SUMMARY:Critical Conversations in Cultural Heritage
DESCRIPTION:3rd Annual Research Conference  \nFree and Open to the Public\nAdvance Registration Required \nAppeals to “heritage” have become increasingly common and visible in recent decades. Whether within the realms of the promotion and re-creation of history\, claims to sovereignty\, protection of landscapes and climate\, or economic development\, connection to the past is often utilized as a demonstration of legitimacy and authority. Making sense of these diverse appeals to heritage and the many ways that the past becomes meaningfully constituted in the present is a challenge. This is due both to the complexity of the issues as well as the fact that heritage scholars tend to be widely scattered between departments and disciplines. To address these challenges our conference at the University of California\, Santa Cruz will bring together an interdisciplinary community of scholars to discuss current research and evaluate future directions for this rapidly growing\, yet still decentralized\, field of study. \nKeynote Speaker\nJane Lydon\, University of Western Australia \nSpeakers\nJane Anderson\, New York University \nSony Atalay\, University of Massachusetts \nJon Daehnke\, UC Santa Cruz \nRobin Gray\, UC Santa Cruz \nRichard Leventhal\, University of Pennsylvania \nAmy Lonetree\, UC Santa Cruz \nKathryn Lafrenz Samuels\, University of Maryland \nTsim D.

SUMMARY:Morris Ratner: "A Monument Man in the Courtroom: Litigating the Holocaust"
DESCRIPTION:UC Santa Cruz will present a lecture by UC Hastings College of the Law Professor Morris Ratner titled “A Monument Man in the Courtroom: Litigating the Holocaust\,” on Monday\, April 7\, at 7 p.m.\, at UCSC’s University Center. \nProfessor Morris Ratner successfully prosecuted Holocaust-era private law claims against Swiss\, German\, Austrian\, and French entities that profited from Nazi atrocities by retaining dormant bank accounts\, failing to pay on life insurance policies\, and benefitting from the use of slave labor. Ratner’s litigation resulted in a series of settlements that\, together\, yielded payments in excess of $8 billion to victims of Nazi persecution. Using Holocaust litigation as a lens\, this lecture explores the topics of “what ‘justice’ means for victims of major atrocities like the Holocaust\, the role of private litigation in advancing social causes\, and the ability of individual advocates to prevail on behalf of victims in seemingly lost causes.” Ratner’s discussion of “social justice lawyering” also addresses the question: “Did it matter whether the lawyers in the Holocaust cases were–like the victims–Jewish\, Gay\, or Romani?” \nWatch the Video\n\nMorris Ratner joined the UC Hastings Faculty in 2012\, after teaching at Harvard Law School. An expert in civil procedure\, legal ethics\, and law practice management\, Ratner’s research explores ethical\, procedural\, and organizational questions that arise in multi-party actions\, including class actions and multidistrict litigations. Ratner worked as a litigator at the San Francisco-based plaintiffs’ firm Lieff\, Cabraser\, Heimann & Bernstein\, LLP\, where he was a partner for 10 years. During that time he prosecuted product liability\, mass personal injury\, consumer\, and human rights actions. \nPlease join us for this inaugural lecture in the Hastings Social Justice Speakers Series given by Hastings faculty at UCSC. The Series is a product of the UCSC-Hastings collaboration that also features the “3+3 BA/JD” Program which enables UCSC students to complete the BA and JD degrees in six\, rather than the usual seven\, years by attending both UCSC and Hastings College of the Law. \nAdmission is free and the public is invited\, with pre-registration encouraged to ensure a seat in the event of a sold out event. \nQuestions: Please call Kristin Palma at 831.459.5075\, or e-mail kpalma@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:Are You My Data? A Research Ethics Forum
DESCRIPTION:The Office of Research is sponsoring a series of Research Ethics Fora for faculty\, postdocs and graduate students.  The first forum in the Series “Are You My Data?” is on Tuesday May 8th in the Alumni Room of the University Center and is hosted by Prof. Jennifer Reardon of the Science & Justice Working Group.  This is an excellent opportunity to learn more about the challenges of managing research data. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre You My Data?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith a human genome sequenced and a map of variable sites in that genome created\, governments and many other public and private actors now seek to make genomic data relevant to health\, medicine and the society.  However\, to do so they must navigate the conjunction of two different approaches to data.  Within the biomedical domain there are important\, well-articulated infrastructures and commitments arising out of concerns about individual rights\, patient privacy and the doctor-patient relationship that limit access to biomedical data.  This stands in stark contrast to the culture of open access forged by those who worked on the Human Genome Project\, and that has continued to be a central commitment of ongoing Human Genome research.  Thus\, architects of the genomic revolution face competing\, complex technical and ethical challenges that arise from this meeting of these domains with substantially different ethos.  Additionally\, the rise of social media has led to a broad and contested discussion about the proper relationship between persons and data and who profits through access to it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe goal of the proposed workshop is to map out the challenges of building and controlling genomic data architectures that are responsive to these conditions.  Rather than suggesting that either openness or privacy is the answer\, the workshop will ask which kinds of openness and privacy might be possible and adequate\, and in which contexts?   Further\, who has the authority to decide?  Who can/should authorize the flow of data and what forms of consent are required? What kinds of flow of data should be allowed (e.g.\, ones that lead back to persons\, etc.)?  Finally\, the workshop will consider questions around where and how data should be accessed.  Is “the cloud” a viable option?  What other options exist to manage deluging data\, and what ethical and material challenges do they present? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile the workshop will focus on the specific context of genomics\, of course the broader issues raised are not unique to genomics.  We hope the workshop is only one of  several we will host to consider the current gathering of fundamental and entwined issues of science\, engineering\, ethics and policy at the site of data. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n1:00-2:30 Panel 1: The Collision of Privacy and Openness\n2:30-2:45 Break\n2:45-4:15 Panel 2: Creating and Sustaining Trust\n4:15-4:30 BREAK\n4:30-5:00 Agenda Setting for Future Discussions \nSpeakers:\nConfirmed (*)\n*David Winickoff\, Associate Professor of Bioethics and Society\, UC Berkeley\n*Malia Fullerton\, Associate Professor in the Department of Bioethics & Humanities at the University of Washington School of Medicine\n*Bob Zimmerman\, Program Director\, Cancer Genome Hub\n*John Wilbanks\, VP of Science\, Science Commons

SUMMARY:Rethinking Capitalism
DESCRIPTION:Three decades of advances in financial economics have transformed global markets. As a matter of theory\, the valuing of options (financial products) became increasingly central to understanding the market in any commodity; as a matter of politics questions about the direction and sustainability of the market system were supplanted by questions about its volatility—how to manage the uncertainty that it creates. The Crisis of 2008 illustrates the need to better understand what is new\, and what is not\, about conceiving of capitalism as a whole in this way. This conference brings theories of economic value and regulation into conversation with the study of culture\, institutions\, ethics\, history\,  geography and theology. Its aim is to consider in what ways capitalism is producing a future that is unlike its past. Panel topics include: \n1) Eschatology\, Visualization and Scenario Planning\n2) Market Institutions\, Government and Crisis\n3) Affective\, Spatial and Material Flows of Value\n4) Social Risk\, Human Capital and Financializing Inequality\n5) Critique\, Confession and Conversion in the Aftermath of 2008.  \nPlease visit http://rethinkingcapitalism.ucsc.edu for more information.
