SUMMARY:Crossings+Boundaries TALK: Opening the Gates of Heaven: Religious and Philosophical Implications of Space Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Religion and philosophy have always been present in human space exploration\, in the form of religious rituals practiced during space missions\, placement of sacred objects in space\, and astronauts’ descriptions of transcendental changes in perspective when looking back on Earth. Space exploration also poses ethical\, religious\, and philosophical challenges. How\, for example\, do we protect other celestial bodies from contamination by human space exploration? How do we protect the Earth from contamination by extraterrestrial samples brought back on spaceships? How will human society be represented to extraterrestrial beings? What are the wide-ranging implications of finding life in the universe? \nIn his talk\, Waltemathe will discuss these issues\, exploring questions that seem to belong to the realm of science fiction while focusing on scientifically plausible exploration scenarios. \nMichael Waltemathe is senior lecturer in the Department of Protestant Theology at Ruhr-University Bochum in Germany. He also serves as an officer of the Astrosociology Research Institute\, a non-profit educational organization dedicated to the development of astrosociology as a multidisciplinary academic field. Dr. Waltemathe is also a founding member of IASGAR\, the International Academy for the Study of Gaming and Religion. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Crossings + Boundaries series.\nImage credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/McGill

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: One and Indivisible? Slavery\, Federalism and Secessionism in the French-Haitian Revolution
DESCRIPTION:“The Republic is one and indivisible”: this principle was the founding dogma of the regime that emerged during the French Revolution. The Republic\, however\, still “owned” colonies and the plantation societies in the French West Indies could not be more at odds with the principle of universal equality. Was the regeneration effected by the Revolution compatible with the maintenance of a colonial empire? This paper will explore the heated colonial debates on French federalism\, secessionism\, and slavery in the age of Atlantic revolutions. \nProfessor Covo is a historian of the transition from early modern to modern European colonialism in the long eighteenth century. He specializes in French imperialism\, political economy and Atlantic revolutions\, with a special focus on the impact of the Haitian Revolution on France and the United States. \nSponsored by IHC’s Slavery\, Captivity\, and the Meaning of Freedom RFG.

SUMMARY:RESEARCH FOCUS GROUP TALK: BEYOND BOKO HARAM: WRITING THE HISTORY OF BORNO
DESCRIPTION:  \nHiribarren addresses the issue of presentism in historical writing in an African context. The region of Borno in Nigeria is well known for being the cradle of Boko Haram and many analysts have tried to understand the reasons behind the numerous terrorist attacks since 2009\, the kidnapping of the Chibok girls in 2014\, or the renewed jihad in West Africa. Writing the history of the northeastern corner of Nigeria remains difficult because of the security situation – of course – but also because of the pressure exerted by the current events on academic writing. Can we write the history of Borno beyond Boko Haram?’ \nVincent Hiribarren is a Senior Lecturer in Modern African History at King’s College London and Co-founder of Africa4\, a Libération blog. He received his MA from Sorbonne University and his PhD from University of Leeds. Dr. Hiribarren trained as a History and Geography teacher and taught in France\, China\, Guinea and England. From 2008 to 2012\, he undertook a PhD on the history of Borno\, Nigeria at the University of Leeds. His thesis was titled: “From a kingdom to a Nigerian state: the territory and boundaries of Borno 1810-2010”. From January to June 2013\, he was a Leverhulme teaching fellow at the University of Leeds and joined the History Department at King’s College London in September 2013.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Buddhism and Sexuality: A Primer
DESCRIPTION:Although an ascetic religion that touts celibacy as the norm (at least for the clergy)\, Buddhism has a lot to say about sexuality. José Cabezón’s talk will focus on ancient South Asian sources and will present an overview of what classical Buddhist authors have had to say about sex. Based on his recently published book\, Sexuality in Classical South Asian Buddhism (Wisdom Publications\, 2017)\, the talk will explore the themes of sexuality in Buddhist cosmological writings\, the Buddhist theory of sexual desire\, the interventions that monks and nuns have used to counteract desire\, Buddhist ideas of sexual deviance\, and Buddhist sexual ethics. \nJosé Cabezón is Professor of Religious Studies and the XIVth Dalai Lama Professor of Tibetan Buddhism and Cultural Studies at UCSB. His wide-ranging research interests in various aspects of Tibetan religious traditions and religious studies include Madhyamaka philosophy\, gender and sexuality\, classical South Asian political ethics\, and Tibetan rituals.

SUMMARY:IHC Fellow TALK: Plastic China\, Plastic Chain: An Inconvenient Truth about Recycling
DESCRIPTION:Until the Chinese government’s new trade policy on waste importation this year\, the environmental and practical impact of the global waste trade has been largely absent from US scientific and theoretical studies on waste. These new policies\, however\, are predicted to have a catastrophic impact on the American scrap recycling industry and have therefore ignited a conversation. This talk uses the lens of the critically acclaimed yet domestically banned documentary Plastic China (2016) by Jiuliang Wang to investigate both industrial statistics and out-of-sight practices of plastic scrap recycling. It is only when the “foreign” part of the story is told that we can rethink “recycling\,” which is itself a controversial packaging concept of consumer culture. The global fluidity of waste engages and enriches theories about plasticity\, plastic-organism contact\, environmental justice\, political economy\, and documentary intervention\, as well as intimately connects to our everyday lives. \nInez Xingyue Zhou (Ph.D.\, Comparative Literature\, UCSB) is a Recent-PhD Fellow at the IHC who specializes in modern and contemporary poetics and waste aesthetics. \nSponsored by the IHC.

SUMMARY:CONFERENCE: The XXI Colloquium on Mexican Literature\, "Nepantla\, Between Comala and California\, and Other Crossroads"
DESCRIPTION:Department of Spanish and Portuguese\, University of Santa Barbara & UC-Mexicanistas (Intercampus Research Program) \nJust as we were in the middle of organizing this colloquium\, creatively and excitedly\, we suddenly learned of the devastation in Texas\, México (Oaxaca\, Chiapas\, Morelos)\, Florida\, Cuba\, Puerto Rico.  We remained strong through this hardship.  On September 19\, ironically on the 32nd anniversary of the tragic 1985 Mexico City earthquake\, another earthquake struck again.   And yet\, in the midst of crisis\, we also witnessed people from all over the world coming together\, saving lives\, giving hope: solidarity.  Our countries are slowly rising\, again\, our spirits can only grow stronger in times of need.  Therefore\, we dedicate our colloquium to the victims and the people rebuilding their communities\, healing together. Because during times like these\, we must remind ourselves that only united can we endure anything. We salute you all. \nThis year we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of Juan Rulfo (1917-2017)\, author of El Llano en llamas (The Burning Plains and Other Stories) and Pedro Páramo. We also celebrate the 50 years of Cien años de soledad (One Hundred Years of Solitude). Gabriel García Márquez once said his novel was indebted to Pedro Páramo. \nBoth invite the reader to leave momentarily.  To go beyond two worlds\, two books\, and in between: Nepantla?  Commemorating the centenary of Juan Rulfo between two worlds\, two countries\, is a gesture of gratitude toward a brief but infinite piece of work\, compact and fragmented\, spoken and written—a pendulum between past and future (perhaps similar to our present?)—about violence and impunity\, the crucial crossing of borders\, of ghost towns\, of economic migrations\, of looting along the way\, of the daring and the embittered.  His brief literary work was premonitory: the violence\, the injustice\, diaspora\, and poverty that suffocates Mexico had already been referenced in Rulfo’s poetic words.  “Mexico isn’t finished yet\,” he once said\, and his words are like Articles of faith.  His work\, our Mexican Bible\, is the book of prayers that we read in and outside of Mexico. \nIn keeping with our tradition\, and sustained support at UCSB\, now a Hispanic Serving Institution\, given these urgent and uncertain times\, and with a daily commitment to affirming  a cultural image of Mexico outside of Mexico\, this twenty-first conference on Mexican literature centers on how Mexican cultural production travels\, crosses toward the North\, arrives at these latitudes.  We think above all about the connection between Juan Rulfo’s narrative—scenarios and characters—and the Latino communities on the map of the United States where\, as in Mexico and other places\, there are ghost towns\, men and women who recall the flight of a kite  during their childhood and remember this experience\, in their own language\, be it Mexican\, English\, or Spanglish. \nHence our colloquium focuses on the historical and geographical relationship between Comala (imaginary geography of Pedro Páramo) and California\, along with other destinations (and I refer to California\, the state where we are in this country\, Agripina\, but also to other states of which you know more).  The people of Comala may have left for California\, but they never really left.  Their mind and spirit remained in Comala.  Thus\, forming a suspended existence\, a place that is neither Comala\, nor California\, but Nepantla.  Agripina\, but also other states\, of which you know even more. \nIn spite of the rumors\, as Juan Rulfo would have said [and our mouths fill to repeat it]\, “Mexico is not finished.”  To stand up for Mexico (even while we’re abroad)\, is our obligation\, our ethical responsibility\, and our nobility. \nGeographically Nepantla is a Mexican town (Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz was born there). It is a word in Náhuatl that\, while itself a single word (prodigious of language)\, situates two places.  Beyond that\, it is also a concept and an identity. We are Nepantla\, meaning “in the middle\,” “between\,” “among\,” “in between.” Nepantla\, just one word refers to two worlds.  In the 16th century\, a member of the original peoples of the center of Mexico\, said to Fray Diego Durán\, “Do not be afraid\, Father\, because we are still Nepantla.” \nThursday\, November 9\, 2017 / 4:30 PM\nCentennial House\, UCSB\nFriday\, November 10\, 2017 / 9:00 AM\nCentennial House\, UCSB\nSaturday\, November 11\, 2017 / 9:00 AM\nAlhecama Theatre\, Santa Barbara

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: The Highway\, Automobility\, and New Promises in 1960s Bombay Cinema
DESCRIPTION:A fascination for color in the 1960s led to Bombay cinema’s mobilization of the hinterland as the site for a new future. With the development of Indian highways and an increase in automobility\, a new map of India now occupied the cinematic imagination. This talk will explore the links between the infrastructure of automobile culture\, the highway\, industrial development outside the city\, and 1960s Bombay Cinema. \nRanjani Mazumdar is Professor of Cinema Studies at the School of Arts and Aesthetics\, Jawaharlal Nehru University. Her publications focus on urban cultures\, popular cinema\, gender\, and the cinematic city. She is the author of Bombay Cinema: An Archive of the City (2007) and co-author with Nitin Govil of The Indian Film Industry (forthcoming). Her current research focuses on globalization and film culture\, the visual culture of film posters\, and the intersection of technology\, travel\, design\, and color in 1960s Bombay Cinema. \nSponsored by the Dept. of Film and Media Studies and the IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures RFG.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group TALK: The Chinese Typewriter: A History
DESCRIPTION:Chinese writing is character-based\, the one major world script that is neither alphabetic nor syllabic. Over the past two centuries\, Chinese script has encountered presumed alphabetic universalism at every turn\, whether in the form of Morse Code\, Braille\, stenography\, Linotype\, punch cards\, word processing\, or other systems developed with the Latin alphabet in mind. Today\, however\, after more than a century of resistance against the alphabetic\, not only have Chinese characters prevailed\, they form the linguistic substrate of the vibrant world of Chinese information technology. In this talk\, Stanford historian Tom Mullaney shows how this unlikely transformation happened\, by charting out a fascinating series of experiments\, prototypes\, failures\, and successes in the century-long struggle between Chinese characters and the QWERTY keyboard. \nThomas S. Mullaney is Associate Professor of Chinese History at Stanford University\, and Curator of the international exhibition\, “Radical Machines: Chinese in the Information Age.” His most recent book\, published with MIT Press in 2017\, is The Chinese Typewriter: A History. \nSponsored by the Dept. of History\, the East Asia Center\, and the IHC’s Machines\, People\, and Politics RFG.

SUMMARY:TALK: The Best Possible Immigrants: International Adoption and the American Family
DESCRIPTION:Prior to World War II\, international adoption was virtually unknown\, but in the twenty-first century\, it has become a common practice\, touching almost every American. How did the adoption of foreign children by U.S. families become an essential part of American culture in such a short period of time? Rachel Rains Winslow investigates this question\, following the trail from Europe to South Korea and then to Vietnam. The Best Possible Immigrants shows how a combination of domestic trends\, foreign policies\, and international instabilities created an environment in which adoption flourished. Winslow’s talk will bring this historical conversation up to the present. \nRachel Rains Winslow is Assistant Professor of History at Westmont College\, Director of Westmont’s Center for Social Entrepreneurship\, and Co-Director of Westmont’s Initiative for Public Dialogue. She is the author of The Best Possible Immigrants: International Adoption and the American Family (University of Pennsylvania Press\, 2017). She currently serves as a fellow with the Kettering Foundation\, working on the intersection between public deliberation and local action as a way to engage students in democracy. Her teaching\, research\, and community work bring together her interest in U.S. social policy\, social change practices\, and American political culture. \nSponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies and International History.
