Tenure of <strong>the</strong> American Association of University Professors. In December 1999, she<br />

was awarded <strong>the</strong> Hans Sigrist Prize <strong>for</strong> excellence in scholarly research (in her case <strong>for</strong><br />

her work in Gender Studies) by <strong>the</strong> University of Bern (Switzerland). She is in <strong>the</strong><br />

process of writing a hook on <strong>the</strong> French movement <strong>for</strong> "parite," <strong>the</strong> recent successful<br />

attempt to grant equal participation in politics to men and women.<br />

During <strong>the</strong> <strong>academic</strong> <strong>year</strong> 1999-2000, PROFESSOR MICHAEL WALZER gave <strong>the</strong><br />

Tasan Memorial lectures at four universities in Korea, and also lectured at Princeton and<br />

Columbia Universities, at Boston College, <strong>the</strong> University of San Diego, and <strong>the</strong> Catholic<br />

Theological Union in Chicago. He spoke in Frankfurt on <strong>the</strong> occasion of <strong>the</strong> 75' h<br />

anniversary of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>for</strong> Social Research, gave <strong>the</strong> keynote address at a conference<br />

on multiculturalism at <strong>the</strong> University of Santiago de Compostela in Spain, and lectured<br />

on global governance (<strong>the</strong> subject also of his faculty lecture at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Institute</strong>) at <strong>the</strong><br />

University of Padua in Italy. In May 2000, volume one of The Jewish Political Tradition,<br />

titled Authority, was published by Yale University Press, a collaborative project that he<br />

has been working on <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> past decade. His Horkheimer lectures were published in<br />

Germany under <strong>the</strong> title Vemunft, Politik and Leidenshaft (Reason, Politics, and Passion).<br />

Two of his books, The Company of Critics and On Toleration appeared in Russian trans-<br />

lations; Spheres of Justice came out in Japanese and Korean; On Toleration also appeared<br />

in Portugese, Greek, Bulgarian, and Hebrew.<br />
