SUMMARY:Saru Jayaraman: "Behind the Kitchen Door in Santa Cruz and Across America"
DESCRIPTION:More Americans are choosing to dine healthy and ethically at restaurants offering organic and fair-trade ingredients. Yet few diners are aware of the working conditions at the restaurants themselves. How do restaurant workers live on some of the lowest wages in America? And how do poor working conditions—discriminatory labor practices\, exploitation\, and unsanitary kitchens—affect the meals that arrive at our restaurant tables? In her book\, Behind the Kitchen Door\, Saru Jayaraman tries to answer these questions by following a group of restaurant workers\, among the 10 million – many of whom are immigrants and people of color – who make up the nation’s second-largest private sector workforce. Whether you eat haute cuisine or fast food\, the well-being of restaurant workers is a pressing concern\, affecting our health and safety\, as well as our local economies. \nMs. Jayaraman’s talk will be followed with a Q&A session with the author along with Gretchen Regenhardt\, attorney and representative of the Watsonville-based group\, California Rural Legal Assistance\, which is launching a survey and research project on low-wage restaurant workers in Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties. \nSaru Jayaraman is a graduate of Yale Law School and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and director of the Food Labor Research Center at UC Berkeley.  She is also co-Founder of the Restaurant Opportunities Centers United (ROC United)\, a national organization with 10\,000 members across 26 cities\, which organizes restaurant workers to win workplace justice\, conducts research\, partners with responsible employers\, and launched cooperatively-owned restaurants. She has appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher\, MSNBC\, NBC Nightly News\, and PBS\, among others. \nCalifornia Rural Legal Assistance\, founded in 1966 as a nonprofit legal services program\, now has 21 offices\, providing more than 40\,000 low-income rural Californians with free legal assistance and a variety of community education and outreach programs. \nCo-Sponsored by the UCSC Center for Labor Studies\, the Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems\, the Sociology Department\, the Chicano Latino Resource Center\,  Oakes College\, and the Institute for Humanities Research. \nFor more information\, please contact smckay@ucsc.edu

SUMMARY:Helene Moglen: "From Frankenstein to Facebook: Reflections on the Dissolution of the Humanities"
DESCRIPTION:UC Santa Cruz Emeriti group presents an Emeriti Faculty Lecture cosponsored by the Center for Cultural Studies and the Department of Literature \nAre accounts of our love affairs with our machines stories of imprisonment or empowerment? Are we in charge of our avatars\, personal profiles and robots\, or have they actually mastered us? Drawing on Mary Shelley’s iconic science fiction novel\, Frankenstein\, Moglen explores the relation of humanism to technology and considers the various realities that pleasures of the virtual have concealed. \nHelene Moglen is a literary\, feminist\, and psychoanalytic critic. In addition to the books and articles she has published in the area of literary studies\, she has written about literacy\, pedagogy\, competition among academic women\, power\, and the erosion of the humanities. She is the author of The Trauma of Gender: A Feminist Theory of the English Novel (UC Press 2001) and the co-editor of Female Subjects in Black and White: Race\, Psychoanalysis\, Feminism (UC Press\, 1997). \nFREE parking is available in the Performing Arts lot. For questions or accommodation requirements\, contact UC Santa Cruz Special Events Office at 831.459.5003 or specialevents@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Gold (1934)
DESCRIPTION:The Golden Plague Forging Its Path of Annihilation! \nOne of the few expressly science fiction films produced under German National Socialism\, Gold makes a spectacle of British-German relations in the early years of the Third Reich. An “evil” British alchemist sabotages a “good” German chemist’s experimental attempt to obtain gold from base metals with the help of an atomic reactor\, and the chemist dies in the ensuing explosion. The deceased chemist’s “good” engineer assistant\, Werner Holk (Hans Alber)\, survives the disaster and starts to look for the parties responsible for the death of his mentor. Effectively kidnapped by the Brits during his search and coerced into aiding them\, Holk finds himself in a vast underwater facility where the atomic reactor designed by his dead friend is being reconstructed on a grand scale. While attempting to sabotage this new alchemical project before it destroys the world economy with mass-produced artificial gold\, Holk also has to figure out what to do about his feelings for the daughter of the British alchemist\, Florence (Brigitte Helm). Playing on many of the anxieties and fears connected with Germany’s experiences with hyperinflation in the 1920s\, Hartl’s film is a unique peek into Nazi cinema of the 1930s. Wittily “sampled” in Curt Siodmak’s American sci-fi classic\, The Magnetic Monster (1953)\, excerpts from which will be shown as well\, Gold is not to be missed! \n  \nPresented by It Came from the Thirties! For the remainder of the quarter\, we will be showing 1930s films from different countries each week. Same time\, same place. All are welcome. Tell your family\, invite your friends.

SUMMARY:Clare Monagle: "Neo-medievalism and the Postcolonial: International Relations Theory and Temporality"
DESCRIPTION:Though an historian of medieval thought\, Clare Monagle’s most recent work turns to the twentieth-century and the deployment of the Middle Ages in International Relations Theory. Monagle argues that charting the medieval in this frame enables a new insight into the understanding of historical time that informs the discipline of international relations. \nClare Monagle is a graduate of Monash and the Johns Hopkins Universities. She received her PhD in 2007. She is broadly interested in history of intellectuals in the Middle Ages\, as well as the histories of the institutions that housed them. Her work is also concerned with the “medievalism” of twentieth and twenty-first century thought\, that is\, the uses to which the concept of the medieval is put within definitions of modernity and progress.
