Giovanni Arrighi
1937 - 2009
We created this website so that Giovanni's (Nanni's) family, friends, students & colleagues from around the world can share tributes, stories, memories & photos about Giovanni. We will also post here (under the calendar tab) details about memorials and other events, which are currently being planned in different parts of the world. (To contribute a story, click on "create a story".)
There is a wonderful interview with Giovanni on his life-long intellectual trajectory, which was published in the March-April 2009 issue of New Left Review. You can read it here:

You can find Giovanni's c.v. and selected pubications at his Johns Hopkins University home page. (We are still updating the biographical statement on that page. Right now it jumps from Africa to Johns Hopkins; but we'll fix it shortly.)
