The Center for Science and Society, along with its co-sponsors - Heyman Center for the Humanities, the Institute for Social and Economic Research and Policy, and Teachers College - are proud to present the event reports and session recordings from "The Success of Failure: Perspectives from the Arts, Sciences, Humanities, Education, and Law" conference, held December 7-8, 2017.
"The Success of Failure" explored the broad typology of failure across disciplines by offering perspectives from law, psychology, tech startups, education, experimental theater, and jazz music – just to name a few. Each field discussed its own struggles and solutions as participants and audience members grappled with the central question: How do we reconcile the contradictions of success and failure?
