 THE NEW SCHOOL FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH
Among non-economists, the New School acquired the Gestalt psychologist Max Werthheimer, sociologist Max Ascoli, philosopher Leo Strauss, political scientist Max Lerner and the dramatist Erwin Piscator.
The post-war years were made difficult for the New School by the return of scholars back to Europe or their move to other American universities.
In the 1990s, Lance Taylor and Duncan Foley joined the New School economics department and the Center for Economic Policy Analysis (CEPA) was founded to further the links between the New School's unique and refreshing perspective and the economic world.

 Economics - The New School for Social Research
The Department of Economics offers a broad and critical approach to the study of economics, covering a wide range of schools of thought, including Keynesian and post-Keynesian economics; the classical political economy of Smith, Ricardo, and Marx; structuralist and institutionalist approaches to economics; and neoclassical economics.
The courses of study emphasize the historical roots of economic ideas, their application to contemporary economic policy debates, and conflicting explanations and interpretations of economic phenomena, within the context of a rigorous training in the conceptual, mathematical, and statistical modeling techniques that are the common methodological basis of contemporary economic research.
The aim of the Economics department is to put what Robert Heilbroner called "the worldly philosophy"—informed, critical, and passionate investigation of the economic foundations of contemporary society—at the heart of the educational and research enterprise.

 S. Packer: Psychology and Religion, New School for Social Research
We will be visiting the Psychology and Religion Website to see syllabuses from other classes on Psychology and Religion, discussing the advantages and disadvantages to studying religion from a social science perspective, and comparing the psychological perspective to the sociological and the anthropological and the political.
Very much in touch with the conservative ethos of our times, this book will show us how social attitudes changed in a short time, and how much such attitude shifts are mirrored in supposedly scientific studies.
In class discussion, we will also consider the roles of social pressure, isolation, altered states of consciousness in "cults", and will attempt to define what a "cult" is. Through this topic, we will touch on the contributions of sociological, anthropological and political analysis of religious phenomena.
