decoding Antisemitism AI‑driven study and various centre‑led discourse reports — are reported as products of consortiums and university centres rather than of Paideia itself [5] [8].
3. Paideia’s 2025 conference and incubator signal research commissioning and networking capacity
Paideia marked its 25th anniversary with an International Academic Conference in Stockholm, “Living with Difference: Jewish Paradigms,” held 5–9 May 2025 and organized with Swedish universities and museums; that conference and Paideia’s Project‑Incubator 2025 demonstrate the institute’s role in fostering and funding academic projects, which can seed future antisemitism‑related research even if specific antisemitism reports are not listed among Paideia’s own outputs in the sources [9] [2] [3].
4. Where antisemitism scholarship in 2023–2025 is visible — and who produced it
Contemporary antisemitism scholarship and analytical products in 2023–2025 visible in the provided material come primarily from specialised research centres and policy bodies: the EU‑commissioned mapping report (April 2023) [4], the Decoding Antisemitism project and its discourse reports [5] [8], and standalone research articles and datasets published in outlets including PLOS ONE and discipline journals (for example, a March 2025 PLOS ONE article analyzing antisemitic content on Twitter) [10] [5]. Those sources show robust activity in the field but do not identify Paideia as the principal research author of those outputs [10] [5].
5. Competing perspectives and implicit agendas to note
Paideia’s published materials frame the institute as an educational and convening body focused on Jewish studies, leadership and culture renewal [11] [12]. External policy and research actors driving antisemitism studies (EU, specialised research centres, university teams) have an explicit policy or monitoring mandate that can shape research priorities and public messaging; the EU mapping report, for example, explicitly aims to structure a research hub and recommends consolidation of the field [4]. Available sources do not mention Paideia publishing a major antisemitism monitoring report of its own in 2023–2025, so readers should treat Paideia primarily as a facilitator and incubator in this period rather than as a primary research shop for antisemitism monitoring [1] [3].
6. What the record implies for researchers and policymakers
Researchers seeking Paideia‑authored antisemitism studies should note that Paideia’s visible outputs in 2023–2025 are event‑driven (workshops, a major 2025 conference) and programmatic (Project‑Incubator) rather than single‑author monitoring reports [1] [2] [3]. Policymakers or funders looking for empirical antisemitism datasets should consult the EU report, Decoding Antisemitism publications, university centre discourse reports, and journal articles referenced in the available sources rather than expecting those resources to originate from Paideia [4] [5] [8] [10].
Limitations: the sources provided include Paideia event pages, EU and project reports, and academic publications; they do not include an exhaustive Paideia publications list or internal repository, and available sources do not mention a Paideia‑authored antisemitism monograph or dedicated monitoring report for 2023–2025 [1] [3] [4].
