The Program on Identities and Institutions is led by Rafaela Dancygier, Bobst Center Director and Professor, Department of Politics and International Affairs. This program focuses on the domestic consequences of globalization, immigration, and ethnic diversity. The program hosts annual conferences and workshops that bring together national and international scholars to present and discuss cutting edge social science research. Some recent topics have included comparative immigrant integration policies and their outcomes; the politics of gentrification and segregation in global cities; the politics of policing, and electoral realignments and coalitional change in democracies.
Participation in the Bobst Center for Peace and Justice’s Program on Identities and Institutions is by invitation only.
