He is the author\, recently as well\, of The Illusion of Free Markets: Punishment and the Myth of Natural Order (Harvard 2011)\, and Occupy: Three Inquiries in Disobedience with Michael Taussig and W.J.T.

SUMMARY:Vanessa Ogle: "'Funk Money': Decolonization and the Expansion of Tax Havens\, 1950s-1960"
DESCRIPTION:If you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nThis talk explores the emergence of modern offshore tax havens as a way to reopen the history of the decades ca. 1920s-1980s. During these decades an archipelago of distinct legal spaces appeared in a world otherwise increasingly dominated by more sizable nation-states. Tax havens were particularly important among these spaces\, reaching from the Channel Islands\, Monaco\, and Luxembourg to the Bahamas\, Panama\, and Singapore\, among many others. The talk asks why tax havens in particular expanded significantly between ca. 1945 and 1965\, and points to decolonization and colonial systems of taxation as one answer. It thus sheds light on a crucial period during which much of today’s tax avoidance industry got off the ground\, with lasting implications for the rise of inequality in Europe and North America. \nVanessa Ogle received her PhD at Harvard in 2011\, Assistant\, was a Associate Professor in modern European history at the University of Pennsylvania\, 2011-2017\,  and is currently an Associate Professor\, modern European history\, UC Berkeley\, 2017-present. \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:Counterpoints Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Counterpoints: Bay Area Data and Stories for Resisting Displacement\nAn Atlas by the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project \n \nThis event will feature members of the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project will be offering a preview of their new atlas manuscript\, Counterpoints: Bay Area Data and Stories for Resisting Displacement\, which will be released by PM Press in the spring of 2020. The Anti-Eviction Mapping Project (AEMP) is a data visualization\, digital cartography\, and multimedia collective based in the San Francisco Bay Area. The project aims to inform\, empower\, and activate communities impacted by housing inequity and displacement\, supporting the work of collectives fighting for housing justice. By excavating and creating pertinent data\, narratives\, and maps\, the AEMP reorients and repositions power in the community and in the hands of those who are working to restore housing equity in low-income communities and communities of color. Bringing together artists\, activists\, oral historians\, cartographers\, muralists\, and more\, AEMP is rooted in the idea that community-based knowledge production is essential in fighting displacement. \nWhile AEMP has produced hundreds of online interactive maps and oral histories\, numerous videos and reports\, and even several murals\, light projections\, zines\, and posters\, over the last year the project has launched into a new cartographic endeavor. Counterpoints brings together dozens of artists\, activists\, designers\, and cartographers to produce a manuscript-length series of maps\, graphics\, poems\, and text. Content is divided into seven chapters\, including: Migration and Relocation; Indigenous Geographies; Evictions and Root Shock; Public Health and Environmental Racism; Financial Speculation and Speculative Futures; Carcerality and Abolition; and Transportation\, Infrastructure\, and Economy. Counterpoints encompasses geographies ranging from Vallejo to Santa Cruz in an effort to tell a regional story of gentrification\, particularly as it is racialized and classed. Different project members are editing and producing original visual content for each chapter\, and also working with numerous new community and partners and contributors\, thereby expanding the existing scope of AEMP’s work. In addition to the book\, AEMP crafting online interactive content and downloadable educational material\, which will be available on the PM Press and AEMP websites.
