About this Event

Celebrating the Life and Legacy of Professor Emerita Liah Greenfeld

Liah Greenfeld was one of the most original thinkers of our time. Best known for her work on nationalism, she has continually expanded the range of her scholarship—from minds to nations to civilizations—until she formalized her subject as The Science of Humanity. With her prodigious output over a 40-year career, she has presented a framework for a logical and empirical human science, capable of progressively producing objective knowledge about all of human reality. Please join us in celebrating her life and legacy among colleagues, former students, friends, and family.
