A film director and her muse who was a student activist in the 1970s, a waitress who keeps changing jobs, an actor and an actress, all live loosely connected to each other by almost invisible threads. The narrative sheds its skin several times to reveal layer upon layer of the complexities that make up the characters’ lives.

Healthcare: A WeListen Staff Discussion (February 5, 2020 11:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/71610 71610-17844814@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, February 5, 2020 11:00am
Location: North Quad
Organized By: WeListen Staff

This WeListen session is open to all UM staff members. All voices and views are welcome and lunch will be provided!

RSVP here: http://bit.ly/WLFebruary

We will discuss Healthcare by learning about policies put forth by the Democratic and Republican parties, and examining systems in other countries. We'll also consider the impact of lobbyists on prescription drug costs, and discuss plans and terminology being used by 2020 presidential candidates.

Our aim is to bring liberals, conservatives, libertarians- everyone across the political spectrum- together for constructive conversation. The goal of WeListen discussions is not to debate or argue, but to understand the views and values of others and to learn from their perspectives. The session will begin with a brief content presentation to provide a basic understanding of the topic. No specific level of knowledge is required to participate in WeListen discussions.

By participating in WeListen sessions, staff members will:
- Expand understanding of a prominent political topic
- Practice discussing difficult topics with others,
- Gain openness to new ideas and perspectives,
- Learn to productively challenge an idea, and
- Form a sense of community among fellow staff members.

Questions? Email us at welistenstaff@umich.edu.

This event is supported by the WeListen Staff Series planning committee with members from the Ginsberg Center, the International Institute and LSA Psychology.

Although the overwhelming majority of Egyptian Jewry left the country in waves from 1948 to 1967, their presence continues to be noticeable in Egyptian culture. During the second half of the twentieth century, unfavorable portrayals of Jews appeared in a period of time marked by turmoil and conflict between Egypt and the nascent state of Israel. Representations of Jews in contemporary Egyptian literary works, however, mark a shift from portrayals influenced by the Arab-Israeli conflict which internalized negative Jewish stereotypes. Twenty-first century novelistic productions, however, invoked Jewish portrayals to shape Egypt as a multiethnic and multicultural society of which Jews were an integral part.

The political theorist Hannah Arendt once said that “A people that no longer can believe anything cannot make up its own mind. It is deprived not only of its capacity to act but also of its capacity to think and to judge. And with such a people you can then do what you please.” (Interview, New York Review of Books, October 26, 1978). Arendt’s well-known revisionist account of propaganda shifted the focus away from “indoctrination” and toward the role of cynicism and quiescence in sustaining authoritarianism. If uncertainty becomes a systemic feature of our media systems, we are likely to lose trust—in each other, in the institutions that inform and represent us, and, ultimately, in the democratic process. In the long term, the general expectation that little of what is available online can be trusted may contribute to an attitudinal spiral that “anything goes”—a new culture of indeterminacy that may further diminish individuals’ sense of accountability for the information they share. At the elite level, such a culture may also enable deceitful politicians to claim that nothing can be proved in a public sphere characterized by chaos, distrust, and cynicism. New opportunities will emerge for politicians to campaign on promises to restore “order” and “certainty” through illiberal policies curtailing free speech and other civil rights. How should communication researchers respond to these challenges?

Andrew Chadwick is Professor of Political Communication in the Department of Communication and Media at Loughborough University, where he is also the founding Director of the Online Civic Culture Centre (O3C). His latest book is The Hybrid Media System: Politics and Power (OUP, Second Edition). His next book is Social Media and the Future of Democracy (OUP) www.andrewchadwick.com

How might we think about and address the kinds of life that emerge in the wastescapes of cities? In this talk I attend to the social and natural life of Mumbai’s anthropogenic sea. Today, Mumbai’s sea is an uneasy gathering of urban, climactic and agrarian processes. As sewage, fish, birds, coral, and algae interact in dynamic relations, how are fishers, amateur naturalists and scientists negotiating the ambivalent ecologies of the Anthroposea. By attending to their practices, this talk explores emergent ways of thinking, knowing and acting in muddy waters.

Bio: Nikhil Anand is Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania. His research focuses on the political ecology of cities, read through the different lives of water. His award winning book, Hydraulic City, focuses on the everyday ways in which cities and citizens are made through the everyday management of water infrastructure in Mumbai. With Hannah Appel and Akhil Gupta, Dr. Anand is also co-editor of The Promise of Infrastructure, which focuses on how infrastructure provides a generative ground to theorize time and politics. Dr. Anand's new research project, The Urban Sea, attends to the ways coastal cities are actively constituted through social and natural relationships with the sea. Dr. Anand has a Masters in Environmental Science from Yale University and a PhD in Anthropology from Stanford University

STS Speaker. Catastrophic Thinking in Science and Culture: Geo-Eschatology and the Anthropocene (February 24, 2020 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/70128 70128-17538846@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, February 24, 2020 4:00pm
Location: North Quad
Organized By: Science, Technology & Society

The specter of extinction looms large in the late-modern Western psyche. As a cultural "imaginary," extinction is perhaps the distinctive post-WWII anxiety. Since the 1950s, visions of nuclear annihilation, mass famine, environmental collapse, biodiversity loss, and other self-inflicted catastrophes have haunted literature, art, film, popular media, and political discourse as central preoccupations. Indeed, one of the main imagined consequences of the ongoing climate crisis is the production of a "Sixth Extinction"--a collapse of biological diversity that may rival the great mass extinctions of the geological past and threaten the future of human civilization.

Not coincidentally, the second half of the 20th century also saw a dramatic revival among geologists and paleontologists of theories involving catastrophic mass extinctions as central agents in the history of life. This talk will explore the interpenetration of these scientific and cultural discourses during the 20th century. In particular, I will argue that our current cultural fascination with the so-called Anthropocene is a direct consequence of the fusion of the geological and the eschatological meanings of extinction: extinction thinking may in fact be the bridge between the deep past and imagined future of our species and our planet.

David Sepkoski is the Thomas M. Siebel Chair in History of Science and Professor in the Department of History at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He has published widely on histories of biology, the earth and environmental sciences, and data. His most recent book is Catastrophic Thinking: Extinction and the Value of Diversity from Darwin to the Anthropocene.

When Shakespeare Must Die, a Thai film adaptation of Macbeth is banned by the Thai government as a threat to national security, the film’s producer treks through the corridors of power to un-ban his Shakespearean horror movie–from the Cultural ministry to the Senate and the National Human Rights Commission, all the way to the Administrative Court where he is suing the government for abuse of power. Wherever he went, amidst political upheaval, his director followed with a camera. The resulting reality cinema is the living story of a struggle for justice and human dignity, for freedom of expression, which Thai filmmakers do not have. A dark cinematic record of democracy in action, in all its farcical, obscene and heartbreaking details.
