CHID affiliate faculty member Kevin Y. Kim has been selected to be a faculty fellow at the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History at Harvard University. As a Warren fellow in residence for the upcoming 2018-2019 academic year, Kim will work on his current book project, Worlds Unseen: Henry Wallace, Herbert Hoover, and the Making of Cold War America.
Joining a yearlong seminar led by Harvard historians Fredrik Logevall and Erez Manela, Kim and other internationally recognized scholars will examine work based on the seminar theme, “U.S. Power in the Global Arena.” Invigorated by the insights, themes, and approaches of diverse fields and daily headlines in today’s global arena, Kim and his fellow Warren Center participants will interrogate the multiple contexts, domestic as well as international, of U.S. foreign relations—considering U.S. power’s diplomatic, military, economic, cultural, and social manifestations, as well as various locales from high state politics, global conflicts, and international organizations to non-state actors, intellectual currents, and social movements.
