SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Conference: China Rising
DESCRIPTION:On May 2 and 3\, UC Santa Barbara is hosting a group of scholars\, Ford Foundation project officers\, film makers and movement leaders on campus. \nThis group from China\, Brazil and Ecuador offers novel “southern” or subaltern perspectives on China’s massive contemporary presence in Africa\, Middle East and Latin America. This process of Chinese engagement across the continents of the global south may represent one of the most significant global-scale transformations of our era\, challenging us to think differently about south-south relations\, environmental politics\, area studies\, history\, geopolitics\, and social change. This group of visitors to our campus utilize lenses of gender\, sexuality and race to address these questions of culture\, infrastructure and globalization to contextualize “China Rising” or “China Stepping out into the World.” \n‘CHINA RISING’ CONFERENCE INAUGURAL EVENT \n3pm-7pm: THURSDAY\, May 2nd:  Multicultural Center Theater:  \n3pm: SCREENING OF FILM: “Wolf Warrior II” – This 2017 action film traces the adventures of a charismatic ex-soldier from China as he journeys through Africa struggling with mercenaries\, pirates and insurgents\, to rescue Chinese factory workers and African children. The film was a massive global blockbuster that earned more at the box office than any other film in Chinese history. Although jingoistic and nationalist on its surface\, the film reveals complexities of gender\, race\, imperialism\, capitalism and sexuality\, as well as military industries\, container shipping economies\, and medical-humanitarian logics. \n5pm:  KEYNOTE TALK:  Dr. Petrus Liu\, Boston University. “Rethinking Gender/Sexuality through the Cultural Politics of China Rising.”  Prof. Liu is the author of Stateless Subjects (2011) and Queer Marxism in Two Chinas (2015). \n6pm: PANEL ROUNDTABLE: “China Rising: Transregional Research and Intersections of Gender\, Sexuality\, Race\, Infrastructure and Culture\,” featuring Paul Amar (UCSB)\, Lisa Rofel (UCSC)\, Cai Yiping (DAWN\, Beijing)\, Petrus Lui (Boston University)\, Huang Yingying (Renmin University\, Beijing)\, He Xiaopei (Pink Space Beijing)\, Laura Waisbich (Articulação Sul\, Brazil\, and Cambridge University)\, Maria Amelia Viteri Burbano (USF de Quito\, Ecuador) \n1pm: FRIDAY\, May 3rd: HSSB 6020: OPEN Student Researcher Workshop \n1pm: Student Researcher Workshop\, beginning with screening of a short film by He Xiaopei\, “Our Marriages: Lesbians Marry Gay Men\,” and discussion with the film’s director about mixing research\, film and public engagement. \n2pm: MENTORING and GRANT-WRITING WORKSHOP.  Graduate students are invited to present abstracts of their research. Advanced undergrads are also invited to present brief summaries of their research interests.  Our international guest scholars will engage with the students and offer mentorship in terms of researching transregionally (China\, Americas\, Africa\, Middle East) and intersectionally (gender\, sexuality\, race\, coloniality). Guests will offer advice about grant writing and fellowship applications. \n3pm. Friday\, May 3rd:  HSSB 6020: FACULTY ROUNDTABLE \n3pm: Faculty Roundtable: “Global\, Area Studies and Comparative Studies and Transregional China” \nUCSB Dean of Social Sciences Prof. Charles Hale will lead a discussion between the guest researchers\, and UCSB specialists in Latin American Studies\, Middle Eastern Studies\, African Studies and Global Studies\, to articulate new methods and agendas for area/global studies and for engaged research in all disciplines\, grappling with the dilemmas of south-south relations and China’s “stepping out” into the world. \nThis series of events and conferences has been organized by Prof. Paul Amar (Global Studies Department\, UCSB)\, and by Prof. Lisa Rofel (Center for Emerging Worlds\, UCSC)\, with generous support from the Ford Foundation and the UCSB Multicultural Center and the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center’s New Sexualities Research Focus Group.

SUMMARY:6th Annual GCLR Conference: Memory and Movement
DESCRIPTION:The Graduate Center for Literary Research (GCLR)\, in collaboration with UCSB’s Memory Studies Reading Group\, is hosting an interdisciplinary conference examining the interplay between memory and movement through a wide range of perspectives and disciplines. \nMichael Rothberg will deliver the keynote address on “The Implicated Subject: Art\, Activism\, and Historical Responsibility.” Arguing that the familiar categories of victim\, perpetrator\, and bystander do not adequately account for our connection to injustices past and present\, Rothberg offers a new theory of historical responsibility through the figure of the implicated subject. Implicated subjects occupy positions aligned with power and privilege without being themselves direct agents of harm; they contribute to\, inhabit\, inherit\, or benefit from regimes of domination but do not originate or control such regimes. Drawing on his forthcoming book The Implicated Subject: Beyond Victims and Perpetrators\, Rothberg will discuss examples of implication taken from different national contexts\, including South Africa and the United States\, and from different social realms\, including art and activism. The lecture will illustrate how the position of the implicated subject can offer a lens for addressing different scales and temporalities of injustice\, but can also provide a lever for rethinking resistance and solidarity across social location. \nMichael Rothberg is the 1939 Society Samuel Goetz Chair in Holocaust Studies and Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of California\, Los Angeles. His latest book is The Implicated Subject: Beyond Victims and Perpetrators (2019)\, which is being published by Stanford University Press in their “Cultural Memory in the Present” series. Previous books include Multidirectional Memory: Remembering the Holocaust in the Age of Decolonization (2009)\, Traumatic Realism: The Demands of Holocaust Representation (2000)\, and\, co-edited with Neil Levi\, The Holocaust: Theoretical Readings (2003). With Yasemin Yildiz\, he is currently completing Inheritance Trouble: Migrant Archives of Holocaust Remembrance for Fordham University Press. \nPlease visit our website (https://gclr.complit.ucsb.edu/) for the schedule of events and additional information.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: The Dirt on Rubbish: What Discard Tells us about Home Life in Roman Egypt
DESCRIPTION:This paper explores activities of cleaning and disposing because they represent key principles of social organization. Close attention to discard behavior helps us to understand how people related to the material goods and places that once made up their object worlds – their material habitus (c.f. Meskell\, 2005: 3). Human relationships to defilement\, in particular\, must be seen in in the context of how human identity as a rational being is established and maintained (Kristeva\, 1982; Lagerspetz 2018). Unlike other social practices in the life history of settlements\, rubbish disposal represents a critical component of the archaeological record (Rathje & Murphy\, 2001). In this paper\, I argue that a close examination of rubbish and waste depositions\, along with the discarded items themselves\, might be able to tell us about social values in the houses of Roman Egypt. Additionally\, activities such as disposal and recycling help to reveal the complex life cycles of houses\, which have typically been understood only as loci of consumption and (more recently) production. \nTo this end\, I compare case studies of cleanliness and rubbish disposal practices from a range of Romano-Egyptian settlements\, including refined evidence from recent domestic excavations (e.g. Trimithis (Roman Amheida)) as well as sites from which we have a large amount of legacy data (e.g. Karanis\, Soknopaiou Nesos\, Oxyrhynchus). These disposal practices are then situated within the global context of rubbish disposal. By exploring Romano-Egyptian waste disposal in a comparative manner\, this paper demonstrates that rubbish can tell us an enormous amount about identity construction\, the maintenance of communal traditions\, and dwelling as place-making. \nAnna Lucille Boozer is an Associate Professor at Baruch College and the Graduate Center at the City University of New York (CUNY). Her research focuses on Roman Egypt\, Meroitic Sudan\, empires\, and everyday life. She directs the CUNY excavations at Amheida (Egypt) and the Meroe Archival Project (Sudan). \nSponsored by the IHC’s Ancient Borderlands Research Focus Group

SUMMARY:Talk: Towards a Palestinian Third Cinema
DESCRIPTION:In the 1970s\, the filmmakers Masao Adachi and Jean-Luc Godard each created a sophisticated essay film that used the Palestinian revolution to reflect questions of truth\, representation\, media circuits\, and the relationships that can and cannot be formed through them. This talk shifts attention away from these well-known works to focus on the films Palestinians themselves were making at this time\, exploring how they engaged differently with the ideas that animated Adachi and Godard\, as well as those articulated in the third cinema texts of Latin American filmmakers. \n  \nNadia Yaqub (PhD University of California\, Berkeley\, 1999)\, is professor of Arabic language and culture in the department of Asian studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her research addresses film\, gender\, and literature from the Arab world. She is the author of Pens\, Swords\, and the Springs of Art: The Oral Poetry Dueling of Weddings in the Galilee (Brill\, 2006) and Palestinian Cinema in the Days of Revolution (University of Texas Press\, 2018). She has also coedited Bad Girls of the Arab World (University of Texas Press\, 2017) with Rula Quawas. \nSponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies and International History and the Center for Middle Eastern Studies

SUMMARY:CHIMERA: A Public Reading
DESCRIPTION:CHIMERA is a science fiction play set in 2050 that centers around a love triangle and an artificially intelligent firefighting cyborg named AICH#805. Entertaining the fate of human existence in an era of climate change\, the play discusses technological innovations that move us closer to “the singularity”—the moment when super-intelligent machines evolve without human assistance—as we simultaneously grapple with the more immediate threat of environmental collapse. Our main characters must reconcile the past and save humanity before being expelled from planet Earth. \nArtist Maiza Hixson studied at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and has exhibited and performed widely at such venues as: the Brooklyn Museum of Art; Baltimore Contemporary (Koban); Soap Factory\, Minneapolis; Portland Institute for Contemporary Art; Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art; Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery\, Haverford; University of the Arts\, Philadelphia\, and beyond. \nSponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center and UCSB’s Art Department

SUMMARY:Talk: The Cold War's Killing Fields: Rethinking the Long Peace
DESCRIPTION:Paul Thomas Chamberlin argues that the Cold War\, long regarded as a mostly peaceful\, if tense\, diplomatic standoff between the West and East blocs\, fostered a series of deadly conflicts that killed millions on battlegrounds across the postcolonial world. For half a century\, as an uneasy accord hung over Europe\, ferocious wars raged in the Cold War’s killing fields\, resulting in more than fourteen million dead—victims who remain largely forgotten. In chronicling this violent history\, Professor Chamberlin proposes a new geography and periodization and explores the lasting political impact of mass violence after 1945. \n  \n \nPaul Thomas Chamberlin is Associate Professor of History at Columbia University. His first book\, The Global Offensive: The United States\, the Palestine Liberation Organization\, and the Making of the Post-Cold War Order\, was published by Oxford University Press in 2012. His most recent book\, The Cold War’s Killing Fields: Rethinking the Long Peace\, was published by HarperCollins in 2018. \n  \nSponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies and International History and the Department of History

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Land\, Lineage\, Embodied Practices\, and the Khora of Migration: Himalayan Lives Between Nepal and New York
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will explore what it means for people from Mustang\, Nepal\, including those who have migrated to New York\, to care for each other\, steward a homeland across time and space\, remake home elsewhere\, and confront distinct forms of happiness and suffering through these movements. How do people honor and alter their shared responsibilities and senses of connection to people and place through migration? How do different generations abide with each other\, even when they struggle to understand each other? Craig recruits the Himalayan/Tibetan concept of khora—the embodied act of circumambulation as well as a Buddhist philosophical principle that reflects the nature of desire\, interdependence\, and cyclic existence—to theorize cycles of mobility and patterns of world-making between Nepal and New York. She will interrogate the ways in which migration impacts the bodies and heart-minds of individuals and households as well as how shifts in physical geographies at once reflect and are shaped by understandings of sacred geography that give meaning to land and lineage\, up close and from a distance. \nSienna R. Craig is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Dartmouth College. Her publications include Healing Elements: Efficacy and the Social Ecologies of Tibetan Medicine (2012); Horses Like Lightning: A Story of Passage through the Himalaya (2008); Mustang in Black and White\, a collaboration with photographer Kevin Bubriski (2018); and a forthcoming monograph\, The Ends of Kinship: Himalayan Communities between Nepal and New York. Craig enjoys writing across genres\, from narrative ethnography to creative nonfiction\, fiction\, children’s literature\, and poetry. \nSponsored by the IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group\, Dalai Lama Endowment\, and Division of Humanities and Fine Arts

SUMMARY:Disquantified Conference: Higher Education in the Age of Metrics
DESCRIPTION:Disquantified: Higher Education in the Age of Metrics\nwww.disquantified.org\nMay 16-17\, 2019\nLoma Pelona Center and the UCen (Harbor Room) \nMetrics are transforming higher education. The Disquantified conference explores how they are changing teaching\, research\, and governance in universities. Our questions include: \n\nHow are citation analytics affecting the direction of academic research and publishing?\nAre wage data influencing how students choose majors?\nAre faculty teaching differently as assessment becomes learning analytics?\nHave performance indicators changed public funding and oversight?\nGiven these trends\, how might faculty\, students\, and staff respond?\n\nPlease join us as we host an interdisciplinary cast of scholars for lively discussion about how we can use (and when we should reject) higher education metrics. Our goal is to make the university a more exciting\, energizing\, and equitable place. Faculty\, students\, and staff members from all disciplines are welcome. \nFor the full program and more information\, visit www.disquantified.org. \nSponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, National Endowment for the Humanities\, Chicano Studies Institute\, Office of the Chancellor\, Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor\, Office of Research\, Associate Vice Chancellor for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion\, College of Letters and Science\, Division of Humanities and Fine Arts\, Gevirtz Graduate School of Education\, Department of English

SUMMARY:"Disrupt and Advance": The 25th Annual Conference on Language\, Interaction\, and Social Organization (LISO)
DESCRIPTION:The LISO conference promotes interdisciplinary research and discussion in the analysis of naturally occurring human interaction. Papers will be presented by national and international scholars on a variety of topics in the study of language\, interaction\, and culture. \nThis year’s conference theme is “Disrupt and Advance.” We understand ‘disrupt’ broadly as actions or ideas that intervene in or challenge the established theoretical\, institutional\, or narrative frame. The emphasis on disruption is an intentional examination of disciplinary constraints. By including ‘advance’ we hope to encourage submissions that operationalize critique into praxis. We welcome papers that engage in a critique of disciplinary conventions or somehow broaden the scope of (inter)disciplinary research\, presenting innovative models for paths forward. \nFor more information visit  http://liso.ucsblinguist.org/ \nSponsored by the IHC’s Language\, Interaction\, and Social Organization (LISO) Research Focus Group\, Graduate Division\, Linguistics Department\, Education Department\, Sociology Department\, and the Communication Department.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Workshop: Personhood: Do We Make It or Know It?
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will discuss the precirculated first chapter from Jeannine DeLombard’s current book manuscript\, “Bound to Respect: Democratic Dignity and the Indignities of Slavery.” \nFor many of us today\, the artifice of legal personhood – the corporate person in particular – provokes outrage. Focusing on the legal fiction of slave personhood\, this paper argues that in the 19th-century U.S.\, the greater danger came from naturalizing this artifice by attaching it to actual African American people\, regardless of condition. This reconsideration of legal personhood contributes to current efforts by political theorists\, legal historians\, classicists\, and philosophers to historicize the concept of dignity prior to the 20th-century human rights regime. DeLombard contends that what critic and novelist Ralph Ellison once called “the indignities of slavery” pertained less to the metaphysical value of humans than to the status of legal persons. Brown-bag lunches are welcome. \nJeannine DeLombard is Associate Professor of English at UC Santa Barbara. She is the author of In the Shadow of the Gallows: Race\, Crime\, and American Civic Identity (Penn\, 2012) and Slavery on Trial: Law\, Abolitionism\, and Print Culture (UNC\, 2007). \nSponsored by the IHC’s Slavery\, Captivity\, and the Meaning of Freedom Research Focus Group

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Mediterranean Pathways: GIS\, Network Analysis\, and the Ancient World
DESCRIPTION:We live in a world of maps and networks. GPS enabled phones allow us to instantly locate ourselves on the earth’s surface\, guide us to stores or restaurants\, or announce to the world our location through social media. Likewise\, programs like Google Earth and desktop Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have revolutionized our engagement with maps\, map-making\, and have challenged traditional notions of space and place. \nThe proliferation of GIS technologies and the “spatial turn” in digital humanities has also provided new avenues for challenging assumptions about the representations of past societies\, the nature of empire\, and the reach of imperial power. Despite their aesthetic beauty\, traditional print maps\, with clearly delineated static borders\, often artificial naming conventions\, and fixed viewpoints do not convey the complexity and uncertainty of the past. \nAncient societies and empires were far from static; they were networks of complex interactions and fierce contestation which unfolded in geographic space. This talk demonstrates how the use of new digital methodologies\, gazetteers\, and Linked Open Data (LOD) resources can be used to model and study these networks\, and how new mapping techniques are transforming our understanding of ancient empire. Using the Attalid Kingdom as a guide\, this talk examines the theory and practicalities of building an entity-relationship gazetteer and how to align it with LOD resources. It then addresses the construction of networks in desktop software\, the impact of networks on cartography\, and how new maps and digital models provided unique insights into the study of ancient Greek garrisons. The talk will then end with a brief overview of how Pleiades and other ancient world digital initiatives\, including the Pelagios project’s Recogito platform\, are developing new tools to enable the research and mapping of ancient networks. \nRyan Horne earned his Ph.D. at the University of North Carolina\, where he had the opportunity to work extensively with the Ancient World Mapping Center. He is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow with the Department of History and the World History Center at the University of Pittsburgh. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Ancient Borderlands Research Focus Group

SUMMARY:Talk: Black Like Moi: Performing Race with Rouch and Cassavetes
DESCRIPTION:This paper analyzes interactions between blacks and whites depicted between 1957 and 1961 in Jean Rouch’s I\, a Black Man\, The Human Pyramide\, and Chronicle of a Summer. It concludes with remarks on Shadows\, a 1958-59 feature film by John Cassavetes often credited as a breakthrough in U.S. independent filmmaking. In so doing\, I mean to explore what Rouch and Cassavetes were trying to accomplish through production practices that bordered on the experimental. Major topics to be raised include: (1) what reading across these films completed on opposite sides of the Atlantic discloses concerning cinematic treatments of relations between blacks and whites between 1957 and 1961; and (2) how such cross-reading contributes to a fuller understanding of Rouch’s films in a transnational context. \n  \nSteven Ungar has taught French literature & thought\, Comparative Literature\, Translation\, & Film at The University of Iowa since 1976. His latest publications include Critical Mass: Social Documentary in France from the Silent Era to the New Wave (University of Minnesota Press\, 2018) as well as book chapters on Louis Malle’s Lacombe Lucien and on Chantal Akerman’s La Captive. \n  \nIn addition to this scheduled talk\, the films under discussion will be shown in a morning lecture course (101C: New Waves Cinema) for which you are invited to join us for the following screenings: \n  \nChronique d’un été [Chronicle of a Summer] (dir. Jean Rouch and Edgar Morin\, 1961\, 90′): Pollock Theater\, Tuesday\, May 21 at 10 am \n  \nMoi\, Un Noir [I\, A Black Man] (dir. Jean Rouch\, 1958\, 73′): Pollock Theater\, Thursday\, May 23 at 9:30 am\, followed by a discussion between Peter Bloom and Steven Ungar \n  \nThis talk is co-sponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, GCLR\, CWC\, 21st Century Global Dynamics Initiative\, Department of French and Italian\, the African Studies RFG\, and the Department of Film and Media Studies.
