摘要
In this article Rachel S. Harris and Martin B. Shichtman consider the ways in which the presentation of BDS has undermined traditional expectations of scholarly research-including factual accuracy, knowledge of the regional languages, the reliability of sources, or situating the work within a wider analytical discourse outside of activist writings. In this way it is is destroying the credibility of the Humanities. In addition, we consider the ways in which BDS has fostered public displays of antisemitism and evaluate the long-term harm the movement is causing to the academy.
