Public Seminar

I get to headline Public Seminar, the new website of the New School for Social Research! Public Seminar is modeled on the University in Exile's General Seminar, started eighty years ago this year. (You've heard me natter on about it.) I played up the NSSR connections, from the Horace Kallen cameo in its very first sentence to the words "social research" at at the very end of the very last (and coming after a little Durkheimian wink). You can read the whole piece - the start, I'm thinking, of a series on contemporary engagements with the Book of Job - here.
