I have been searching for evidence that supporters of the academic boycott of Israel will now launch an academic boycott of Turkey in light of the widespread purge of Turkish academia after the failed coup, destruction of civil society including the judiciary and media, suppression of Kurdish self-determination, and complicity in the Syrian civil war that has killed hundreds of thousands, among other offenses.
But so far, no luck in my search, just some hot air by American academics expressing outrage:
- Internet hunt: Find anti-Israel academic boycotters also boycotting Turkey
- American Studies Association discussing possible academic boycott of Turkey, but why stop there?
- Will anti-Israel academic boycotters now also boycott Turkish universities?
