SUMMARY:Critical Nutrition Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Advice about what to eat for health and well being is pervasive in the modern world\, and such advice is delivered as if it were uncontroversial\, universally applicable\, welcome\, and effective. When it appears not to work\, rather than reflection on the scientific\, cultural\, and sociological underpinnings of the endeavor\, the response has been for more informative food labels and more emphasis on food education. What’s wrong or missing in conventional nutritional practice? What are its effects in terms of human health and social justice? What other approaches might work better? This symposium will bring together six leading scholars of nutrition\, public health\, and food science to discuss and debate the place of nutrition science in public health policies and cultural politics today. Representing such disciplines as geography\, public health\, sociology\, and communication\, invited guests include Charlotte Biltekoff (American Studies and Food Science\, UC Davis)\, Jessica Hayes-Conroy (Women’s Studies\, Hobart and William Smith Colleges)\, Adele Hite (Public Health\, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill)\, Aya H. Kimura (Women’s Studies\, University of Hawai’i-Manoa)\, Hannah Landecker (Sociology and Center for Society and Genetics\, UCLA)\, and Jessica Mudry (Center for Engineering in Society\, Concordia University). UCSC food scholars Julie Guthman\, Melissa Caldwell\, Nancy Chen\, and Jake Metcalf will provide commentary. The format of the symposium is designed to open up and stimulate discussion and debate among all participants: presenters\, discussants\, and attendees. \nThis event is sponsored by the Multi-campus Research Program on Food and the Body and the “Knowing Food” Research Cluster of the Center for Global\, International\, and Regional Studies. Additional support has been provided by the Community Studies Program\, the Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems\, the Science & Justice Research Center\, the Departments of Anthropology\, Environmental Studies\, and Sociology. \nThe event will be held March 8 from 9-5:30 in 261 Social Sciences I and is open to the public. Please RSVP to Lisa Nishioka (global@ucsc.edu) if you plan to attend. \nFor questions regarding the program contact Julie Guthman (jguthman@ucsc.edu)

SUMMARY:Nathaniel Deutsch\, “The Jewish Dark Continent: Inventing Jewish Ethnography in the Russian Pale of Settlement”
DESCRIPTION:The Anthropology Cultural Colloquium presents: \nNathaniel Deutsch\nNathaniel Deutsch\, Professor of History\, UCSC \n\n\n“The Jewish Dark Continent: Inventing Jewish Ethnography in the Russian Pale of Settlement”\nOn the eve of World War I\, the Russian Jewish writer\, socialist revolutionary\, and aspiring ethnographer named An-sky set out on an ethnographic expedition into the Pale of Settlement\, the area of the Russian Empire to which a vast majority of its Jews were restricted prior to the Revolution. Over the course of three seasons\, An-sky and his team recorded thousands of tales\, jokes\, and incantations\, took hundreds of photos\, and collected numerous artifacts\, manuscripts\, and other objects. They also designed a massive life-cycle questionnaire consisting of 2087 questions entitled “The Jewish Ethnographic Program” for use in the field. An-sky’s goal was to document the traditional Jewish life of the Pale of Settlement before it disappeared forever and\, in the process\, to create a distinctly Jewish ethnography. \nNathaniel Deutsch is Professor of History and Literature at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\, where he is also the Director of the Institute for Humanities Research and the Co-Director of the Center for Jewish Studies. He has been a professor at Swarthmore College\, a visiting professor at Stanford University\, and the The Workmen’s Circle/Dr. Emanuel Patt Visiting Professor in Eastern European Jewish Studies at the YIVO Institute. Deutsch is the author of five books\, most recently The Jewish Dark Continent: Life and Death in the Russian Pale of Settlement(Harvard University Press\, 2011)\, for which he received a Guggenheim Fellowship. \nContact: Allyson Ramage\, aramage@ucsc.edu for more information.
