Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who died last March at age 76, represented New York in the U.S. Senate for four terms. He was before and during his time in the Senate a scholar, policy expert, and public intellectual who addressed important social issues and never shied away from controversy. Many of the issues he took up as a scholar and as a politician are still alive and controversial. A panel of distinguished scholars, journalists, and critics reflects on his legacy: E.J. Dionne, Washington Post; Nathan Glazer, author of We Are All Multicultural Now; Jennifer Hochschild, author of Facing Up to the American Dream; Diane Lewis, Department of Architecture, Cooper Union; Orlando Patterson, Professor of Sociology, Harvard; and David Plotke, author of Building a Democratic Political Order. Presented by the Wolfson Center for National Affairs.
