Paul DiMaggio

Paul DiMaggio is professor of sociology at New York University and professor emeritus of sociology and public affairs at Princeton University, where he taught from 1992 to 2016. His work deals with the intersections of culture, organization, and politics. Current projects concern how organizations identify good ideas under deadline pressure, how social networks influence inequality, and how the pandemic may influence intergroup relations in the US. icon
