The Institute for Advanced Study is thrilled to announce the 2024–25 (In)Justice Series on Just Policing. In conversation with community activists and leading scholars, we will critically examine how policing intersects with broader societal issues across the globe and explore efforts to reform, transform, or abolish policing.

We are delighted to announce that Jen K. AlVarez Hughes has been appointed the next managing director of the Institute for Advanced Study. Dr. AlVarez Hughes will succeed Susannah Smith, who will serve as acting director of the IAS while Bianet Castellanos, IAS director, is on sabbatical for the 2024-25 academic year.
