Institute for the
Study of Contemporary Antisemitism

Dr. Daniel Miehling's research studies the intersections of anti-Zionism and antisemitism in digital discourse. His current work focuses on political communication in social media, analyzing narratives following the attacks on Israel after October 7. Using methods of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computational Social Science (CSS), he examines how news coverage by state-funded media influences online discussions about Israel, Jews, Palestinians, and Islamist groups. By analyzing large-scale datasets, his research provides insights into the dissemination of contemporary manifestations of antisemitism, the emotional toning within User-Generated Content (UGC), and the challenges of detecting harmful content in digital spaces.
