Harriman To Host 2013 NEH Summer Institute

The Harriman Institute is pleased to announce the receipt of a prestigious NEH Summer Institute grant for June 2013. Co-Directed by Harriman Research Scholar Edward Kasinec and the Columbia University Libraries' Robert Davis, and with the leadership of Harriman Director Timothy M. Frye, the Institute will consider the substance of the terms "diaspora," "transnational," "accommodation," and "memory" through the specific prism of the four distinct waves—First (1917-40), Second (1947-55), Third (1967-89), and Fourth (1989 to the present)— of Russian-speaking immigrants to America.
