In 2020, Prospect magazine named him one of “the world’s 50 top thinkers for the Covid-19 age.” Wertheim was a co-founder of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, where he served as Director of Grand Strategy. He has held faculty positions at Columbia University and Birkbeck, University of London, and postdoctoral research fellowships at King’s College, University of Cambridge, and Princeton University.
