Vietnam War, Micronesia, Full Professor of Anthropology and International Affairs **Link to Glenn's new book at the bottom of the page**

Glenn Petersen has been a professor at the City University of New York’s Baruch College and Graduate Center since 1977; he teaches anthropology, international affairs, and geography. He’s worked as an ethnographer in the Pacific Ocean’s remote Micronesian islands, studying Micronesians’ traditional forms of chieftainship, their struggles to achieve independence, and the ways they’ve adapted their own political theories to constitutional forms of government. He served as a member of the Federated States of Micronesia’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations after they achieved independence. War and the Arc of Human Experience, which Rowman & Littlefield/Hamilton just published, is his sixth book. He lives in New York City, is an avid Yankees fan (it’s just a short walk from his home to the stadium), and recently became a grandfather for the first time. He was in the US Navy 1964-68, and as 19-year-old second class petty officer flew 70 combat missions in 1966-67 as a radar intercept controller/flight technician on E-1Bs off the USS Bennington on Yankee Station.​
