  Shmuel Eisenstadt Professor of Sociology Van Leer Institute, Jerusalem
  ...
  Shmuel Eisenstadt is Rose Isaacs Professor of Sociology Emeritus at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and works at the Van Leer Center. In his work he applies a comparative-studies approach to Jewish, Japanese, and European cultures. He is known worldwide as a synthesizer and a bridge-builder to other disciplines, and for having coined the concept of "multiple modernities", according to which each civilization has its own modernity, with its own strengths and weaknesses. This concept is antithetical to that of a clash of civilizations. Shmuel Eisenstadt is the author of Tradition, Change and Modernity (Krieger, 1992); (ed.) Multiple Modernities (Transaction Publishers, 2002).
