SUMMARY:Sherene Seikaly: “Men of Capital: Scarcity and Economy in Mandate Palestine”
DESCRIPTION:Sherene Seikaly’s current work explores the construction and regulation of the poor in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Egypt in terms of governance and of popular politics. Through a political economy of the history of food\, this project rethinks our understanding of the “masses” and the specter of the “bread riot.” This talk is generously co-sponsored by the Center for Emerging Worlds. \nSeikaly is Assistant Professor of History at UC Santa Barbara. \n\n\nSpring 2016 Colloquium Series\n\n\nApril 6\, 2016\nApril 13\, 2016\nApril 20\, 2016\nApril 27\, 2016\nMay 4\,2016\nMay 11\,2016\nMay 18\,2016\nMay 25\,2016

SUMMARY:Book Talk: Sherene Seikaly
DESCRIPTION:Men of Capital examines British-ruled Palestine in the 1930s and 1940s through a focus on economy. In a departure from the expected histories of Palestine\, this book illuminates dynamic class constructions that aimed to shape a pan-Arab utopia in terms of free trade\, profit accumulation\, and private property. And in so doing\, it positions Palestine and Palestinians in the larger world of Arab thought and social life\, moving attention away from the limiting debates of Zionist-Palestinian conflict. \nProfessor Sheren Seikaly is a historian of capitalism\, consumption\, and development in the modern Middle East. She is Assistant Professor of History at UC Santa Barbara. She previously taught at the American University in Cairo. She is Co-founder and Co-editor of the important journal Jadaliyaa. \nUC Santa Cruz’s Center for Emerging Worlds and the Center for Cultural Studies present this new series\, “Book Talks\,” which invites authors to read from their books and engage in discussion. Please visit the Center for Emerging Worlds’ website for more information on their work.

SUMMARY:Living Writers: Githa Hariharan (CANCELED)
DESCRIPTION:  \nSpring 2016 Living Writers Series: Out of Line \nWhy Out of Line? \n“I chose the theme Out of Line because it characterizes the way many of these writers work across genre\, in different genres\, and generally seem to prize the element of surprise in their writing. I’m hoping it will encourage our students to think outside the box and have fun with their writing. In general\, I’m confident this will be a really fun series with a lot of writers with great senses of humor as well as deep interests in the political.” – Professor Micah Perks \nThis event is free and open to the public! Books from the authors will be on sale at the event by the Bay Tree Book Store. Get a book and get it signed by our marvelous visiting authors! \nThursdays\, 6:00-7:45 PM\nHumanities Lecture Hall\, 206 \nApril 7: Githa Hariharan (CANCELED)\nApril 14: Kate Schatz\nApril 21: Manuel Gonzales\nApril 28: Charlie Jane Anders\nMay 5: NO READING\nMay 12: Elizabeth McKenzie\nMay 19: Lev Grossman\nMay 26: Emily Hunt & Julien Poirier\nJune 2: Student Reading

SUMMARY:Friday Forum for Graduate Research: Andrew Woods
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Woods \n“Punk the Academy (aka. Punk as Method) \nWith a particular emphasis on the non-hierarchical\, ambiguous\, and D.I.Y. ethos of punk cultures\, this paper makes the case that punk can be used as a lens informing our investigations of other objects\, scenes\, themes\, and theories. The information of punk as method is not assuming punk “has all the answers\,” but rather that through subversive aesthetic shock and rupture\, punk has the potential to open up new ways of thinking through not only our discourses\, but also the social world from which they arise. \n\n  \nFriday Forum Spring 2016 Schedule \nFridays\, 12:30 – 2:00pm\nHumanities 1\, Room 202 \nA weekly interdisciplinary colloquium series for sharing graduate research across the humanities. Join us for light refreshments and weekly presentations by your fellow graduate students. \nApril 8th- Andrew Woods\, Politics\nApril 15th- Claudia Lopez\, Sociology\nApril 22nd- Jordan Reznick\, HAVC\nApril 29th- Erin McElroy- Feminist Studies\nMay 6th- Raul Tadle- Economics\nMay 13th- Cathy Thomas\, Literature\nMay 20th- Trung Nguyen\, History of Consciousness\nMay 27th- Rebecca Ora\, Film of Digital Media\nJune 3rd- Veronica Zablotsky\, Feminist Studies
