A High-Profile Departure
A notable shift is occurring in the academic landscape as three prominent Yale University professors, all known for their scholarship on fascism and critical perspectives on the Trump administration, have announced their departure for the University of Toronto.
- Jason Stanley, a distinguished philosopher and author of "How Fascism Works";
- Timothy Snyder, a renowned historian and author of "The Road to Unfreedom"; and
- Marci Shore, a historian specializing in European intellectual history and author of "The Ukrainian Night,"
are all moving to Toronto's prestigious Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy. This collective move by scholars deeply engaged with issues of democracy and authoritarianism raises significant questions about the current climate within American higher education. The exodus has begun.
