Extract

Recent calls to boycott Israel, including its academic institutions, have stimulated heated debate over the relationship between boycotts and academic freedom. Academic boycotts admittedly raise complex issues, as they typically trammel academic freedom to some degree. Nonetheless, I do not favor a blanket refusal to engage in them. Although applying a negative presumption, we should consider academic boycotts on a case-by-case basis.
