Published: October 22, 2024
ACLS Vice President James Shulman co-authored a new essay with Eugene Tobin, senior advisor at Ithaka S+R, as part of The World Humanities Report.“Humanities in the United States”presents the current states of the humanities in the United States and showcases the contributions of the humanities to knowledge and society.
Shulman’s work is also included in a feature on the report from the University of California, Berkeley:
One of the really important insights of the World Humanities Report is the observation made by James Shulman, of the American Council of Learned Societies, that the greatest funding source for humanities research is undergraduate students. There is no graduate student or faculty pipeline — and hence no research pipeline — for the humanities without undergraduates in our classrooms and universities.
The World Humanities Report, published on October 14, 2024, is a major international study organized by the Consortium for Humanities Centers and Institutes and commissioned by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the International Council of Philosophy and the Human Sciences.
