Arts, Culture and Religion

The Art/Culture/Religion Cluster meets over Skype every other month to discuss members’ pre-circulated drafts. Papers have included early-stage drafts, polished article manuscripts, grant proposals, books chapters, and other work. While members’ interests are diverse, the Cluster has focused on providing constructive and meaningful feedback at every stage. In keeping with the global and transnational spirit of the section, the section has members from, literally, around the world.

Research Cluster Leader

Shai M. Dromi: shai.dromi@g.harvard.edu

Shai Dromi is a cultural and comparative-historical sociologist with research on international humanitarian organizations and movements, transnational advocacy, and political culture. His research looks at how global organizations and movements emerge, at their international dynamics, and at their interface with nationally-specific institutions and culture. In addition, his research examines how organizations, professions, and groups generate beliefs about the common good, and how those beliefs translate into concrete institutional arrangements.
