SUMMARY:Ben Breen\, When Drugs Became Global: Technologies of Intoxication in the Enlightenment
DESCRIPTION:Over the course of the seventeenth eighteenth centuries\, psychoactive substances from opiates to cannabis to coffee underwent rapid globalization. Enlightenment thinkers were by no means immune to the allure of these novel drugs. Scientists and physicians tried to discover the “occult virtues” of these drugs through an array of experimental methods\, including testing them on themselves. This talk explores how the globalization of drugs in the eighteenth century influenced Enlightenment-era science\, commerce\, and technology. It does so through three case studies: Jesuits observing ayahuasca ceremonies in South America\, East India Company merchants sampling cannabis in South Asia\, and the strange story of the invention of nitrous oxide.\n \nEvent Photos: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n\nAn alumni Council Silicon Valley Lecture \n

SUMMARY:Sharad Chari: “Apartheid Remains”
DESCRIPTION:“Apartheid Remains” explores how people subjected to life in a patchwork landscape of industry and residence in the Indian Ocean City of Durban\, South Africa\, have sought to contest their social and spatial subjection across the 20th century\, particularly in the revolutionary 1970s and 1980s\, and in today’s racial capitalism. \nEvent Photos: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nSharad Chari is a geographer working at the interface of political economy\, historical ethnography\, Marxist geography\, agrarian studies\, Black and subaltern radical traditions and oceanic studies. He has spent time at the Michigan Society of Fellows and the ‘Anthrohistory’ program at Michigan\, Geography at the LSE\, and Anthropology at the University of the Witwatersrand\, before returning to Berkeley Geography. Sharad is a scholar of agrarian transition and industrialization in South India (his first book\, Fraternal Capital\, 2004) and has been working on South Africa since 2002 (on the book project Apartheid Remains which he is speaking from.) He has also begun new work on an oceanic conception of capitalism\, in relation to the fetishism of ‘the Ocean Economy’ in the Southern African Indian Ocean region\, focusing on the South African and Mozambican Indian Ocean littorals\, Réunion and Mauritius. At Berkeley\, he is also part of Berkeley Black Geographies and the Submergent Archive\, both collective projects in Geography Department\, and at WiSER he is part of the project on the Oceanic Humanities in the Global South.  \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. The sessions consist of a 40-45 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center provides coffee\, tea\, and cookies. \nAll Center for Cultural Studies events are free and open to the public. Staff assistance is provided by the Humanities Institute.

SUMMARY:David Lee: "Pictures of the Past -  Introduction to the Rock Art of Western North America"
DESCRIPTION:Ancient hunter-gatherer peoples across the globe painted and carved designs on rock walls for tens of thousands of years. The deserts of western North America contain some of the largest and most complex rock art sites known\, and careful documentation of them has helped us to understand how these enigmatic images fit into the lives of the peoples who made them and their descendants. This lecture will explore many of the various rock art styles of this region and place them within the greater context of national and international rock art studies. \nFree and open to the public \nMetered parking available in lower Cowell-Stevenson lot (109) \n  \nDavid Lee is an independent rock art researcher\, focusing on the function and context of Native American rock art in the Great Basin and the Mojave Desert. Beginning in 1996 he has documented rock art in California\, Nevada\, Utah\, Arizona\, Idaho\, and Australia\, and has authored and co-authored many papers and reports on the Mojave Desert\, eastern California\, and Australia. Since 2005 he has also been documenting rock art and associated traditional stories in northern Australia. He is a founding member of Western Rock Art Research\, a non-profit organization dedicated to the study and management of rock art. \nFor more information on the lecture\, please contact hedrick@ucsc.edu

SUMMARY:PhD+ Workshop: "Navigating Career Choices Post-PhD - Reflections on Work and Identity"
DESCRIPTION:“Navigating Career Choices Post-PhD: Reflections on Work and Identity” \nThis workshop will provide space to discuss\, critique\, and engage with some of the thorny questions about transitioning to non-tenure track careers. Kelly Anne Brown\, Associate Director of UCHRI\, and Shana Melnysyn\, Competitive Grants Officer at UCHRI\, will share their perspectives as PhDs at work in an Institute that hires many PhDs. We will begin by engaging with a few examples of “quit lit” from across the affective spectrum\, and discuss how we might approach them as primary sources in our research on broadening career horizons. We will ask graduate students to come prepared with questions about pursuing different kinds of work–particularly those they wouldn’t feel comfortable asking in other contexts. \nEvent Photos: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nPlease read these texts ahead of the workshop and join the conversation: \n\nJust Another Piece of Quit Lit\, by Joseph Conley\nThe Sublimated Grief of the Left Behind\, by Erin Bartram\nThesis Hatement\, by Rebecca Schuman\nQuit Lit is About Labor Conditions\, by Katie Rose Guest\n\n\n \n  \n—– \nAbout the PhD+ Workshop Series \nPlease join us for the third year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by the Institute for Humanities Research. We 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. \nLunch will be served. \n  \nPlease RSVP below: \nLoading…
