The German Historical Institute cordially invites you to the Farewell lecture of Professor Hartmut Berghoff, Director of the German Historical Institute.
Speaker: Hartmut Berghoff (GHI Washington)
Hartmut Berghoff has been the Director of the German Historical Institute since April 2008. His tenure at the Institute has coincided with some of the most consequential events of the twenty-first century, including the 2008 financial crisis, the election of Barack Obama and the increasing polarization of American politics, and the Euro and sovereign debt crisis.
In a farewell lecture marking the end of his time in Washington, Professor Berghoff will take stock of this fractious period in American history from his perspective as an economic historian. He will also look forward to the continued challenges to the American and global economy.
The lecture will begin at 6:30 pm at the German Historical Institute (Directions) and will be followed by a dinner reception. Please RSVP (acceptances only) by June 17. Tel. 202.387.3355, Fax 202.387.6437 or E-mail.
