SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A Life's Work in Boxes: Poet Perspectives on Archival Collecting and Research
DESCRIPTION:Poet and scholar Rebecca Kosick\, once a student of The Alternative Press co-founder Ken Mikolowski in the U-M Residential College\, recently completed a book about The Alternative Press and will discuss her experience working with the archive from a research perspective. Then\, Detroit poet Mïïgun will join to moderate a conversation between Kosick and Mikolowski\, illuminating their varied perspectives on the work of The Alternative Press and its subsequent life as archival material. \n\nIn 1969 poet and artist couple Ken and Ann Mikolowski began a humble operation called The Alternative Press that would later pull household names like Allen Ginsburg into its orbit. For thirty years they collected poetry and art from their friends and wider circle\, and distributed these creations in manila envelopes through the mail. The archive of their life's-work-worth of material is now held at the University of Michigan Library's Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Drafted Nation: Economic and Political Legacies of Conscription (with Siddharth George and Kewei Zhang)
DESCRIPTION:This paper provides the first comprehensive evidence on the multifaceted legacy of military conscription across the world. We construct a new global database of conscription policy reforms linked to hundreds of census and survey data sources. Exploiting cohort-based eligibility cutoffs\, we compare individuals just eligible for service to those just exempt. On average\, conscription increases men's adult socioeconomic status\, driven by higher university attainment\, greater geographic mobility\, and the transferability of military-acquired skills. Effects are largest where the opportunity cost of service is low and reintegration into civilian life is strong. Economic gains extend to households: women who marry conscription-eligible men experience higher living standards\, and their children exhibit lower mortality\, despite no direct effects on women's own education or employment. Conscription also fosters interethnic marriage\, national-language use\, and patriotic attachment\, but simultaneously increases xenophobia and gender conservatism\, revealing a tradeoff between national integration and tolerance. Effects vary widely across countries depending on political institutions\, development\, diversity\, and conscription design. Economic and sociopolitical effects are positively correlated\, suggesting that nation-building is strongest where conscription delivers greater economic returns.
