SUMMARY:The Fluidity of Status: A Seminar with Tanya Golash-Boza & Rhacel Parreñas (Non-citizenship Series)
DESCRIPTION:Focusing on gender\, deportation\, and labor\, the third and final session of Non-citizenship\, UC Santa Cruz’s Andrew W. Mellon Foundation John E. Sawyer Seminar on the Comparative Study of Culture\, approaches citizenship\, denizenship\, and mobility as fluid statuses—as formal (in other words\, documented) positions that are in flux and as practices of belonging that morph as people of various statuses interact with each other. \nPlease join us for this free\, public seminar with Tanya Golash-Boza\, Professor of Sociology at UC Merced\, and Rhacel Parreñas\, Professor of Sociology and Gender Studies at the University of Southern California.  To reserve your lunch and to access the pre-circulated readings\, please register here: \n \nFollowing the seminar\, Professors Golash-Boza and Parreñas will take part in The Fluidity of Status: Non-citizenship\, Deportation\, and Indentured Mobility\, a public conversation at the Museum of Art & History at 705 Front Street in downtown Santa Cruz.\n\n \nTanya Golash-Boza is the author of five books\, including Deported: Immigrant Policing\, Disposable Labor and Global Capitalism (New York University Press\, 2015)\, which explains mass deportation in the context of the global economic crisis; Due Process Denied (Routledge\, 2012)\, which describes how and why non-citizens in the United States have been detained and deported for minor crimes\, without regard for constitutional limits on disproportionate punishment; and Immigration Nation (Paradigm\, 2012)\, which provides a critical analysis of the impact that US immigration policy has on human rights.  In addition\, she has published over a dozen articles in peer-reviewed journals on deportations\, racial identity\, and human rights and has written on contemporary issues for Al Jazeera\, The Boston Review\, The Nation\, Counterpunch\, The Houston Chronicle\, Racialicious\, The Chronicle of Higher Education\, and Dissident Voice. \nRhacel Parreñas‘ book\, Illicit Flirtations: Labor\, Migration and Sex Trafficking in Tokyo (Stanford University Press\, 2011)\, won the Distinguished Book Award in the Labor and Labor Movements Section of the American Sociological Association. Probing the intersections of human trafficking and labor migration\, her current research analyzes the constitution of unfree labor among migrant domestic workers in Dubai and Singapore. Her other books include Human Trafficking Reconsidered: Migration and Forced Labor (Open Society Institute\, 2014)\, The Force of Domesticity: Filipina Migrants and Globalization (New York University Press\, 2008)\, and Servants of Globalization: Migration and Domestic Work (second edition\, Stanford University Press\, 2015). Her current research focuses on the unfree labor of migrant contract workers in Asia and the Middle East.\nThis seminar is co-sponsored by the Chicano Latino Research Center and Institute for Humanities Research\, with generous support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Common Front for the Right to Housing in Bucharest
DESCRIPTION:Comparative urban studies are on the rise\, raising new questions about translation\, fungibility\, and transit. How can we study the material effects of global capital in various urban spaces without conflating the spatial struggles and transformations of one space upon another? How can superimposing Western understandings of gentrification upon non-Western places impose onto-epistemological violence? This talk\, moderated by Feminist Studies doctoral candidate and Anti-Eviction Mapping Project cofounder Erin McElroy\, will feature Bucharest-based housing justice activist\, artist\, and scholar Veda Popovici. Veda will share more about the Bucharest’s direct action collective\, the Common Front for the Right to Housing\, as well as histories of postsocialist neoliberal housing restitution laws that have incited current Romanian spatial struggles. Erin and Veda will discuss a growing call to think both global capital formations and comparative urbanism in Romania through decolonial analytics.

SUMMARY:The Fluidity of Status: Non-citizenship\, Deportation\, and Indentured Mobility: A Conversation with Tanya Golash-Boza and Rhacel Parreñas
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos: by Steve Kurtz\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nPresented by the Chicano Latino Research Center and Institute for Humanities Research\nIn two Ted-style talks\, Tanya Golash-Boza (UC Merced) and Rhacel Parreñas (University of Southern California) help close UC Santa Cruz’s Andrew W. Mellon John E. Sawyer Seminar on non-citizenship by discussing what they see as some of the key issues framing debates around migration in our time: gender\, deportation\, incarceration\, slavery\, human trafficking\, structural violence\, and global apartheid. The evening begins with a reception at 6:30pm\, followed by presentations at 7:00pm and a Q&A moderated by Felicity Amaya Schaeffer (UC Santa Cruz). \n“Deported without Due Process: Ryan’s Story”\nTanya Golash-Boza\, Professor of Sociology\, University of California\, Merced \nSince 1996\, five million people have been deported from the United States – 98% of them Latin American and 90% men. Laws passed in 1996 made it easier to deport legal permanent residents\, even those eligible for citizenship. In immigration proceedings\, you have no right to legal representation. You can be detained without bond. You can be deported without a full hearing. In this talk\, Tanya Golash-Boza will explain how legal permanent residents can be deported from the United States with minimal or no due process. \n“The Unfree Labor of Migrant Domestic Workers”\nRhacel Parreñas\, Professor of Sociology and Gender Studies\, University of Southern California \nAcross the globe\, migrant domestic workers are unfree workers whose legal residency is contingent on their continued employment as live-in workers with a designated sponsor. Rhacel Parreñas’ talk gives a global overview of the exclusionary terms of their belonging. It then interrogates dominant theoretical frameworks for thinking about contemporary unfreedoms – slavery\, human trafficking and structural violence – and proposes the alternative concept of “indentured mobility\,” which sees migration as simultaneously constituting of financial mobility from a life of poverty in the sending society but at the cost of servitude vis-à-vis a sponsoring employer in the receiving society. The concept of indentured mobility foregrounds not only the severe structural constraints that limit the options of domestic workers but also their agentic negotiations for improving their work conditions and maximizing thepossible gains in their state of unfreedom. \nThis event is free and open to the public\, but attendees are kindly asked to register in advance. \n \nSpeakers \nTanya Golash-Boza is the author of five books\, including Deported: Immigrant Policing\, Disposable Labor and Global Capitalism (New York University Press\, 2015)\, which explains mass deportation in the context of the global economic crisis; Due Process Denied (Routledge\, 2012)\, which describes how and why non-citizens in the United States have been detained and deported for minor crimes\, without regard for constitutional limits on disproportionate punishment; and Immigration Nation (Paradigm\, 2012)\, which provides a critical analysis of the impact that US immigration policy has on human rights.  In addition\, she has published over a dozen articles in peer-reviewed journals on deportations\, racial identity\, and human rights and has written on contemporary issues for Al Jazeera\, The Boston Review\, The Nation\, Counterpunch\, The Houston Chronicle\, Racialicious\, The Chronicle of Higher Education\, and Dissident Voice. \nRhacel Parreñas‘ book\, Illicit Flirtations: Labor\, Migration and Sex Trafficking in Tokyo(Stanford University Press\, 2011)\, won the Distinguished Book Award in the Labor and Labor Movements Section of the American Sociological Association. Probing the intersections of human trafficking and labor migration\, her current research analyzes the constitution of unfree labor among migrant domestic workers in Dubai and Singapore. Her other books include Human Trafficking Reconsidered: Migration and Forced Labor (Open Society Institute\, 2014)\, The Force of Domesticity: Filipina Migrants and Globalization (New York University Press\, 2008)\, and Servants of Globalization: Migration and Domestic Work (second edition\, Stanford University Press\, 2015). Her current research focuses on the unfree labor of migrant contract workers in Asia and the Middle East. \nFelicity Amaya Schaeffer is Associate Professor of Feminist Studies and Co-principal Investigator of Non-citizenship\, UC Santa Cruz’s Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Sawyer Seminar.  She is the author of Love and Empire:  Cybermarriage and Citizenship across the Americas (New York University Press\, 2013)\, an exploration of the relationship between global shifts and intimate circuits of desire\, love\, and marriage.  Her current research is on surveillance technologies and the sexual criminalization of migrant bodies on and beyond the US-Mexico border.  Other research interests include borderlands and transnationalisms; affect and capitalism; race\, technology\, and subjectivity; and Chicana and Latin American cultural studies. \n  \nThis free\, public event is co-sponsored by the Chicano Latino Research Center and Institute for Humanities Research\, with generous support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. \nAbout Non-citizenship\nNon-citizenship is part of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation John E. Sawyer Seminar on the Comparative Study of Culture. Linking citizenship\, migration\, border\, labor\, and carceral studies\, and juxtaposing spatial and social mobility and immobility\, this year-long series of events explores what it means to be a citizen and non-citizen in a world made by migrants\, refugees\, guest workers\, permanent residents\, asylum seekers\, slaves\, prisoners\, detainees\, the stateless\, and denizens (residents who do not hold the same rights as citizens). Non-citizenship is organized around three themes: “Forced Migration” (fall 2016)\, “Labor Mobility and Precarity” (winter 2017)\, and “Fluidity of Status” (spring 2017). Click here to learn more.

SUMMARY:Spanish Colloquium: Ximena Briceño\, "A vuelo de pájaro: Vallejo y Arguedas"
DESCRIPTION:A vuelo de pájaro: Vallejo y ArguedasA talk in Spanish by Ximena Briceño\nXimena Briceño enseña literatura latinoamericana en el Departamento de Culturas Ibéricas y Latinoamericanas de Stanford University desde 2008. Es doctora por la Universidad de Cornell y egresada de la Universidad Católica del Perú. Su trabajo de investigación se enfoca en teorías de animalidad en la literatura moderna de América Latina\, especialmente de la zona andina. Ha sido becaria del Instituto Iberoamericano de Berlín y es coordinadora del grupo de investigación materia en Stanford. \nExploro el arco trazado por el ave guanera desde Trilce de César Vallejo hasta El zorro de arriba y el zorro de abajo de José María Arguedas. Quiero discutir la presencia de una poética excrementicia en la vanguardia andina desde una perspectiva post-antropocéntrica. Tomando como punto de partida la idea clásica de la vanguardia latinoamericana como crítica a la modernidad\, esta ponencia extrema esta postura para mostrar que\, más bien\, la línea excrementicia que comunica la escritura de Vallejo y Arguedas marca cómo esa temporalidad colapsa en un tiempo catastrófico que borra la frontera de lo humano y lo no humano. \n

SUMMARY:The "Light” Revolution and its aftermaths: Protest\, resistance and performing Eastern Europe
DESCRIPTION:SubRosa\nThroughout all of February\, tens of thousands took the streets in Romania to protest corruption of the political class. Far from being the first spontaneous mass protests in recent local history\, they were the first of such magnitude to affirm a clear right-wing position. As international radicals\, we expect solidarity not with the imperialist narrative of the “at last enlightened East” but with local resistance to the liberal paradigm of civic\, peaceful protest.

SUMMARY:PhD+: Humanities Townhall to Discuss Graduate Education for Graduate Students and Faculty
DESCRIPTION:Last year\, the NEH awarded UCSC a Next Generation Humanities PhD Planning Grant to help support the campus in instituting wide-ranging changes in its humanities doctoral programs. As such a process process will ultimately affect everyone in the Humanities division\, the grant participants would like to invite Humanities affiliates to a town-hall style forum for a short presentation about our NEH grant\, as well as to provide an opportunity in which to share ideas\, thoughts\, and concerns about the state\, and future of\, humanities graduate education at UCSC–and in general. We hope to integrate the feedback we receive into the strategies that each of our working groups are in the process of developing in order to better serve the UCSC humanities community. After a short introduction about the grant\, an informal panel discussion will provide some groundwork for a larger\, audience-based conservation regarding topics such as community building within/among graduate students and faculty\, skills development opportunities for humanities students\, and understanding/defining expectations for mentor/mentee relationships.  As part of our town hall discussion\, we provide a modest and optional selection of articles from the Chronicle of Higher Education as background reading for those who would like to participate. \nPlease RSVP below. Lunch will be served. \nPhD+ Workshop Series\nPlease join us for the second year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by the Institute for Humanities Research. We will meet monthly\, over lunch\, to discuss: possible career paths for PhDs\, internship possibilities\, grants/fellowships\, work/life balance\, elements of style\, online identity issues\, and much\, much more. \nPlease RSVP below.\nLoading…

SUMMARY:Friday Forum for Graduate Research: Jaclyn N. Schultz
DESCRIPTION:Advertising Female Futurity: Children’s Books Printed as Advertisements in the U.S.\, 1850-1870 \nIn this presentation\, I examine children’s books printed as advertisemtns between 1850 and 1870 that were directed at female children. Beginning around 1850\, companies produced books that served as advertisements but took the shape of children’s primers\, rhymes\, or storybooks. This presentation carefully studies these books to uncover consumerist lessons directed at children as well as contemporaneous understandings of the women of the future. By examining how female child readers were trained to become a certain kind of women through these advertising books\, my presentation illuminates the distinctive understanding of gendered labor\, consumerism\, and futurity that existed in the U.S. between 1850 and 1870. \nFriday Forum Spring quarter 2017 Schedule: \nFridays 12:20-2pm\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 21\, 2017: Jaclyn N.
