SUMMARY:Presentation:Genocide ideology and denial in Rwanda: A continuous fight
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nDespite the unequivocal evidence that the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi occurred in Rwanda\, some still endeavour to expunge that atrocity from historical records. All genocide starts with a destructive ideology and followed afterwards by denial. This talk will re-examine the concepts of genocide ideology and denial\, how they are linked and how they contributed to the killings of Tutsi from 1959 up to 1994. Available literature as well as recent cases will be thoroughly analyzed\, both at local and international level\, to understand different forms and trends of genocide ideology and denial\, with specific emphasis on the Rwandan case.\n\nSponsored by the University of Michigan School of Information Data\, Archives\, and Information Seminar\; African Studies Center\; Museum Studies Program\; Ethics\, Society and Computing\; and Franklin Innovator Residency Fund.\n\nSpeaker bio:\nWith a PhD in education from the University of Geneva\, I have substantial experience working with the United Nations\, international non-governmental organizations\, non-profit organizations\, and governments on projects related to equitable and sustainable education curricula. As the Director General of the Research and Documentation Center on Genocide at the Rwanda National Commission for the Fight against Genocide (CNLG)\, I managed and led research projects as well as designed\, implemented\, monitored\, and assessed projects related to the Genocide against the Tutsi. Key projects included the digitization of forty-five million pages and four thousand audio-visual materials from Rwanda’s Gacaca Courts\, the preservation of textiles at the Nyamata genocide memorial site\, the preservation of bodies at the Murambi genocide memorial site\, and the preservation of artifacts in six other national genocide memorial sites in Rwanda. Between 2013 and 2015\, I also participated in a team responsible for designing Rwanda’s new national education curriculum for history and civic education. I am currently a Consultant with the International Labour Organization (ILO) for their Accelerator Lab 8.7 Program\, which provides funding and support to international organizations with innovative solutions to tackle child labor\, forced labor\, and human trafficking.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CFLP blue bag lunch talk with Professor Sanjukta Paul
DESCRIPTION:Visions of Labor Coordination and Fair Competition in Progressive Era Law & Reform\n\nWhen we think about the historical relationship between antitrust law and labor coordination\, we tend to assume that before there was an explicit “labor exemption\,” collective bargaining and other collective action among workers was viewed as anti-competitive. Yet that idea was developed much later than commonly assumed. Debates leading up to the Clayton Act of 1914 form an important episode leading up to that contested development. Professor Paul will discuss her draft chapter\, part of a larger book project\, that considers this episode in the context of surrounding developments in the law\, in economic thought\, and in  the organization of economic activity. A less-familiar view of competition and markets (from the modern perspective —one focused on distinguishing between fair and unfair competition—also had an important role in the debates leading to Progressive Era antitrust legislation. This view of markets acknowledges that competition is always channeled in particular qualitative directions—guided by\, among other things\, law—and is also always accompanied by particular\, legally-conditioned forms of economic coordination.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Outgroup Empathy and Opposition to Restrictive Voting Laws
DESCRIPTION:Nicholas Valentino\nThurs\, March 9\, 2023\, noon ET\nInstitute for Social Research\n\nAbstract: \nState-level policies that make it harder for citizens to legally cast ballots have proliferated over the past decade\, especially in the wake of Donald Trump’s election denials after his 2020 defeat. This study examines the role of outgroup empathy as a potential driver of support for restrictive voting laws and voter suppression efforts. Evidence from two national surveys indicates that outgroup empathy may boost support for race-based electoral justice\, above and beyond the influence of partisanship\, ideology\, and a host of socio-demographic influences. As predicted\, the effects of group empathy are conditional on political sophistication: Those most likely to be aware that these laws target minority group voters are also those who bring outgroup empathy to bear on their policy views. The findings suggest that group empathy—especially among the most politically sophisticated—can catalyze opposition to restrictive voting laws.
