On November 21, 2019, CASBS hosted a reception in celebration of director Margaret Levi, 25th Laureate of the Johan Skytte Prize in Political Science. Here is a photo album from that gathering.
A pioneer in social and cultural psychology, Markus has broadened and deepened our understanding of how cultural contexts – including nation of origin, gender, and social class – shape self, identity, and agency, and demonstrated the importance of this understanding for solving urgent social problems. She will deliver a public award lecture on May 7, 2026, at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences.
The former California Supreme Court justice and CASBS board chair will return to the university to serve as CASBS director. He also will rejoin the faculty at Stanford Law School and direct the Knight-Henessy Scholars.
