Immanuel Wallerstein, renowned sociologist and economic historian,\u00a0died\u00a0at the age of eight-eight on August\u00a031, 2019.\u00a0His\u00a0pioneering\u00a0work on world systems theory laid the foundation for\u00a0generations\u00a0of scholars in global and transnational sociology.\u00a0<\/p>

Wallerstein’s thinking was forged during the twenty years he spent travelling in Africa during\u00a0the 1950s and 1960s, observing and\u00a0researching<\/a>\u00a0<\/a>the continent’s mass movements for decolonization. Throughout his subsequent intellectual career, Wallerstein inspired students to think\u00a0globally, historically, and\u00a0critically about the origins and causes of social inequalities through capital accumulation. Alongside his three part magnum opus,\u00a0The Modern World-System<\/a>, his other notable works include\u00a0Transforming the Revolution<\/a>\u00a0(with Amin, Arrighi, and Frank),\u00a0Race, Nation, Class<\/a>\u00a0(with\u00a0\u00c9tienne\u00a0<\/a>Balibar), and\u00a0After Liberalism<\/a>.<\/a><\/p>

\u200b<\/span>In addition to\u00a0his scholarly work, Wallerstein maintained a blog where he posted twice a month. His 500th and final post can be read\u00a0here<\/a>. Members may also be interested in a wonderful\u00a0interview<\/a>\u00a0he did in 2010 with the great Grace Lee Boggs. Also, see the following links for obituaries:<\/p>
