As far as I'm aware, the anti-BDS laws only pertain to performance under governmental contracts or similar, or are merely statements of position without legal effect.
Is there a law that prohibits individuals who are not operating under such a contract from boycotting?
- s1artibartfast 2y agoAll anti-BDS that I am aware of operate through government employment and contracting. I would however clarify your statement in that the scope often extends not just to the work under contract, but personal and professional behavior outside the scope of contract.
- JohnFen 2y agoYes, but it's still under the authority of the contract. That means that expressing support of a boycott is not illegal, it's just grounds for termination of that employment.
- s1artibartfast 2y agoThat is correct.
