Endangered Scholars Worldwide
On this website and in each issue of Social Research
we are publishing the names and details of scholars who have been
threatened or imprisoned, along with ways to offer them support.
Social Research
was founded by a group of scholars known as "The University in Exile,"
refugees from Nazi Europe who found a home in The New School. We see
this new effort as consistent not only with our own history as a
journal but with the need to call attention to the increasing, often
brutal, attempts to silence our colleagues around the world.
