SUMMARY:Unimagining Communities
DESCRIPTION:India China Institute in Partnership with Historical Studies of The New School for Social Research\, delivers the annual Carol Breckenridge memorial lecture in south Asian history. The lecture\, titled “Unimagining Communities- Suspicion and the Writing of History in Post-Colonial Societies” will be presented by Prof. Dilip Menon\, the Mellon Chair of Indian Studies and the Director of the Centre for Indian Studies at the University of Witwatersrand in Africa. Prof. Menon was educated at the Universities of Delhi\, Oxford and Cambridge. His research for the past decade has engaged with issues of caste\, socialism and equality in modern India. Currently\, he is working on issues of cultural and intellectual history and is engaged in a project on the writing of history in India between 1850 and 1960. The work inaugurated at the Centre is interdisciplinary and transnational in approach and looks afresh at issues of colonialism\, modernity and migration in the Global South.Carol Breckenridge (1942-2009)\, a historian and scholar of global culture\, brought along with her to different cities and campuses not only her erudition and insight into intellectual debates on global and transnational issues\, but also her formidable gift of inspiring others through a rare combination of charm\, generosity of spirit\, hospitality and hard work.The journal Public Culture which she founded in 1988 with her husband and soulmate Arjun Appadurai\, the later Sister Cities Project\, and the articles and books she wrote and co-edited with colleagues\, have brought new perceptions to the field and remain as evidence on her unstinting efforts against the stultifying effects of academic parochialism on the world at large. At The New School for Social Research and at other universities where Carol and Arjun have lived and taught\, Breckenridge will be remembered for the way she personified these very commitments by her concern and care for her junior colleagues and students. \n\n\n\nBuy TicketsBuy Tickets on Eventbrite

SUMMARY:A People's Constitution: The Everyday Life of Law in the Indian Republic.
DESCRIPTION:The India China Institute is proud to present “A People’s Constitution: The Everyday Life of Law in the Indian Republic”\, a talk with author\, lawyer\, and Yale professor Rohit De on his book\, A People’s Constitution. \n\n\n\n“What difference did the enactment of the the Indian constitution make on everyday lives of its citizens? It has long been contended that the Indian Constitution of 1950\, a document in English created by elite consensus\, has had little influence on India’s greater population. Drawing upon the previously unexplored records of the Supreme Court of India\, A People’s Constitution upends this narrative and shows how the Constitution actually transformed the daily lives of citizens in profound and lasting ways. This remarkable legal process was led by individuals on the margins of society\, and Rohit De looks at how drinkers\, smugglers\, petty vendors\, butchers\, and prostitutes—all despised minorities—shaped the constitutional culture. \n\n\n\nThe Constitution came alive in the popular imagination so much that ordinary people attributed meaning to its existence\, took recourse to it\, and argued with it. Focusing on the use of constitutional remedies by citizens against new state regulations seeking to reshape the society and economy\, De illustrates how laws and policies were frequently undone or renegotiated from below using the state’s own procedures. De examines four important cases that set legal precedents: a Parsi journalist’s contestation of new alcohol prohibition laws\, Marwari petty traders’ challenge to the system of commodity control\, Muslim butchers’ petition against cow protection laws\, and sex workers’ battle to protect their right to practice prostitution.” \n\n\n\nThe Author: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRohit De is lawyer and an Assistant Professor of History at Yale University.  Prior to Yale\, he was a Mellon Research Fellow at the Centre for History and Economics at the University of Cambridge. He has worked with Chief Justice K.G Balakrishnan of the Supreme Court of India and worked on constitutional reform projects in Sri Lanka and Nepal. He is currently working on a history of civil liberties arising out of Asia and Africa post WW2 and mediated through Indian diasporic lawyers.

SUMMARY:Agrarian Elites in Urban Real Estate: Urban and Land Transformations along New Economic Corridors in Liberalizing India
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nProfessor Sai Balakrishnan will be exploring the narrative movements of urbanization in contemporary India from megacities to the contested geographies along new economic corridors. As policymakers search for new market-oriented means for the transfer of land from agrarian constituencies to infrastructural promoters and urban developers\, the re-allocation of property control is erupting into volatile land-based social conflicts. Professor Balakrishnan puts forward the argument that some of India’s most decisive conflicts over its urban futures will unfold in these corridor regions where electorally strong agrarian propertied classes are coming into direct encounters with financially powerful incoming urban firms. She calls for new theories of land and urbanization that are capable of incorporating within them the agrarian political economy. Through focusing on the agrarian to urban land-use change along India’s first economic corridor\, the Mumbai-Pune Expressway\, she articulates how diverse agrarian property regimes shape the trajectories of contemporary urbanization in liberalizing India.An India China Institute public event. RSVP here to register for the event. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Welfare\, Work\, And Poverty: Social Assistance in China W/ Qin Gao
DESCRIPTION:Welfare\, Work\, And Poverty\n\n\n\nTalk by Professor Qin Gao\n\n\n\nOctober 12\, 2017 | 4:00-5:30 pmHirshon Suite | 55 W 13th St NY New York NY 10011 \n\n\n\nWelfare\, Work\, and Poverty\, Professor Qin Gao’s new book\,  provides the first systematic and comprehensive evaluation of the impacts and effectiveness of China’s primary social assistance program — Minimum Livelihood Guarantee\, or Dibao — since its inception in 1993. Dibao serves the dual function of providing a basic safety net for the poor and maintaining social and political stability. Despite currently being the world’s largest welfare program in terms of population coverage\, evidence on Dibao’s performance has been lacking. This book offers important new empirical evidence and draws policy lessons that are timely and useful for both China and beyond. Welfare\, Work\, and Poverty is essential reading for political scientists\, economists\, sociologists\, public policy researchers\, and social workers interested in learning about and understanding contemporary China. \n\n\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER \n\n\n\nQin Gao is a professor at the Columbia School of Social Work (CSSW)\, a faculty affiliate of the Columbia Population Research Center and of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute\, and the director of Columbia University’s China Center for Social Policy. She is also an Academic Board Member of the China Institute for Income Distribution at Beijing Normal University and a Public Intellectual Fellow of the National Committee on United States-China Relations. Before joining the CSSW faculty\, she was a professor and the Coordinator of International Initiatives at Fordham University’s Graduate School of Social Service. Dr. Gao’s current research examines the following topics: 1) the Chinese welfare state in transition: size\, structure\, and redistributive effects; 2) effectiveness and impacts of dibao\, China’s primary social assistance program\, and other anti-poverty policies and programs; 3) gender inequality in time use in China and beyond; 4) social protection for rural-to-urban migrants in China and Asian American immigrants; and 5) cross-national comparative social policies and programs. Dr. Gao’s work has been supported by multiple national and international funding sources such as the National Social Science Fund of China\, UNICEF\, and the World Bank. \n\n\n\nLIMITED SEATING

SUMMARY:Reflections on the Belt and Road Forum
DESCRIPTION:Reflections on the Belt and Road Forum\n \nJune 20\, 2017 | 5:30 – 7:00 pmTheresa Lang Center (55 W. 13th St\, 2nd floor\, The New School) * Updated Event Venue\n \nFeatured Speakers: Liang Huijiang\, Wang Wen\, Zha Daojiong\, and Zhai Kun\n \nRSVP Now \n \nAbout the Talk: \n \nLast month China held a major international forum on its Belt and Road Initiative\, the first of its kind since Beijing announced the project in 2013. Drawing official delegations\, scholars\, entrepreneurs\, as well as representatives from financial institutions and media organizations from 130 nations\, the forum was an important step in China’s drive to develop infrastructure and connectivity along the “Belt and Road Corridors” from China to Africa\, Europe\, South and Southeast Asia. Though many important details about the initiative remain unclear\, foreign businesses are already vying for opportunities to join the project\, and their excitement was primed by President’s Xi Jinping’s promise at the Forum to raise tens of billions of dollars in new financing. The event generated some concern about whether actual profits and benefits will match expectations. From the perspectives both of recipient countries and investors\, the Belt and Road Initiative represents huge potential and significant risk. Amid the enthusiasm and apprehension surrounding the project\, a robust dialogue and accurate information are critical. In support of this\, the National Committee and the India China Institute of The New School are pleased to welcome a delegation of financial and economic scholars led by the director general of the International Finance Department of the China Development Bank\, Mr. Liang Huijiang\, to discuss the May 2017 Belt and Road Forum on June 20\, 2017. \n \nAbout the Speakers: \n \n\n\n\n \nMr. Liang Huijiang is director general of the International Finance Department of the China Development Bank (CDB).

In that capacity\, he was in charge of developing strategies as the CDB transformed itself from a semi-government agency into a market-oriented bank. Before joining CDB\, Mr. Liang worked in the International Department of the People’s Bank of China\, where he was involved in annual consultations between China and the IMF and reform of China’s exchange rate regime. \n \nMr. Liang holds a master’s degree in finance from the London Business School (2004)\, a master’s in economics from the PBC School of Finance\, Tsinghua University (1996)\, and a bachelor’s degree in economics from Hangzhou University (1993). \n \n\n\n\n \nDr. Wang Wen is a professor and executive dean of the Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China.

SUMMARY:China: End of the Reform Era w/ Carl Minzner
DESCRIPTION: \n\n\n\nChina: End of the Reform Era\n\n\n\nA Public Talk by Professor Carl Minzner\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMonday\, May 1st\, 20174:00-6:00 pmOrozco Room (712)\, 66 West 12th St\, New York\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin ICI for an exciting talk by University of Fordham law professor Carl Minzner as he discusses the core factors that have characterized China’s ending reform era. Professor Minzner’s recent publications include “China After the Reform Era” and “The Rise and Fall of Chinese Legal Education”. \n\n\n\nAbout the Talk: \n\n\n\nChina’s reform era is ending. Core factors that characterized it – political stability\, ideological openness\, and rapid economic growth – are unraveling.  Since the early 1990s\, Beijing’s leaders have set their face against fundamental political reform of China’s one-Party system.  On the surface\, this has been a success.  The past three decades have seen political turmoil topple former Communist East bloc regimes\, internal unrest overtake Mideast nations\, and populist movements rise to challenge established Western democracies.  China\, in contrast\, has appeared a relative haven of stability and growth. But a closer look at China’s reform era reveals a different truth.  Over the past three decades a frozen political system has fueled both the rise of entrenched interests within the Communist Party itself\, and the systematic underdevelopment of institutions of governance among state and society at large.  Economic cleavages have widened\, social unrest worsened\, and ideological polarization deepened.  Now\, to address these looming problems\, China’s leaders are progressively cannibalizing institutional norms and practices that have formed the bedrock of the regime’s stability in the reform era.  Uncertainty hangs in the air as a new future slouches towards Beijing to be born. \n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker: \n\n\n\nCarl Minzner is an expert in Chinese law and governance. He has written extensively on these topics in both academic journals and the popular press\, including op-eds appearing in the New York Times\, Wall Street Journal\, Los Angeles Times\, and Christian Science Monitor. Prior to joining Fordham\, he was an Associate Professor of Law at Washington University in St. Louis. In addition\, he has served as Senior Counsel for the Congressional-Executive Commission on China\, International Affairs Fellow for the Council on Foreign Relations\, and Yale-China Legal Education Fellow at the Xibei Institute of Politics and Law in Xi’an\, China. He has also worked as an Associate at McCutchen & Doyle (Palo Alto\, CA) and as a Law Clerk for Hon. Raymond Clevenger of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

SUMMARY:Kailash Cartographies | Closing Reception & Faculty Talk
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Landscapes Talk\n\n\n\nCome listen as New School faculty members and ICI staff share their insights from fieldwork in India\, Nepal and Tibet as part of a three-year Sacred Himalaya Initiative focused on religion\, ecology and culture in the Himalayas. Faculty involved with ICI’s research project–Rafi Youatt (NSSR)\, Mark Larrimore (Lang)\, Nitin Sawhney (Media Studies) and Sreshta Rit Premnath (Parsons)–will talk about their experiences traveling in these sacred landscapes and how this work has influenced their own artistic and academic practices as well as their teaching. A photo presentation highlighting some of the key areas from the field research will be featured. \n\n\n\n5:00-6:00 pm – Gallery Tour and Reception6:00-7:00 pm – Faculty Talk and Presentation \n\n\n\nThe opening reception and gallery tour will take place in the Aronson Gallery\, 66 Fifth Ave. The talk will take place next door in the Kellen Auditorium. \n\n\n\nDrinks and refreshments will be served. The event is free and will be Live streamed on the official New School channel. Watch it there. \n\n\n\nThis event is the final event for the Kailash Cartographies exhibition. Learn more about the month-long exhibit here. \n\n\n\nA press release about the exhibit can be found here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Exhibit\n\n\n\nKailash Cartographies is an exhibition of artists from India\, China\, Nepal\, and the US exploring conceptions of sacred geography\, particularly in the Himalayas.  Devotees encounter the sacred through ritual\, art\, and acts of pilgrimage and circumambulation of mountains and temples.  The artists in the exhibition pose questions about the nature of both the sacred and the secular by drawing on the points of connection with landscapes and lived worlds. The photographs\, videos\, works on paper and installations\, deploy cartographic modes that are both personal and political. \n\n\n\nThe title of the exhibition refers to Mount Kailash\, the symbolic center of the Buddhist and Bön cosmos and the seat of Shiva for Hindus. Although associated with a multiplicity of geographical sites and religious representations\, its earthly manifestation is most often located in Tibet. “It is the simultaneously singular and plural aspect of this sacred geography that caught our imagination\,” said Sreshta Rit Premnath\, curator of the exhibition and participating artist. “Every gesture within such a geography is both specifically located yet can be powerfully invoked elsewhere.” \n\n\n\nThe exhibition emerges from a three-year research project of The New School’s India China Institute focused on Sacred Landscapes and Sustainable Futures in the Himalayas.  In conjunction with this endeavor\, a group of artists initiated creative explorations during 2015-2016.  Many of the works in this exhibition were the direct result of a creative workshop convened in Kathmandu in March 2016. The exhibit is part of ICI’s ongoing Sacred Himalaya Initiative research project focused on Mount Kailash in Tibet. \n\n\n\nFeatured artists are Atul Bhalla\, Kevin Bubriski\, Vibha Galhotra\, Sreshta Rit Premnath\, Ashmina Ranjit\, Nitin Sawhney\, Radhika Subramaniam\, Charwei Tsai & Tsering Tashi Gyalthang\, Zheng Bo & Jiang Chao and Qiu Zhijie. \n\n\n\nPresented by the Sheila C. Johnson Design Center and the India China Institute.

DESCRIPTION: “The Dilemmas of Higher Education: India in Comparative Perspective”\n\n\n\nA Public Talk by Professor Devesh Kapur\n\n\n\nMonday\, November 14\, 2016 | 4:00 – 6:00 pmOrozco Room (#712)\, 66 West 12th St.\, NY\, NY \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the last two decades the expansion of higher education in India has been the most rapid in human history after that of China. The talk will first document the characteristics of growth and change in higher education in India. It will then address the tensions among the core goals of growth\, access\, cost and quality and the paradox of large skill premiums despite massive increases in supply even as underemployment among the college educated has been rising. Finally\, the talk will examine the political economy of higher education in India\, and why there has been so little change in the regulation of higher education and the governance of higher education institutions – and its consequences. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker: \n\n\n\nDevesh Kapur was appointed Director of the Center for the Advanced Study of India in 2006.

Prior to arriving at Penn\, Professor Kapur was Associate Professor of Government at the University of Texas at Austin\, and before that the Frederick Danziger Associate Professor of Government at Harvard. His research focuses on human capital\, national and international public institutions\, and the ways in which local-global linkages\, especially international migration\, and international institutions\, affect political and economic change in developing countries\, especially India. He is the author of Diaspora\, Democracy and Development: The Impact of International Migration from India on India (Princeton University Press\, 2010).

SUMMARY:"Aboveground-40 Moments of Transformation" Chinese Feminist Photo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:“Aboveground—40 Moments of Transformation”  \n\n\n\nA photography exhibition of young feminist activism in China \n\n\n\nFebruary 12-26\, 2016 \n\n\n\nSkybridge Art Space \n\n\n\n65 West 11th Street\, 4th Floor\, New York\, NY 10011 \n\n\n\nThe India China Institute is pleased to announce “Aboveground—40 Moments of Transformation”\, a photography exhibition of young feminist activism and the struggle for gender equality in China. The exhibition is co-hosted by China Rights in Action\, Feminist Task Force\, and Asian American Arts Centre. \n\n\n\nFeminism calls for freedom from restrictive gender roles and for gender equality in the realization of social\, cultural\, economic and political rights. “Aboveground—40 Moments of Transformation” documents young Chinese activists’ impressive efforts to combat stigma\, discrimination\, and violence against women in pursuit of these ideals. These activists use public spaces as their battlefront to gain visibility and spark open dialogue. But in China\, bringing the fight for gender equality above ground comes at great personal risk. This exhibition frames and explores the determination with which these young feminists are pushing for a China with true gender equality. \n\n\n\nBackground information: \n\n\n\nIn 1995\, 189 governments came together in China and adopted the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. These documents were a remarkable milestone\, committing to a vision for women and girls of equal rights\, freedom\, and opportunities in all spheres of society and of lives free from want\, fear\, and violence. Two decades later\, ironically\, feminists and lawyers in China who fight for such equal rights are subjected to search\, harassment\, and even detention. On March 7\, 2015\, the Chinese government detained five women activists on the eve of International Women’s Rights Day for their efforts to call attention to sexual harassment. The women received an outpouring of support from feminists\, women’s groups\, human right organizations\, and politicians around the world. But dark clouds are still gathering inside China. Although “The Feminist Five” were released after 37 days\, it was conditioned on a strict form of bail that limits their movement\, associations\, and speech\, and they are still treated as criminal suspects by Chinese police.

SUMMARY:The Fear of Art:  32nd Social Research conference
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Public Scholarship is pleased to present the 32nd Social Research conference\, “The Fear of Art\,” on Thursday and Friday\, February 12 and 13\, 2015\, at The New School in New York City.Ai Weiwei will give the keynote address with a video he is creating especially for the conference\, “The Censorship of Artists: Artists in Prison\, Artists in Exile.” \n\n\n\nWe have chosen this theme for our next conference because freedom of expression remains under threat in both totalitarian and democratic states. Artists continue to be imprisoned and exiled and art continues to be banned and destroyed\, all of which gives evidence of the power of images to unsettle\, to speak truth to power\, to question our cherished cultural norms and what we hold sacred. \n\n\n\nThe conference aims to examine how art can threaten\, terrify\, and provoke the wrath of political\, religious\, and cultural regimes. Speakers will examine the history of art censorship and the role of artists as collaborators and rebels. The agenda also pairs artists and scholars to discuss activist art\, the threat posed by art\, the potency of art\, artists at risk\, and artists in exile. Museum and gallery directors will discuss who does the policing and ask: What is the role of self-censorship? \n\n\n\nThe conference is co-sponsored by the Vera List Center for Art and Politics\, PEN American Center\, and the India China Institute at The New School. The conference has been made possible with generous support from Agnes Gund\, The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, Larry Warsh\, the Ford Foundation\, and ArteEast. \n\n\n\nThe director and founder (1988) of the Social Research conference series is Arien Mack\, Alfred and Monette Marrow Professor of Psychology at The New School for Social Research\, who has been the editor of Social Research since 1970. For the history of the conference series\, visit the Social Research conference series site.

SUMMARY:Colloquium on the Economies and Societies of India and China
DESCRIPTION:The India China Institute (ICI) at The New School is launching a new research forum\, the Colloquium on the Economies and Societies of India and China\, to promote the comparative study of the political economies of modern China and India.\n\n\n\nCOSMOPOLITAN CAPITALISM:Local State-Society Relations in China and India\n\n\n\n“State-society relations” typically refers to the relationship between a Weberian nation-state and the citizens residing within its administratively defined and coercively enforced territorial borders. This paper departs from conventional usages of both state and society by focusing on the local state\, on the one hand\, and a less territorialized conception of society\, on the other. Empirically\, the paper demonstrates the logic of this dual definitional stretch of state-society relations by examining different expressions of “cosmopolitan capitalism” in three paired localities in China and India: 1) Zhejiang/Gujarat\, 2) Zhongguancun/Bangalore\, and 3) Guangdong/Kerala.\n\n\n\nPresenter: Kellee TsaiProfessor and Head of the Division of Social Science\, Hong Kong University of Science & TechnologyProfessor of Political Science\, Johns Hopkins University

DESCRIPTION: \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nAwash with militancy\, ground zero for climate change\, and on the brink of nuclear war\, the Indian subcontinent has long been known as “the world’s most dangerous place.” But after decades of deadlock in the subcontinent\, India is moving beyond South Asia for its strategic needs—and making peace with Pakistan in the process.\n \n\nICI is pleased to present a discussion with Neil Padukone. Mr. Padukone is a Geopolitics Fellow at the Takshashila Institution and a former Public Service Fellow at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government\, his work has been published in The Atlantic\, Foreign Policy\, the Journal of International Affairs\, Newsweek’s Daily Beast\, The National Interest\, the World Affairs Journal\, the Huffington Post\, and the Economic and Political Weekly\, among others. Neil is a former foreign affairs columnist at the Christian Science Monitor and South-Central Asia commentator for Russia Today news. His  book Beyond South Asia: India’s Strategic Evolution and the Reintegration of the Subcontinent was published in August 2014.\n \n\n \n \n  \nJoining Mr. Padukone will be Thomas Graham.
