Yoram Hazony is an Israeli philosopher, biblical scholar, and political theorist. He currently serves as the President of the Herzl Institute in Jerusalem, and is the Chairman of the Edmund Burke Foundation. Dr. Hazony is the author of The Virtue of Nationalism and Conservatism: A Rediscovery. He graduated from Princeton University with a B.A. in East Asian Studies and completed his Ph.D. at Rutgers University in Political Theory.

As we discuss antisemitism, a subject Dr. Hazony approaches with hesitance, acknowledging its apparent remoteness from our daily realities. However, recent shocking events have foregrounded the persistence and danger of antisemitism, especially in academic contexts. Professor Hazony invites us to confront these uncomfortable truths, challenging us to reconsider our perceptions and stand against injustice.

In a time when the moral health and role of free speech in our universities are brought sharply into question, Dr. Hazony and the CCCG explores these issues.
