    Dr. S.T. Lee Distinguished Lecture in the Humanities

    Few authors have contributed more to our thinking about globalization than Immanuel Wallerstein, the great pioneer and proponent of world systems theory. His seminal works map the complex relations among countries and regions as a dynamic system of flows between a core and its peripheries. In this talk, Wallerstein addresses both the continuing relevance and the limitations of the world systems model. Are we still at the center? If so, where are the peripheries, and what is happening there?

    A program of the 2012-2013 Penn Humanities Forum on Peripheries.

    Cosponsored by the Center for Global Communication Studies, Annenberg School for Communication, Penn.
