The Importance of the Scholarship of Dorothy Borg, Part II

January 8, 2023January 9, 2023 By Warren I. Cohen, Rosemary Foot, Carol Gluck, Steven I. Levine

October 14, 2022January 8, 2023 By Lloyd Gardner

“Walt” Let me begin by talking about a picnic in one of Madison’s beautiful parks near a lake in midsummer 1957.  It was ideal weather and the three of us (Walt LaFeber, Tom McCormick, and myself) were talking with our wives about our graduate school experience, the profession, and the unknown future.  I was surprised…

Born in 1902, a granddaughter of the banker Jacob Schiff—who bequeathed $1 million to each of his grandchildren—Dorothy never had to work to pay the rent.  Her family was part of the famed Our Crowd: The Great Jewish Families of New York and she appears as a young woman in a photograph published in Stephen…

Forum 33 on the Importance of the Scholarship of Stanley Hoffmann

April 8, 2022January 8, 2023 By Jacques E. C. Hymans, Deniz Kuru, Kiran Klaus Patel, Tommaso Pavone, Kamila Stullerova

Stanley Hoffmann’s long career in political science and international relations has been celebrated in several special issues of scholarly journals and a Festschrift.[2] It is important for a discipline to honor its greatest exponents. In Hoffmann’s case, that task has surely been accomplished. His students and close colleagues have collectively painted a rich portrait of…

As a way of honoring his memory, we wanted to give people in…

December 17, 2021January 8, 2023 By Philip Zelikow, Niall Ferguson, Francis J. Gavin, Anne Karalekas, Daniel Sargent

For a half-century, from 1959 until his death in 2009, Ernest May was in the front rank of historians studying the interactions of the United States with the world.  He left an enormous and fascinatingly readable body of work and touched many lives.  That is perhaps why this forum stimulated such a remarkable and contrasting…

Eric D. Weitz was a colleague and friend who was taken from us prematurely on July 1, 2021.  Fittingly, H-Diplo is hosting a forum to honor his memory.  When I approached Taner Akçam, Anne Kornhauser, Norman Naimark, and Mary Nolan to participate, they accepted without hesitation.  I selected these scholars in order to cover the…
