The 2023-24 Berlin Journal
The 2023-24 Berlin Journal is here! This issue features writing and imagery by this year’s class of Berlin Prize fellows, including Mariana P. Candido on the colonial dispossession of Angolan land; Mabel O. Wilson on race and early American architecture; Leigh Raiford on the photographs of Dawoud Bey; and artist portfolios by A.K. Burns and Liana Finck. Mark Copelovitch explains the dollar’s dominance in the global economy; Michael Doyle advises on how to create a cold peace; Holly Case elucidates the trope of tainted history; Saira Mohamed argues for the oft-overlooked human rights of soldiers; and Anne-Marie Slaughter discusses international affairs and American democracy. This, among much more, including book reviews, news from the Academy, and twenty-fifth anniversary congratulations from alumni and friends. (Cover image by Rosemarie Fiore).
