SUMMARY:LECTURE: ROBERT VITALIS: ENDING OILCRAFT'S SPELL OVER US
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nIn his forthcoming book Robert Vitalis takes apart an ideological construction that he calls “Oilcraft\,” a set of deeply-held\, pervasive beliefs about the world\, together with the actions these vivid truths license—op eds and classified memoranda\, documentaries\, classroom lectures\, naval patrols and calls at port\, journal articles\, podcasts\, press conferences\, and protests\, to name a few. Oilcraft is the close kin not of statecraft or the art of diplomacy\, but witchcraft\, a kind of magical thinking on the part of many\, diplomats included\, about a commodity bought and sold on the New York Mercantile Exchange and elsewhere. The same as copper\, coal\, rubber\, palm oil\, tin\, and so on\, all of which were once imagined as vital too. Oilcraft is about the reasoning that makes notions of oil-as-power unquestionably true\, taken for granted\, and Vitalis’ own claim suspect\, jarring\, or risable. If you are unhappy with the witchcraft analogy\, then think instead in terms of “doctrinal verities\,” to borrow a phrase from the linguist Noam Chomsky\, who insists that it is the United States need to “control” Iraqi oil resources drove the war in 2003. \nIn his keynote for the Conference on Energy and the Left\, Vitalis proposes to recover the 1920s progressive era left’s critiques of today’s commonsense beliefs about scarcity and conflict. The roots of oilcraft are found in nineteenth century social Darwinism\, neo-mercantilism\, and geographical determinism\, which\, together with scientific racism\, are all impossible to disentangle from the imperialism of that era. The beliefs have a long half-life. Oilcraft’s debunkers today\, who are likely unaware of the earlier refutations of the imagined laws of resource imperialism\, are found primarily on the right\, not the left\, and promoted by the CATO Institute rather than the Open Society Foundation\, Institute for Policy Studies and the Nation Institute. Today’s Anglo-American left appears wholly under its spell. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRobert Vitalis has taught political science at the University of Pennsylvania since 1999. The London Guardian named his America’s Kingdom: Mythmaking on the Saudi Oil Frontier\, a book of the year in 2006. His last book\, White World Order\, Black Power Politics (Cornell University Press\, 2015) moved away from the Middle East to explore the unwritten history of racism and imperialism in American disciplinary international relations and the recovery of its critical “Howard School” tradition. He new book\, Oilcraft: Folkways of Imperialism and Antiimperialism in the Twenty First Century\, is forthcoming from Stanford University Press. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \nSponsored by the Hagop Kevorkian Center for Near Eastern Studies \nCo-sponsored by: \nGraduate School of Arts and Sciences \nMiddle East and Islamic Studies (MEIS) \nHistory Graduate Students Association

SUMMARY:Global Africa\, Migration\, Literature and the Arts
DESCRIPTION:The Symposium Global Africa\, Migration\, Literature\, and the Arts is intended to explore how Africans and people of African descent globally have been and continue to be at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange\, traversing geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries over the centuries. It will highlight the lived experiences of migration of\, and its impact on\, the people of Africa and its Diaspora through the prism of the arts – literature visual cultures and performances including film\, comics\, graphic arts\, painting\, photography\, music\, and dance. Departing from a critical examination of the discourses of migration\, location\, home and identity in the context of social and cultural transit\, the symposium will position Africans and the African Diaspora as participants and players in the movement of both tangible and intangible matter – multi-generic ideas\, texts\, stories\, memories\, artifacts and performances— as they move through time and space in the World. In the final analysis\, the symposium will highlight the multidimensional nature of the interchange between Africa and other regions of the world as experienced in the realm of the arts\, demonstrating once again the global/international reach and scope of the arts and art movements from Africa and the African Diaspora. \nSchool of Arts and Sciences\, School of Business\, School of Environmental and Biological Sciences\, Center for African Studies\, French department\, Italian department\, and the Zimmerli Art Museum \nConveners: Ousseina Alidou (AMESALL) and Renée Larrier (Dept. of French) \nEmail: globalafrica@sas.rutgers.edu

SUMMARY:CONFERENCE: BEYOND TURMOIL AND CONFLICT: IRAQ SINCE 2003
DESCRIPTION:Marking the sixteenth-anniversary of the the 2003 invasion of Iraq\, this event will reflect on the environmental\, political\, cultural\, and social consequences of the 2003 war\, as well as visions for Iraq’s future\, and will center discussions around the implications\, possibilities\, and new directions in the study of modern Iraq. Through the panels and keynote address\, this event will highlight the legacies of consecutive years of war\, violence\, and trauma. However\, this event intends to move past fatalistic narratives of trauma and violence by highlighting how Iraqis continue to narrate their own histories and represent their identities through artistic\, literary\, and cultural production\, protest against violence\, and continue to shape their own future. \nMoreover\, as Iraq continues to receive scholarly interest by historians\, political scientists\, artists\, and anthropologists alike\, and while recent controversies surrounding archives highlight the various ethical questions surrounding research on Iraq\, this event invites scholars and students to reflect on both the hardships and the possibilities in conducting research on/in Iraq. In particular\, and especially in the graduate workshop\, we would like to ask questions about what is at stake with projects on Iraq; what constitutes an archive and what are the ethical implications of using particular archives; what types of histories do Iraqis want told; and finally\, how do we address the recurrent problems and cliches within studies on Iraq. \n  \nSponsor Hagop Kevorkian Center Near Eastern Studies NYU \nCo-Sponsors: \nDepartment of Middle East and Islamic Studies\, Department of History NYU\, Department of Anthropology NYU

SUMMARY:FESTIVAL DES CINQ CONTINENTS
DESCRIPTION:This event will recur Every Day until Apr. 6\, 2019\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nThe festival takes place at a number of NYC locations. Events at La Maison Française of NYU are listed below. \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 5\, 2:15 P.M.\nParler avec le corps et la musique: qu’est-ce que c’est la voix humaine?\nRoland Auzet (compositeur et metteur en scène)\, Koffi Kwahulé (dramaturge)\, François Noudelmann (philosophe). Modératrice: Prof. Judith Miller (NYU). \nL’auteur franco-ivoirien Koffi Kwahulé et le compositeur/metteur en scène français Roland Auzet présenteront leur travail “musical\,” réalisé à travers deux spectacles récents: “Jaz de Kwahulé” (mise en scène par Alexandre Zeff) et “La Voix Humaine de Cocteau” (mise en scène par Roland Auzet). Quelle langue parle le corps de la comédienne dans chaque spectacle? Que fait la musique pour communiquer ce que le corps ou la voix ne peuvent pas? Le philosophe François Noudelmann ajoutera ses commentaires et ses questions à cette conversation. \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 5\, 4:00 P.M.\nLecture de textes\nJean-Marc Turine\nWriter\, radio producer; author of La Théo des fleuves (Prix des 5 Continents de la Francophonie 2018) \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 5\, 4:30 P.M.\nSilences et absences: écrivains\, chercheurs et artistes face à l’Histoire\nFabienne Kanor (écrivain et réalisatrice)\, Kid Kréol et Boogie (street artistes)\, Fatima Mazmouz (artiste)\, Frédéric Régent (historien\, Paris I et CNMHE). Modératrice: Prof. Cécile Bishop (NYU). \nCette table-ronde explore les stratégies mises en oeuvre par des écrivains\, chercheurs et artistes pour faire entendre des mémoires\, des voix ou des expériences passées sous silence par les récits historiques officiels. Du street art à la recherche historique\, en passant par le montage photographique et l’écriture littéraire\, nous suivrons une approche résolument interdisciplinaire pour aborder des questions telles que: comment parler au nom des oubliés? Le silence est-il une politique? L’enjeu de notre discussion sera de répondre à l’interrogation suivante: dans quelle mesure l’art et l’imagination peuvent-il offrir une alternative aux silences des archives? \nON VIEW APRIL 5 AND APRIL 8\, 10:00 A.M. – 6:00 P.M.\nPhoto exhibit of Bouzbir and Résistants by Fatima Mazmouz \nBouzbir and Résistants participate in cementing a “memory body” for the city of Casablanca. By reworking these historical documents and making us hear what they have kept silent\, Fatima Mazmouz situates them within a history of photography that is at once local\, global and contemporary. \n  \nCo-sponsored by the Permanent Mission of the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie to the United Nations and by the NYU Center for French Language and Cultures \nFull schedule at as.nyu.edu/frenchcenter/festival5continents/schedule0

SUMMARY:Round table discussion | FROM PLAZA MAYOR TO WASHINGTON SQUARE: SPANISH REPUBLICAN EXILES AT NYU
DESCRIPTION:Round table discussion | FROM PLAZA MAYOR TO WASHINGTON SQUARE: SPANISH REPUBLICAN EXILES AT NYU\n\n\nEighty year ago\, on April 1\, 1939\, the Spanish Civil War was officially declared over. One of its many tragic outcomes was the exile of as many as 500\,000 people. Some of those fleeing\, like the poet Antonio Machado\, would die during the exodus or shortly after. Others\, like the writer Jorge Semprún\, would be sent later on to Nazi concentration camps. Many others did their best to start new lives in France\, North Africa or the Americas\, almost always dreaming of someday returning to a free Spain. \nIn places like Chile\, Mexico\, Cuba or Argentina\, the contributions made by these Spanish Republican exiles to the eventual defeat of fascism\, and to the cultures and economies of their adopted countries\, are relatively well known. Fewer people are aware\, however\, of the remarkable legacy left by the Spanish Republican exiles in the United States. \nIn these two roundtable discussions\, we will talk about this legacy focusing on the impact that the exiles had on the intellectual life of New York University and\, more specifically\, on how they influenced the study of Spanish art\, culture and history at the University. \nOpening Remarks:\nGeorgina Dopico\, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Academic Affairs\nRafael Conde de Saro\, Consul General of Spain \nParticipants:\nMaría Dueñas (Visiting author)\nJames D. Fernández (NYU\, FAS)\nJuan José Herrera de la Muela (Consulate General of Spain in New York)\nAlexander Nagel (NYU\, IFA)\nEdward Sullivan (NYU\, IFA)\nMarisol Téllez Urech (Researcher and author) \nApril 2\, 2019 6:00 pm \nVenue: KJCC Auditorium // 53 Washington Square South\, NYC

The sum of these portraits build up to create a gallery of portraits\, intended to enrich the Sonothèque. \nThis program is part of the Le Festival des cinq continents\, an annual literary event\, organized in partnership with the international organization of La Francophonie. \nA Nomadic Experience\nCreated in 2018 by performer and musician Carine Henry\, in collaboration with actor and theatre director Jérôme Bouvet\, the goal of the sound library is to record songs and lullabies in as many languages as possible. They meet people in their home or in a public space and record contributions\, following up with an interview afterwards to better understand the link that ties the singer to the song. The Sonothèque Nomade recorded songs in France and in Switzerland\, and their 2-day residency at NYU Africa House will be their first residency within the Americas. The full extent of their work will be later presented at the Paléo Festival\, the biggest open-air music festival of Switzerland\, in July 2020. \nAt NYU\, the Sonothèque Nomade will record songs and lullabies from students and professors. \nThe NYU Center for French language and Cultures is a creative partner of the Sonothèque Nomade. \nWhen & Where\nNYU Africa House\, 44 Washington Mews\, New York\, NY 10003 \nApril 4\, 2019 1:00pm – 5:00pm \nApril 5\, 2019 9:00am – 12:00pm \nArt Direction\nJérôme Bouvet and Carine Henry \nFor more info about the Sonothèque Nomade project\, please visit https://www.lafaussecompagnie.fr \nFor more info about the Sonothèque Nomade’s residency at NYU\, please contact Guillaume Parodi at gp70@nyu.edu or (212) 998 8758. \nVisit the NYU Arts and Science page for more information: https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/research-centers/frenchcenter/festival5continents/schedule0/sononomade.html \n\nCo-Host\nThe NYU Center for French Language and Cultures exists to promote academic and cultural activity relating to the French-speaking world at New York University\, and to foster exchange between the University and French and Francophone communities.

SUMMARY:RACISMS IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE: “INNOCENCE LOST”
DESCRIPTION:CLACS is proud to present “Innocence Lost”\,  by Marie Cruz Soto (NYU Gallatin) as part of the Racisms in Comparative Perspective Working Group. \nAbstract: \n“Innocent Lost” is the fifth chapter of The Life of Isla Nena: Disposability\, Unruliness and the Colonial Order of Things in Vieques\, Puerto Rico.  The book manuscript broadly traces the makings of disposability and the efforts to unmake it.  It delves into how islanders have been branded disposable and into how that disposability has hinged on the value assigned by empires to the island over the past five centuries.  The colonial order of things in Vieques has made not only racialized others but disposable ones.  Chapter 5 discusses the entrance of the U.S. Navy into Vieques and the changes it forced upon the island-community.  The 1940s expropriations of three-fourths of the island to make way for the Navy destroyed agricultural activities and broke people’s attachments to land and barrios.  It precipitated a re-articulation of communal bonds and overall politics of belonging.  Furthermore\, the arrival of the Navy made the Viequense identity inseparable from the experience of displacement and dispossession.  To be a Viequense after the 1940s has been in many ways to be an expropiada.  But an unruly one. \nAbout Marie Cruz Soto: \nMarie Cruz Soto received her Ph.D. in History from the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, and teaches at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study\, New York University.  She is interested in processes of becoming that denote the workings of empires\, and in decolonizing struggles to un-become.  Her works focuses on Vieques\, Puerto Rico\, and explores how colonialism\, particularly in its militarized iteration\, has impacted the island-community.  She is currently working on a book tentatively titled The Life of Isla Nena: Disposability\, Unruliness and the Colonial Order of Things in Vieques\, Puerto Rico.  It traces how Viequenses have been branded disposable through a long history of violent imperial interventions.  She argues that the marking of disposability ensures a vulnerable and unruly population. \nCruz Soto is also a peace activist who has participated in Viequense community initiatives\, in the organization New York Solidarity with Vieques and in transnational networks of solidarity against U.S. military bases. \nAbout Racisms in Comparative Perspective Working Group: \nIn this new/old political context\, discussions about race and racisms have exploded. Postraciality and the multicultural rights frame are being challenged at the core and more intensely than ever before\, glimpses of proto-fascist policies and actions are on the rise.  As a working group which is part of the larger Red de Investigacion Accion Antiracista en las Americas (RAIAR)\, we want to continue contributing to the debate on how best to fight against this emergent racist/classist backlash. The analysis of race and racism in the Americas being done by our presenters since 2010 when Carmen Medeiros and Pamela Started the started the group. \nThis event is free and open to the public. ID is required to access the building. The conversation will be held in English. \n

SUMMARY:BOOK TALK: AFGHANISTAN RISING WITH FAIZ AHMED
DESCRIPTION:August 19\, 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of Afghanistan’s independence from Britain. Commemorating the roots and legacies of that watershed event\, Faiz Ahmed presents a vibrant account of the first Muslim-majority country to form a fully sovereign government\, ratify a constitution\, and promulgate an original body of national laws after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Debunking conventional narratives of Afghanistan as a perennial war zone and remote frontier\, his recently published book Afghanistan Rising rediscovers a time when Kabul stood proudly as a center of constitutional politics and contested visions of reform in the greater Islamicate world. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCosponsors: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFaiz Ahmed is Associate Professor of History at Brown University.

SUMMARY:Andrés Bello Chair Professor Marisa Belausteguigotia\, 2nd public lecture: PATHWAYS AND FOOTSTEPS IN DETENTION
DESCRIPTION:Venue: KJCC Auditorium // 53 Washington Sq. South\, NYC\nReception to Follow\n\nPATHWAYS AND FOOTSTEPS IN DETENTION: MIGRANTS’ AND PRISONERS’ TRANSLUCENCY – MEXICO/ U.S. BORDER\nHow do female prisoners escape their cells in order to be seen at the borders of nations\, institutions and disciplines? How do obscured migrants and prisoners leave traces within systems oriented to repress and disappear them? Professor Marisa Belausteguigoitia explores these questions through the trope of translucence\, that combination of light and shadow that shows the contours of an obscured object without rendering it fully clear. Through videos and images that tell the story of how prisoners in Mexico City escaped their cells and came together with migrants at the US border\, Prof. Belausteguigoitia illuminates their conjoined presence\, voices\, and forms of resistance against the conjoined violence in Mexico and the United States today.

SUMMARY:Tatiana Linkhoeva- Between the Hammer and the Anvil: Buriat-Mongols\, the Soviet Union and Imperial Japan
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Friday\, April 5th for “Between the Hammer and the Anvil: Buriat-Mongols\, the Soviet Union and Imperial Japan”\, a presentation by Tatiana Linkhoeva\, New York University. This event is part of the Colloquium Series\, sponsored by the NYU Jordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia. \nThe Soviet Union and Imperial Japan have been viewed as being ideologically on opposite sides: the former was communist and internationalist\, and the latter fascist\, anticommunist\, and pan-Asianist. But how different were the two regimes in controlling the frontiers of their respective imperial spaces on the Asian continent? The Soviet Union and Imperial Japan converged in the Mongolian territories (Buriatia\, Outer and Inner Mongolia)\, which were geopolitically highly important and served as buffer zones between Soviet Russia and Japanese-occupied Republican China (Manchukuo). As Soviet Russia came to control Buriatia and Outer Mongolia\, and Japan established its dominance in Inner Mongolia and Manchuria in the 1920s–30s\, both regimes promoted a set of modernizing policies which were surprisingly similar. Facing the same problem of how rapidly to modernize the “backward” Mongols\, Russia and Japan developed top-down\, state-centered\, nationalist policies with varying degree of success. \nDr. Tatiana Linkhoeva is Assistant Professor of Japanese History at New York University. Her forthcoming book\, Revolution Goes East. Imperial Japan and the Soviet Union will be published by Cornell University Press in 2019. The present talk will focus on her new research on colonial policies by the Soviet and Japanese regimes on the Mongolian territories (Buriatia\, Outer and Inner Mongolia). Native of the republic of Buriatia (Russia)\, Dr. Linkhoeva graduated from Moscow State University\, received her MA from the University of Tokyo\, and PhD in History from UC Berkeley. She has been awarded fellowships from Japan’s Ministry of Education\, the Japan Foundation\, UC Berkeley\, and the German Excellence Initiative. \n\n\n\n+ GOOGLE CALENDAR+ ICAL EXPORT\n\n\nDetails\n\nDate:\nApril 5\nTime:\n\n3:00 pm – 4:30 pm\n\nEvent Categories:\nColloquium Series\, NYU Events\, Occasional Series\, Spring 2019\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\nThe Jordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\nJordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia\n\n19 University Place\nNew York\, NY 10003 United States+ Google Map\n\nPhone:\n212-992-6575

SUMMARY:Faculty Brown Bag: Christine Dang
DESCRIPTION:Encountering the Other:  Religious Voices in the City \nOne key thread in the contemporary history of Africa – a thread running parallel to and entwining with those of decolonization\, independence\, and nation-building – is urbanization. Throughout the past century\, the continent has witnessed the mass migration of people from the countryside to the city\, and the rapid growth of cities\, both in size and in significance as paradigms of postcolonial society. This presentation is a reflection on spirituality and the urban\, as refracted through the lens of musical practice. I will focus\, in particular\, on Senegal – on the migration of religious believers into its cities during the 20th century\, and the sounds of faith which accompanied this migration. In Senegal – a secular\, Muslim-majority nation – musical piety reverberates across urban areas\, at all hours of the day and night. From the Islamic call to prayer\, to the chanting of Sufi poetry\, to the hymns of the Catholic minority population\, the cities of Senegal are flooded by diverse religious voices\, competing for acoustic and ideological control of public space. In these cities\, Muslim and Christian voices encounter the voices of others\, both sacred and secular; voices interact\, influence\, and are reciprocally influenced by the plurality of sonorities which constitute the urban environment. In their interaction and mutual influence\, religious voices not only transform the sonic landscape of the Senegalese city; they also participate in continual redefinitions of postcolonial identity\, secularism\, and public space.

SUMMARY:African Diaspora Forum-Maya Trotz (U. of South Florida) and Kevin Rhiney (Rutgers U.)
DESCRIPTION:Caribbean in the Flux of Change – People\, Land\, Air & Sea \n  \nBattered States and ‘Resilient’ Futures? A Critical Reflection on the Caribbean post Irma-Maria \nKevon Rhiney\, Rutgers University \n  \nRoughly one month after hurricanes Irma and Maria battered the Caribbean nation of Dominica\, Roosevelt Skerrit\, the Dominican Prime Minister asserted\, “we have a unique opportunity to be an example to the world\, an example of how an entire nation rebounds from disaster and how an entire nation can be climate resilient for the future.” Skerrit’s message relays a common theme emerging throughout the Caribbean after the devastating 2017 hurricane season\, that saw two of the most powerful hurricanes in recorded history wreaking havoc across the region. Though Irma and Maria serve as a stark reminder of how vulnerable the Caribbean is to extreme climate events\, there seem to be a growing emphasis on the opportunities presented by the post-hurricane situation. Ideas around resilience and ‘building back better’ are increasingly being used to justify recovery efforts aimed at rethinking existing development paradigms. At the same time\, events that have unfolded since Irma and Maria have revealed just how much these ‘natural’ disasters intertwine with underlying issues of non/sovereignty and uneven development. In this talk\, I demonstrate how the current post-hurricane situation has become a highly contested and politicized post/colonial terrain\, and offer some initial thoughts on how we might best understand these recent developments. This includes a foregrounding of the historical legacies driving modern-day vulnerabilities across the region\, and a rethinking of ‘resilience’ as a precondition for securing sustainable Caribbean futures under a changing climate. \n  \n  \nCaribbean People Centered Resilient Futures   \nMaya Trotz\, University of South Florida \n  \nResilience\, Build Back Better\, Climate Adaptation – commonly used terms in the Caribbean region today for new climate financing mechanisms like the Green Climate Fund (GCF). Having a job that puts food on the table gets packaged as investments in workforce development with a particular emphasis on gender\, improved irrigation for agriculture\, value add nutritional crops\, and improved livelihoods. Restoring a coral reef devastated by an earthquake and/or hurricane becomes a coastal resilience project to increase biodiversity\, flood protection\, science literacy on climate change\, the number of women licensed as tour guides\, and improve livelihoods. As the region plans to raise the funds and spend billions of dollars on infrastructure for the provision of food\, water\, electricity\, transportation etc.\, designing the projects for that investment provides opportunities for meaningful community engagement\, including inter island and diaspora relations. Using projects that I have worked on in the Caribbean\, this talk discusses opportunities and challenges to build more community focused solutions and management practices for critical resources. These projects range from 1) Water Sector Resilience for Sustainability in Barbados\, a GCF funded project to the Caribbean Community Climate Change Center for the Barbados Water Authority\, 2) Reefs of Hope\, a $100 million dollar 100&Change proposal\, and 3) a sustainability challenge for high school students in 12 Caribbean countries\, the Sagicor Visionaries Challenge.
