Lecture

Please join us for the Spring 2025 Joint University of Waterloo – St. Jerome’s University Legal Studies Seminar.

Dr. Irina Ceric will be speaking on the topic of “‘PRIVATE’ PROPERTY, PUBLIC FORCE: THE LEGAL REGULATION OF CAMPUS ENCAMPMENTS”     

This talk examines the legal debate surrounding antisemitism in the context of Israel criticism, challenging definitions that equate such criticism with antisemitic speech. It argues that current legal definitions impose a narrow, Zionist-centric view of Jewish identity, harming both Palestinian advocacy and Jewish pluralism. 

Please join the Department of Sociology and Legal Studies for a talk by visiting lecturer, Frederick de Moll, a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Social Sciences of the University of Luxembourg.
