SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Radical Care: Stories of Women Leaders in Corrections
DESCRIPTION:With the “Hear\, Here” series\, we aim to facilitate conversations around new research in the humanities. Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.\n\nAbout this talk:\nWomen’s ascension into corrections leadership parallels the unprecedented expansion of the U.S. prison-industrial complex. Yet\, as women’s labor contributes to the growth of carceral systems\, leaders strive to be changemakers\, spearheading reforms and humanizing geographies. Weaving together composite narratives drawn from in-depth interviews\, this talk situates the work of women leaders as a practice of radical care\, exploring the potential and challenge of making meaningful change within harsh and unyielding institutions and systems.  \n\n*Francine Banner is a 2025-26 Norman Freehling Visiting Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities and Professor of Behavioral Sciences\, U-M Dearborn.*

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Segment-and-Rule: Modern Censorship in Authoritarian Regimes.
DESCRIPTION:We analyze the incentives of authoritarian regimes to segment access to censored content through technology. Citizens choose whether to pay to access censored online content at a cost fixed by the regime: the firewall. A low firewall segments access and generates more compliance than full censorship – a high firewall – ever could. Regime opponents self-select into consuming censored content\, and comply conditional on positive independent reporting. Regime supporters exclusively consume state propaganda\, which secures their compliance. This segment-and-rule strategy can be engineered by making local news outlets uninformative\, or by affecting the intrinsic benefit from access.
