| Abstract |
Invoking “indications” of “pro-Palestinian violence”, Dutch authorities partially succeeded in demobilizing a national protest against the severe higher education budget cuts. According to Sarah Bracke, this is not an isolated incident. Throughout history and around the globe, far-right political positions are shaped by anti-intellectualism and invested in curtailing educational institutions. And moral panics — in this case “pro-Palestinian violence” — are always used in the process. |
