The Birth and Death of Dictatorships DESCRIPTION:Recent scholarship has drawn attention to how the origins of authoritarian regimes shape their long-run trajectories. Bringing together a diverse set of experts on authoritarian regimes\, this roundtable highlights recent scholarship on the consequences of regime origins for the consolidation and collapse of dictatorships.\n \n Adam E. Casey's research broadly considers the relationship between dictators and their armed forces. He is currently working on two book manuscripts he will develop as a postdoctoral fellow. The first considers the relationship between foreign support and authoritarian rule. His second book project (with Dan Slater and Jean Lachapelle) considers the origins of military political power in the postcolonial world. In particular\, this project investigates why some militaries have come to dominate their polities\, while others have been tightly controlled by political leadership. Casey received his PhD in political science from the University of Toronto in 2020.\n \n Erica De Bruin's research focuses on civil-military relations\, civil-war\, and policing. She is the author of *How to Prevent Coups d’état: Counterbalancing and Regime Survival* (Cornell University Press\, 2020). At Hamilton\, Dr. De Bruin directs the Program on Justice and Security at the Arthur Levitt Public Affairs Center. She received a PhD from Yale University in 2014.\n \n Dan Slater specializes in the politics and history of enduring dictatorships and emerging democracies\, with a regional focus on Southeast Asia. His research interests include comparative politics\, international relations\, world politics\, and methodology. He is the author of *From Development to Democracy: The Transformations of Modern Asia* (Princeton University Press\, 2022)\, *Ordering Power: Contentious Politics and Authoritarian Leviathans in Southeast Asia* (Cambridge University Press\, 2010) and co-editor of *Southeast Asia in Political Science: Theory\, Region\, and Qualitative Analysis* (Stanford University Press\, 2008).\n \n Megan A. Stewart's research interests focus on explaining variation in how changes to social\, economic\, and political hierarchies—especially across racial\, gender\, class\, or religious/ethnic lines—are attempted and achieved\, and how war or political violence is often the context or consequence of such endeavors. She explores questions related to this topic using quantitative\, qualitative\, and experimental methods. Stewart is the author of *Governing for Revolution: Social Transformations in Civil War* (Cambridge University Press\, 2021)\, in which she explains why some rebel groups undertake complex and challenging wartime projects to transform social orders by altering hierarchies of power\, while most other rebel groups do not.\n \n Lucan A. Way's research focuses on global patterns of democracy and dictatorship. His forthcoming book (with Steven Levitsky)\, *Revolution and Dictatorship: The Violent Origins of Durable Authoritarianism* (Princeton University Press)\, provides a comparative historical explanation for the extraordinary durability of autocracies (China\, Cuba\, USSR) born of violent social revolution. Way’s solo-authored book\, *Pluralism by Default: Weak Autocrats and the Rise of Competitive Politics* (Johns Hopkins\, 2015)\, examines the sources of political competition in the former Soviet Union. Way argues that pluralism in the developing world often emerges out of authoritarian weakness: governments are too fragmented and states too weak to monopolize political control.\n\nThis lecture will be presented in person in 555 Weiser Hall and on Zoom.

We discovered a method to increase the expression of beneficial enzymes which augment the production of anti-inflammatory metabolites. This leads to lowered oxidative stress\, reduced myocardial injury and translates into better cardiac function following transplantation. Future strategies to reduce primary graft dysfunction could involve precise modulation of these cardiac metabolic pathways.\n\nBio:\nPaul Tang is an Assistant Professor of Cardiac Surgery at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor. His cardiothoracic surgery training was completed at Duke University Medical Center where he also received advanced training in heart transplantation\, ventricular assist devices and aortic surgery. He has given talks and published widely on the natural history and surgical outcomes of these diseases. At Yale University\, Dr. Tang completed a PhD focused on cardiovascular immunology. Dr. Tang's clinical practice includes surgical treatment of heart failure (i.e. heart transplantation\, ventricular assist devices)\, valvular repair or replacement\, and aortic aneurysm surgery. He is an investigator in various national clinical trials for heart failure management\, and is a member of professional societies such as The International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation\, Southern Thoracic Surgical Association\, American Heart Association\, and the Society of Thoracic Surgeons.​​​​​​​\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/91375430500 UID:98895-21797323@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/98895 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Biosciences,bme,Discussion,engineer,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Building - 1500 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220921T130143 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220922T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220922T173000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Michigan Meetups: Board Games DESCRIPTION:Come make some friends and join us for a session of board games!

Some academics have been arrested in high-profile raids on their homes and laboratories. Many who support multi-million dollar research teams on federal grants have had their grants terminated\, their laboratories closed\, and their personal savings bankrupted. And large majorities\, particularly at research universities\, are rethinking their hiring of postdocs\, their international collaborations\, their research strategies\, and even their lives in the United States. Yet few of their university colleagues understand the scope and scale of what is happening. My talk will explore how fears about China’s economic development strategy\, zero-sum assumptions about international conflict\, and the lack of a coordinated national R&D strategy have led to a cynical focus on Chinese American university scientists as the reason for China's rise and America's decline. I also explore how these suspicions have parallels in the treatment of German American academics in World War I\, using the University of Michigan’s treatment of German American academics as a cautionary tale. \n\nTo join this lecture virtually\, please see the Zoom link below.\n\nWhen: Sep 22\, 2022 04:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)\nTopic: Ann Lin Endowed Professorship Lecture\, Septembe 22\, 2022\n\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/93270502845\nOr One tap mobile : \n US: +16469313860\,\,93270502845# or +13017158592\,\,93270502845# \nOr Telephone:\n Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n US: +1 646 931 3860 or +1 301 715 8592 or +1 312 626 6799 or +1 646 876 9923 or +1 669 900 6833 or +1 253 215 8782 or +1 346 248 7799 or +1 669 444 9171 \n Canada: +1 778 907 2071 or +1 780 666 0144 or +1 204 272 7920 or +1 438 809 7799 or +1 587 328 1099 or +1 647 374 4685 or +1 647 558 0588 \nWebinar ID: 932 7050 2845\n International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/a2B0RLb8i\n\nOr an H.323/SIP room system:\n H.323: \n 162.255.37.11 (US West)\n 162.255.36.11 (US East)\n 115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n 115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n 213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n 103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n 103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n 149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n 64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n 149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n 207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n 149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\n Meeting ID: 932 7050 2845\n SIP: 93270502845@zoomcrc.com UID:95671-21790539@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/95671 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:chinese studies LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 10th Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
