SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - The challenges\, opportunities\, and game changers of adapting to a changing climate
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - Adapting to climate change involves different issues -- and a different mindset -- than greenhouse gas reduction\, and its challenges are equally pressing. We’ll need to adapt in every community and nation\, in every sector of society\, and\, importantly\, in all habitats and ecosystems. There is a nearly boundless need for deep thinking and careful strategizing about how to adapt to a changing climate. We must be thoughtful about the climate challenges and risks we face\, the various adaptation tactics that are available\, and the hang-ups\, conflicts\, and tradeoffs among those challenges and tactics that might be hidden from view. This seminar will explore climate change adaptation for species and ecosystems\, with an emphasis on constraints\, innovation\, and ways to engage the public in adaptation discourse. The talk will also introduce the Midwest Climate Adaptation Science Center\, an organization providing science to guide adaptation practice in our region.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Identification and Estimation of Causal Effects in High-Frequency Event Studies
DESCRIPTION:We provide precise conditions for nonparametric identification of causal effects by high-frequency event study regressions\, which have been used widely in the recent macroeconomics\, financial eco- nomics and political economy literatures. The high-frequency event study method regresses changes in an outcome variable on a measure of unexpected changes in a policy variable in a narrow time window around an event or a policy announcement (e.g.\, a 30-minute window around an FOMC an- nouncement). We show that\, contrary to popular belief\, the narrow size of the window is not sufficient for identification. Rather\, the population regression coefficient identifies a causal estimand when (i) the effect of the policy shock on the outcome does not depend on the other variables (separability) and (ii) the surprise component of the news or event dominates all other variables that are present in the event window (relative exogeneity). Technically\, the latter condition requires the ratio between the variance of the policy shock and that of the other variables to be infinite in the event window. Under these conditions\, we establish the causal meaning of the event study estimand corresponding to the regression coefficient and the consistency and asymptotic normality of the event study estimator. Notably\, this standard linear regression estimator is robust to general forms of nonlinearity. We apply our results to Nakamura and Steinsson’s (2018a) analysis of the real economic effects of monetary pol- icy\, providing a simple empirical procedure to analyze the extent to which the standard event study estimator adequately estimates causal effects of interest.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Informational Roots of Support for Right-Wing Populists: Evidence from Argentina (with Daron Acemoglu\, Guillermo Cruces\, Martin Fiszbein\, Gaston Garcia Zavaleta and Carlos Molina)
DESCRIPTION:Support for populist and authoritarian regimes is rising worldwide\, despite evidence that they tend to underperform economically. To examine the role of (mis)perceptions of regime performance as drivers of political attitudes\, we conducted a survey experi- ment during Argentina’s 2023 presidential elections. At baseline\, optimistic beliefs about the performance of populist and non-democratic regimes were widespread\, and correlated with support for these regimes. When exposed to randomly assigned informational treat- ments challenging optimistic views about right-wing populism or autocracies\, individuals significantly adjusted their beliefs and their support for candidates associated with such regimes. We explore the impact of different information sources\, showing that scientific sources and newspapers are more influential than social media. Although individuals ap- pear to adjust their beliefs and attitudes in response to credible information\, we find that information countering people’s beliefs reduces their demand for additional information on regime performance\, consistent with an important role for motivated reasoning.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning from the Heterogeneity at the Electrode-Electrolyte Interface via Electrochemical Correlative Microscopy
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the structure-reactivity relationship at electrochemical interfaces is central to unraveling nearly all electrochemical processes\, including electrocatalysis and batteries. However\, these interfaces are typically structurally heterogeneous\, which impedes interpreting the structure-activity relationships using conventional ensemble electrochemical measurements. In this presentation\, I will discuss our efforts toward developing and applying electroanalytical techniques—such as scanning electrochemical probe microscopy and correlative microscopy—to gain new knowledge from electrochemical interfacial heterogeneity. First\, I will discuss our efforts towards simultaneous probing of local activity and product selectivity in electrocatalytic reactions via a hybrid scanning electrochemical probe microscopy approach\, equivalent to a miniature rotating ring disk electrode. Combined with correlative electron microscopy\, this approach enables simultaneous mapping of the facet-dependent activity and selectivity in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on polycrystalline Au and Pt. In the second example\, I will discuss the approach to measure site-specific nucleation kinetics and energetics in electrodeposition\, which plays an important role in the cyclability of batteries that use metal anodes. Finally\, the application of controlled electrodeposition towards accelerated materials discovery will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Premodern Colloquium | \"The Inquisition and the Image.\"
DESCRIPTION:We hope you will join us on Thursday\, April 10th at 4:00 PM EST when Adam Jasienski (Associate Professor of Art History\, Southern Methodist University) engages us in conversation about a draft chapter from a new book project\, tentatively titled \"The Inquisition and the Image.\"\n\nDr. Jasienski sets up his project as follows: \n\n\"The Inquisition and the Image is a study of the Spanish Inquisition’s archives through the lens of visual culture. The hundreds of thousands of preserved inquisitorial trials provide an unparalleled—and almost entirely unstudied—source for how people lived within the complex world of art objects that filled the early modern Hispanic world: how they made them\, what they did with them\, and what hopes and beliefs they placed upon them. \n\nBecause of how ambitious this project is (analyzing material from twenty-six inquisitorial tribunals on three continents across over three centuries)\, I chose to structure my book according to problems that arise time and again in the institution’s archives\, rather than trying to create a comprehensive catalogue of every case where images and artworks appear. I strive to read the inquisitorial trials against the grain to attempt to grant agency to individuals accused of sacrilege: why might they have acted the way they did\, if they actually knocked over a statue of a saint? What else might have been at play? What can we glean of their motivations and beliefs from the often very terse descriptions of the witnesses and notaries? How\, in sum\, can we return some dignity to the individuals who are often only marginally present in the discussions about their own purported actions?\"\n\n Host Brendan McMahon (U-M History of Art) will begin admitting participants to the meeting at 3:50. Discussion begins at 4:00 and concludes by 5:30.

DESCRIPTION:Lecture: April 10\, 4-6pm\nRLL Commons\, MLB 4314\n\nWorkshop: April 11\, 11am - 1pm\nRLL Commons\, MLB 4314\n\nReframing old debates about the relationship between comparative literature and the social sciences\, Professor Brock asks what literary studies and anthropology still have to learn from one another. What does contemporary anthropological theory have to say about the ethics of approaching a multicultural curriculum? Conversely\, how do fictional accounts of ethnographic and pseudo-ethnographic encounters foreground literary-studies methodology as an indispensable tool for navigating intercultural spaces?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Writing Workshop (Rummage: Museums\, Exhibitions\, and Representation RIW)
DESCRIPTION:Rummage is a Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop focused on the nexus of exhibition\, collection\, curation\, display\, and representation within museums and museum-adjacent spaces. The group’s name\, rummage\, evokes both a materiality and an intellectual practice characteristic of museum studies more broadly. On the one hand\, rummaging has a tactile quality. It gestures to the human role in how objects are placed and misplaced\, organized and disorganized\, thrown into juxtaposition\, and often randomly re-discovered anew by individuals negotiating various value systems associated with objects. It evokes an image of coming to objects of the past with new eyes and curiosity. On the other hand\, rummaging could also be used to describe an intellectual approach. In posing questions about the how and why certain narratives come to be exhibited and interpreted\, we root around historical understandings of heritage and the power dynamics that lead certain narratives to become dominant. This process is guided by curiosity\, a drive to understand\, and a skepticism of ordering systems.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ethel V. Curry Distinguished Lecture in Musicology: George Worlasi Kwasi Dor
DESCRIPTION:Join us as the Department of Musicology hosts Dr. George Worlasi Kwasi Dor for its annual Ethel V. Curry Distinguished Lecture. Dr. Dor presents a talk entitled \"Ambivalence of Creating Youthful Aesthetic Satisfaction and Cultural Referential Meaning in Today’s Borborbor Dance-Drumming of the Ghanaian Ewe Youth”\n\nABSTRACT\n\nBorborbor\, the most popular dance of the Ghanaian Ewe youth\, has undergone a phenomenal degree of innovative transformations that exemplify the ingenious creative agency and inventiveness of its practitioners. Invented in the mid 1950s by Kodzo Nuatro of Kpando in the Volta Region of Ghana\, Borborbor has witnessed substantial changes in the areas of instrumentation\, choreography and movement\, geo-cultural scope of its practice\, typology and multiple performance contexts and their attendant meanings\, and its economic potential. To explore the nature and processes of changes that have shaped the genre over its seven decades’ period of existence\, we organized a one-day symposium on Borborbor at the University of Ghana in June 2024. This Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program activity brought together invited practitioners from the socio-cultural and academic communities to dialogue. For our ethnographic strategy\, we used focus group interviews and discussion sessions involving the preceding cultural custodians and intellectuals to elicit specialized perspectives. The symposium culminated in an evening concert given by the Abeka Dekaworwor Fafali Borborbor Band and Kpoeta Ashanti Mile Norvisi group. We video recorded the focus group discussion and performances into ethnographic data\, and today’s presentation is an outgrowth of this on-going research. After explaining the genre’s compelling aesthetic appeal to Ghanaians beyond the Ewe and exploring what the symposium participants considered as referential meaning in Borborbor\, I discuss the emerging ambivalences in the areas of dancing\, views on appropriation\, and Borborbor in the church. I close the discussion with some summative thoughts and ramifications of the symposium for our research project on the generational changes and creative innovations in Borborbor.\n\nABOUT THE GUEST SPEAKER\n\nProf. GEORGE WORLASI KWASI DOR\, a Ghanaian Ewe\, is the McDonnell Barksdale Chair of Ethnomusicology\, Professor of Music\, and the founder and director of the African Drum and Dance Ensemble at the University of Mississippi (UM). Dr. Dor\, who has pioneered both the discipline of ethnomusicology and the MM in Ethnomusicology program at the UM\, earned his PhD in music (ethnomusicology)\, from the University of Pittsburgh\; MPhil in Music and BMus from the University of Ghana\; and a Diploma in Music Education from National Academy of Music\, Winneba\, Ghana. Dor’s publications include his widely read *West African Drumming and Dance in North American Universities: An Ethnomusicological Perspective* (2014)\, book chapters in Festschriften\, and articles in prestigious journals and encyclopedias. Dr. Dor is a two-time Carnegie African Diaspora Fellow and was a Visiting Professor of Music at the University of Port Harcourt\, Nigeria in 2019\, and at the University of Ghana in 2024. He initiated and continues to produce the UM’s annual Black History Month concerts since 2005. Other historic commemorative concerts he has produced include UM’s 50th and 60th Years of Integration – in 2012 and 2022\, and Ghana’s 50th Independence Anniversary in 2007. Dr. Dor’s strong leadership in diversity at the UM earned him a 2016 “Lift Every Voice” Award\, and the University of Mississippi’s 2021 Diversity Innovator Award. He is a consummate musician – scholar\, composer\, performer\, teacher\, and cultural patriot. While his compositions have been studied as themes of master’s and doctoral theses at both Ghanaian and German universities\, Dr. Dor’s symphonic works have been performed in Ghana\, USA\, and Germany. In an August 2022 citation\, the University of Ghana’s School of Performing Arts recognized Prof. Dor as “A National Musical Icon of Ghana and Distinguished Contributor to Ghanaian Art Music and African Musicology.\"
