SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | The Capitalist Unconscious: From Korean Unification to Transnational Korea
DESCRIPTION:The unification of North and South Korea is widely considered an unresolved and volatile matter for the global order\, but this book argues capital has already unified Korea in a transnational form. As Hyun Ok Park demonstrates\, rather than territorial integration and family union\, the capitalist unconscious drives the current unification\, imagining the capitalist integration of the Korean peninsula and the Korean diaspora as a new democratic moment. \n   Based on extensive archival and ethnographic research in South Korea and China\, The Capitalist Unconscious shows how the hegemonic democratic politics of the post-Cold War era—reparation\, peace\, and human rights—have consigned the rights of migrant laborers—protagonists of transnational Korea—to identity politics\, constitutionalism\, and cosmopolitanism. Park reveals the riveting capitalist logic of these politics\, which underpins legal and policy debates\, social activism\, and media spectacle.\n\nWhile rethinking the historical trajectory of Cold War industrialism and its subsequent liberal path\, this book also probes memories of such key events as the North Korean and Chinese revolutions\, which are integral to migrants’ reckoning with capitalist allures and communal possibilities. Casting capitalist democracy within an innovative framework of historical repetition\, Park elucidates the form and content of the capitalist unconscious at different historical moments and dissolves the modern opposition among socialism\, democracy\, and dictatorship. The Capitalist Unconscious astutely explores the neoliberal present’s past and introduces a compelling approach to the question of history and contemporaneity.\n\nHyun Ok Park teaches sociology at York University. She writes about global capitalism\, transnational migration\, empire\, postcolonialism\, and the issues of comparison and comparability. She is the author of Two Dreams in One Bed: Empire\, Social Life\, and the Origins of the North Korean Revolution in Manchuria (Duke University Press\, 2005).\n\nEvent cosponsored by the U-M Department of Sociology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Working Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:Francois Labourie introduced the theory of Anosov representations\nin his study of Hitchin representations and they have come to be regarded\nas the correct analogue of convex cocompact  representations into rank one\nLie groups in the setting of higher rank semi-simple Lie groups. I will introduce\na special class of Anosov representations\, called projective Anosov representations\,\nand explain how Benoist's work shows that holonomy maps of strictly convex \nprojective structures on closed manifolds are projective Anosov representations.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Mary Mattingly: Sacred Objects
DESCRIPTION:Special Event: Wednesday\, November 9 at 5:10 PM - Rackham Amphitheater\n\nMary Mattingly’s work collapses boundaries between performance\, sculpture\, architecture\, and documentation. Her practice addresses nomadic themes that are based on the need to migrate due to current and future environmental and political situations.\n\nMary is the founder of the Waterpod Project: a self-sufficient habitat and public space atop a barge built to explore future collaborative living situations. It docked throughout New York’s harbor\, with artists living onboard testing the ecosystem for the project’s duration. Her work has exhibited internationally and been featured in ArtForum\, The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, The Financial Times\, Le Monde Magazine\, ICON\, the Brooklyn Paper\, Aperture\, BBC News\, MSNBC\, Fox 5\, and WNBC.\n\nIn residence with the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Mattingly will complete an installation in the Institute Gallery and an outdoor burial project on the U-M Central Campus Diag\, chronicling the trappings of student life on campus.\n\nSupported by the University of Michigan Institute for Humanities and Chelsea River Gallery.

SUMMARY:Other:Author's Forum Presents \"DIY Detroit: Making Do in a City Without Services\" and \"Beautiful Wasteland: The Rise of Detroit as America’s Postindustrial Frontier\,\" A Conversation with Kimberly Kinder and Rebecca Kinney
DESCRIPTION:Kimberly Kinder and Rebecca Kinney read from their latest books\, followed by a conversation and Q & A.\n\nAbout \"DIY Detroit\": \"Stuck in a blighted city without basic services such as a bus line\, what Detroit’s residents are left with after decades of disinvestment and decline is DIY urbanism—sweeping their own streets\, maintaining public parks\, and boarding up empty buildings. DIY Detroit describes a phenomenon that has become woefully routine as inhabitants of deteriorating cities “domesticate” public services in order to get by.\"\n\nAbout \"Beautiful Wasteland\": \"\nRebecca J. Kinney reveals that the contemporary story of Detroit’s rebirth is an upcycled version of the American Dream\, which has long imagined access to work\, home\, and upward mobility as race-neutral projects. She tackles key questions about the future of postindustrial America\, and shows how the narratives of Detroit’s history are deeply steeped in material and ideological investments in whiteness.\"\n\n\nKimberley Kinder is assistant professor of urban planning at the University of Michigan. She is the author of The Politics of Urban Water: Changing Waterscapes in Amsterdam.\n\nRebecca J. Kinney\, who grew up in metropolitan Detroit\, is assistant professor in the School of Cultural and Critical Studies and Popular Culture at Bowling Green State University.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:\"Objects Unveiled: Boxing\, Rolling\, Stretching\, and Cutting\" Opening Reception with Artist Mary Mattingly
DESCRIPTION:All are welcome to join us after artist Mary Mattingly's Stamps Lecture (5:10pm at Rackham) to celebrate the opening of her latest installation\, at the Institute for the Humanities gallery through Dec. 15.\n\nStudying the production\, distribution\, and use of Cobalt was the starting point for this exhibition. From craft objects to Impressionist painting and the contemporary Alev Ebüzziya Siesbye\, Cobalt Blue has a significant art history. What does it mean though\, to work with materials that are both seductive and linked to contemporary forms of violence? If the exhibition is a form of storytelling – what do these objects say?\n\nBecause of their ubiquity\, the objects in the exhibition may veil their colonial histories\, but in their modern replications\, they implicate users in a massive extraction-based neocolonialism that can be deadly to the humans working in and living near mines. This is an extraction that also sacrifices the land\, water\, air\, and animal life for economic gain.\n\nThe exhibition includes photographs and objects\, many are transformed through boxing\, bundling\, rolling\, cutting\, stretching\, and crushing\; all techniques used to alter Cobalt.
