SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:CMENAS Fall Colloquium. Higher Ed between Authoritarianism and Neoliberalism
DESCRIPTION:2022 CMENAS Fall Colloquium: Higher Education & Reformation across the MENA: A Geopolitical Exploration\n\n“Between Authoritarianism and Neoliberalism”\n\nMuez Ali & Laura Mann\, University College London (UK) & London School of Economics and Political Science (UK): *The Long-term Consequences of the Commercialization and Politicization of Higher Education on Employment and Politics in Sudan*\n\nIn the 1990s\, Sudan underwent a massive expansion and commercialization of its higher education system\, moving from having three to 27 universities over a ten-year period. Within each university\, student numbers also rose\, and shorter two-year diplomas were also introduced in an effort to raise revenue. Access to higher education expanded dramatically\, but administrators and academics struggled to maintain educational quality and to protect the value of their qualifications in the labour market. Sudan’s experience reflects broader trends within the Middle East and Africa\, in part driven by the World Bank’s ‘rate of return’ calculations\, which de-prioritized public spending on higher education. But the policy also emerged from Sudan’s own political economy\, with a new regime seeking to weaken sectarian control over elite reproduction through universities and state employment. This talk explores some of the long-term consequences of these changes for economic development and politics in Sudan\, and situates the country’s experience within broader regional trends.\n   \nSaeid Golkar\, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (USA): *Higher Education in Authoritarian Context: Iran as a case study*\n\nThis is a study of state and Universities relationship in modern Iran. Despite the constant suppression of students by Pahlavi monarchy\, students were actively engaged in anti-regime activities and\, in collaboration with other social groups\, finally brought the regime down in 1979. However\, the Islamic Republic has seen fewer regime-threatening protests from university students. Why did the Pahlavi monarchy fail while the Islamic Republic succeeded in controlling the universities? What are the differences between the Pahlavi monarchy and the Islamic Republic's higher education policies?\n   \nSpeaker Bios:\nMuez Ali is a Doctoral Researcher at the UCL Energy Institute and Research Associate at LSE CPAID. His research interests and work span several cross-cutting fields\, including public service provision\, climate change\, social policy and knowledge production in Sub-Saharan Africa in general and Sudan in particular.\n   \nLaura Mann is an assistant professor in the International Development Department at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and an affiliate of the Firoz Lalji Institute for Africa\, also at the LSE. Her research explores the role of knowledge and technology in processes of economic development and international divergence\, with a particular focus on higher education policy and digitization. Her doctoral work focused on the expansion of higher education in Sudan but since then has worked on digitization and development in Sudan\, Kenya and Rwanda.\n\nSaeid Golkar is a UC Foundation Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He is also a non-resident senior fellow on Middle East Policy at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs (CCGA) and The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change in the UK. He received his PhD in political science in 2008. Since then\, he's held a postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford University and researched and taught at Northwestern Universit and served as a fellow at the National Endowment for Democracy and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. His research focuses on the international and comparative politics of authoritarian regimes\, emphasizing the Middle East and North Africa. His book\, *Captive Society: The Basij Mobilization and Social Control in Post-Revolutionary Iran* Columbia University Press\, 2015\, was awarded the Washington Institute silver medal.\n\nRegister to the virtual event: https://myumi.ch/P14M9\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact waterbuk@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Psychology Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:Simmons: Examining the effect of exceptions in generic language\n\nGeneric statements (e.g.\, “Sharks attack humans”) provide generalizations about kinds and may be accepted even in the face of exceptions (e.g.\, most sharks don’t attack humans). These statements are also common in child-directed speech. Although past research has focused on the positive evidence that justifies a generic\, little work has explored the role of counterevidence—that is\, category members that are exceptions. Our recent work aims to understand (1) how different types of counterexamples may differentially influence whether generic statements are accepted\, and (2) whether listeners have expectations about counterexamples\, when presented with generic statements. In this talk I will present novel findings that adults and children were significantly less likely to endorse generic statements when counterexamples displayed an alternative property than when they displayed an absence of the property. These findings suggest that\, for children as well as adults\, harmful generalizations expressed with generics may be best counteracted by counterexamples that display an alternative property instead of the mere absence of the target property. \n\nYu: Where Do Differences in Theory of Mind Development Come from? An Agent-Based Model of Social Interaction and Theory-of-Mind\n\nTheory of Mind (ToM)\, the ability to understand others’ internal states\, emerges early in life and develops in childhood. Although all humans develop ToM\, they do so at different paces: some develop faster and some slower. Where do these differences come from? Social interaction is surely one potent cause. In this presentation\, I will use a computational agent-based model (ABM) to demonstrate how social interaction can causally influence ToM development. I will show that the amount of social interaction strongly influences the pace of a group of children to fully develop their individual ToMs and illustrate how the result holds across different group sizes and regardless of whether a child begins with an existing social network or not. Finally\, I will discuss the new insights offered by a computational modeling perspective – it not only helps inform us how the differences in ToM development emerge but also helps specify an underlying mechanism for such developments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:PSC Brownbag Series: Economic Transformation and Population Aging in China: What Comes Next?
DESCRIPTION:Over the last four decades\, China’s young and growing population has turned from a curse to fortune for its historical economic boom.  As China’s economic boom enters a new era with a low growth rate and persistent inequality\, a demographic concern of different kind has superseded the old one. This new concern centers on the implications of accelerating population aging and pending population decline. Using an economic life cycle perspective and applying the methodology of National Transfer Accounts (NTA)\, this talk reviews changes in age profiles of income and consumption over time\, examines changes in life cycle surplus and its distribution\, and discusses the combined effects of economic change and population aging on intergenerational transfers and the fiscal challenges faced by the Chinese state in the decades to come.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag: Human Ecology and the Brain: Languages and Cultures as Contexts for Development
DESCRIPTION:Human ecology is the study of relations between humans and their natural\, cultural\, built\, and technological environments. Psychology is a discipline essential to the concept of human ecology\, yet the scientific discipline of psychology has disconnected itself from the broader study of human ecology. Recent attempts to decolonize psychology and bring more representativeness into the field brings opportunities for reconsidering this relationship. This talk will consider how approaches to language and cognitive development can be informed by an understanding of human ecology. I will present data on monolingual and bilingual Chinese-\,  English-\, and Spanish-speaking children’s language and literacy development\, but also on the worldviews that come with language and discuss not just how children acquire languages\, but also how languages acquire children (and adults) as we navigate complex social relationships. Throughout\, I will discuss my own and others' experiences with learning language and cultural systems vastly different from our own\, and suggest broader emphases on the relations of language to cultural dynamics and to decolonizing and humanizing our discipline.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special HEP-Astro Seminar | Is Cosmic Dynamics Self-Regulating?
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we discuss a cosmological model for a universe with self-regulating features. We set up the theoretical framework for the model and determine the time evolution of the scale-factor a(t). It is shown that such a universe repeatedly goes through alternate periods of (dark) matter and dark energy domination. The resulting dynamics oscillates about its-would-be ideal time-linear or coasting path\, with monotonic expansion. When compared to dynamics of the observed Universe\, the model recovers the observationally-established evolutionary features of the latter\, from the big bang to the current acceleration\, and farther. It suggests a universe that emerges from a non-singular state\, associated with a non-exponential acceleration and which it exits naturally with matter-energy production. The model has neither a horizon nor a áatness problem. It reproduces the standard parameters of the observed universe\, including the cosmic age t_0 and the current Hubble (constant) parameter H_0. The model makes some falsiable predictions (consistent with recent observations) and explains some standing issues such as the dimensionless age (H_0 t_0 \simeq 1) paradox. The Öndings suggest cosmic dynamics may be self-regulating and predictable. (Time allowing) we show that the universe in this scenario behaves as a time crystal.\n
