The Antisemitism Hypothesis Discovery Framework (AHDF) — Version 5.4: Core Documents

The Antisemitism Hypothesis Discovery Framework (AHDF) Version 5.4 is a comprehensive, pre-registered, multi-epochal analytical framework for the empirical study of antisemitism, spanning 1010 BCE to 2026 CE. It comprises a 17-category, 5-layer analytical architecture across 14 historical epochs, designed to test whether antisemitism is a structurally distinctive phenomenon or a variant of generic minority persecution. This deposit contains the four open-access core documents: (1) the Main Document (MD) — the full analytical framework; (2) the Coder Training Manual (CTM) — certification and coding procedures; (3) the Implementation Roadmap (IR) — phased deployment plan; and (4) the Global Component Registry (GCR) — authoritative registry of all 1,100+ named framework components. The Coding Database Schema (CDS) and Quantitative Methodology Specification (QMS) are deposited separately under restricted access. Author: Menashe Aaron.
