It was a study that was massively introduced\, translated\, and commented on in the 1990s and accompanied by deeper research after this period. This school of thought\, an important current division of Western Marxism\, had become an essential resource to cope with the problems of China during its era of opening reforms. Today\, the resources of the Frankfurt School are significant to China in building modernity and constructing culture. \n\n\n\nSeating is limited.

SUMMARY:International Relations Theory: Views Beyond the West Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Julien J. Studley Fund and the India China Institute present: \n\n\n\nInternational Relations Theory: Views Beyond the West\n\n\n\nMonday 14 OctoberTheresa Lang Community and Student Center (55 W 13th St.) \n\n\n\nThis conference reflects a textbook project for International Relations (IR).  It seeks to amend two main problems in contemporary IR theorizing: \n\n\n\n(1) The widespread division of labor in IR whereby “the West”/“the Center” produces theories deemed universal and “non-Western”/“out-of-Center” scholars serve only as native informants when localities deviate from the status quo. \n\n\n\n(2) The lack of concepts\, debates\, and authors from the Global South that address their issues and challenges\, obligations\, and aspirations. \n\n\n\nThe conference/project does not seek particularism\, but allows for and gives legitimacy to different claims of universalism. We propose\, in short\, to voice other kinds of IR: that is\, how the Global South and the Global North co-make world politics into what it is today. \n\n\n\nStudents of IR from the Global North and Global South will benefit from this conference/project. Global North students will learn why the Global South experiences “the international” differently but also where some important commonalities may lie. Global South students will finally have a text that speaks to them for them\, with concepts and examples that are familiar\, and with their needs taken into consideration. Ultimately\, this conference/project will help all students develop lives and careers in a globalizing context. \n\n\n\nSpeakers and panelists include: \n\n\n\nJulien J. Studley Graduate Program in International Affairs Professor L.H.M. Ling; Payal Banerjee\, Smith College; Navnita Behera\, University of Delhi; Cristina Inoue\, University of Brasília; Nizar Messari\, Al Akhawayn University; Joao Noguira\, Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro; Karen Smith\, University of Cape Town; and Arlene Tickner\, Universidad de los Andes. \n\n\n\nFor the full program click here.

SUMMARY:Food and Immigrant Life: The Role of Food in Forced Migration\, Migrant Labor\, and Recreating Home
DESCRIPTION:Day 1: Tishman Auditorium\, 66 W 12 St.\, First FlDay 2: Theresa Lang Center\, 55 W 13th St.\, Second Fl. \n\n\n\nThis conference will examine the complex relationships between food\, migration\, and immigration. Food scarcity is not only at the root of much human displacement and migration. The food industry also offers migrants an entry point into the U.S. economic system while\, simultaneously\, confines migrants to low wages and poor\, if not unsafe\, work conditions. In addition\, food is a primary vehicle for migrants to maintain their cultural identity\, which is so important to displaced peoples. Thisconference is an opportunity to firmly place issues of immigration and food service work in the context of a broader social justice agenda and to explore the central role food plays in expressing rich cultural heritage.The keynote address will be given by Dolores Huerta\, co-founder and first Vice President Emeritus of United Farm Workers of America\, on Thursday\, April 18 at 6:00pm. \n\n\n\nConfirmed speakers are Aurora Almendral\, Sean Basinski\, Yong Chen\, James Hathaway\, Ellen Ernst Kossek\, Saru Jayaraman\, Arup Maharatna\, Fabio Parasecoli\, Dwaine Plaza\, Krishnendu Ray\, Monique Truong\, Koko Warner\, and Jane Ziegelman. Visit the online program for all details. \n\n\n\nThe New School’s Center for Public Scholarship and the Food Studies Program presents this\, the 29th Social Research conference\, in collaboration with the Writing Program\, India China Institute\, Vera List Center for Art and Politics\, Center for New York City Affairs\, Global Studies Program\, Gender Studies Program\, and International Center for Migration\, Ethnicity\, and Citizenship (ICMEC).Visit the event website for up-to-date program information\, speaker biographies\, paper abstracts\, and ticket information at www.newschool.edu/cps/food.

SUMMARY:The Cultural Foundations of Chinese Communism: Mining the Anyuan Revolutionary Tradition
DESCRIPTION:How do we explain the surprising trajectory of the Chinese Communist revolution? Why has it taken such a different route from its Russian prototype? \n\n\n\nAn answer\, Elizabeth Perry suggests\, lies in the Chinese Communists’ creative deployment of cultural resources – during their revolutionary rise to power and afterward. Skillful “cultural positioning” and “cultural patronage” on the part of Mao Zedong\, his comrades\, and successors helped to construct a polity in which a foreign political system came to be accepted as familiarly “Chinese.” Illustrated by numerous colorful images\, Perry’s talk traces this process through a case study of the Anyuan coal mine\, where Mao and other early Communist leaders mobilized an influential labor movement at the beginning of their revolution. Once known as “China’s Little Moscow\,” Anyuan came over time to serve as a touchstone of “political correctness” that symbolized a distinctively Chinese revolutionary tradition. Perry explores the contested meanings of that tradition as contemporary Chinese debate their revolutionary past in search of a new political future. \n\n\n\nElizabeth J. Perry is the Henry Rosovsky Professor of Government and Director of the Harvard-Yenching Institute. She is a comparativist with special expertise in the politics of China. A fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship\, she sits on the editorial boards of nearly a dozen major scholarly journals\, holds honorary professorships at six Chinese universities\, and has served as the President of the Association for Asian Studies. Professor Perry’s research focuses on popular protest and grassroots politics in modern and contemporary China. \n\n\n\nHer books include Rebels and Revolutionaries in North China\, 1845-1945 (1980); Chinese Perspectives on the Nien Rebellion (1981); Popular Protest and Political Culture in Modern China (1992); Proletarian Power: Shanghai in the Cultural Revolution (1997); Silence and Voice in the Study of Contentious Politics (2001); Mao’s Invisible Hand: The Political Foundations of Adaptive Governance in China (2011); and Anyuan: Mining China’s Revolutionary Tradition (2012). Her book\, Shanghai on Strike: the Politics of Chinese Labor (1993)\, won the John King Fairbank prize from the American Historical Association. Her article\, “Chinese Conceptions of Rights” (2008)\, won the Heinz Eulau award from the American Political Science Association.

SUMMARY:Jai Bhim Comrade: Film Screening and Conversation with Anand Patwardhan\, India's Leading Documentary Filmmaker
DESCRIPTION:India China Institute and School of Media Studies at The New School invite you to a screening of the award-winning film\, Jai Bhim Comrade\,and a conversation with Anand Patwardhan. Nidhi Srinivas (Associate Professor of Nonprofit Management at Milano\, The New School) will chair a discussion following the event. Sumita Chakravarty (Associate Professor of Culture and Media\, The New School) and Toral Gajarawala (Assitant Professor of English at NYU\, and an expert on Dalit issues) will serve as discussants. \n\n\n\nAbout Jai Bhim Comrade \n\n\n\nFor thousands of years India’s Dalits were abhorred as “untouchables” denied education and treated as bonded labor. By 1923 Bhimrao Ambedkar broke the taboo\, won doctorates abroad and fought for the emancipation of his people. He drafted India’s Constitution\, led his followers to discard Hinduism for Buddhism. His legend still spreads through poetry and song. \n\n\n\nIn 1997 a statue of Dr. Ambedkar in a Dalit colony in Mumbai was desecrated with footwear. As angry residents gathered\, police opened fire killing 10. Vilas Ghogre\, a leftist poet\, hung himself in protest. \n\n\n\nJai Bhim Comrade\, shot over 14 years\, follows the poetry and music of people like Vilas and marks a subaltern tradition of reason that from the days of the Buddha\, has fought superstition and religious bigotry. \n\n\n\nReviews of the film are available on the film’s website. \n\n\n\nAnand PatwardhanAnand Patwardhan is India’s leading documentary filmmaker. For over four decades his investigative documentaries have charted life in modern India\, from the nature of its economic development to the power of nationalism and religious fundamentalism\, and the struggles by the poor and the marginalized for justice. It has taken legal action\, including a decision by India’s Supreme Court\, to prevent successive Indian governments from censoring his films and blocking them from being screened.

SUMMARY:India China Interactions: Second Interdisciplinary Symposium for Emerging Scholars on India China Studies
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this event is by invitation only. Please contact indiachina@newschool.edu if you would like to attend. Due to space limitations we are unable to accommodate all requests.\n\n\n\nThe Second Interdisciplinary Symposium for Emerging Scholars on India China Studies is part of ICI’s continuing commitment to build a community of scholars who are engaged in research that focuses on new and innovative approaches to understanding India-China relations. Presenters selected for this symposium share a broad interest in India-China relations in a globalizing world. Held in conjunction with India China Institute’s major spring 2013 conference\, Everyday Religion and Sustainable Environments in the Himalaya\, the symposium will provide a platform for a select group of early career scholars from India\, China\, and the United States to present their work and to participate in multi-disciplinary investigation and deliberation with distinguished scholars. \n\n\n\nWhen discussing the work of each of the presenters\, we hope to identify relevant methodological and substantive questions\, and where possible answers\, through a productive confrontation of diverse disciplinary perspectives. Relevant cross-cutting themes will include that of the role to be played by received and privileged spatial and institutional frames\, such as that of the nation-state\, in scholarly analyses within the field\, and that of how to relate historical and contemporary concerns while avoiding anachronistic fallacies.We hope that the symposium will provide a milestone in the intellectual definition and institutional development of the field\, enhance the sense of community within it\, and help to foster more productive directions for teaching and scholarship. \n\n\n\nPreliminary Symposium Agenda

SUMMARY:Economic Development and Inequality: What Can the Asian Experience Teach Us?
DESCRIPTION:A lecture by Vamsi VakulabharanamSchool of Economics\, University of Hyderabad\, India \n\n\n\nModerated by Mark Frazier\, Professor of Politics\, NSSR\, and ICI Academic Co-director \n\n\n\nDiscussants: Carl Riskin\, Professor of Economics\, Columbia Universityand Sanjay Reddy\, Professor of Economics\, NSSR\, and ICI Academic Co-director \n\n\n\nDevelopment and Inequality: What can the Asian Experience Teach Us? \n\n\n\nThe Asian experience of growth from the 1950s until now has had some of the most profound transformational effects on the global economy. The well-known East Asian Miracle\, and the closely following miracles of China and India have had dramatic effects on the structures of global production as well as on global measures of poverty and inequality. Perhaps less explored are the very divergent natures of their take-offs. In the first wave of Asian growth\, some Asian economies (such as Japan and the ‘Tiger’ economies) experienced a relatively equal early capitalist growth/development process between 1950s and 1980. Subsequent growth however became much more unequal. In the second wave of growth in countries such as China and India\, early capitalist growth/development since 1980 is associated with a sharp increase in inequality. How might one understand these different phenomena\, given that there is no clear standard economic theory that provides an explanation? In this paper\, I propose an explanation that draws from local political and economic structures of these economies and the deeper changes in global economy since 1980s. I seek to re-incorporate political economy insights to obtain a more holistic understanding of Asian growth and its effects on the global economy. In analyzing Asian economies\, the shift in regimes of global and local capitalisms\, and the implications for a deeper understanding of the relation between development and inequality are brought into sharp focus. \n\n\n\nAbout Vamsi Vakulabharanam \n\n\n\nVamsi Vakulabharanam is an Associate Professor of Economics at the University of Hyderabad in India. He is currently a grantee at the Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET) working on a project titled\, ‘Economic Development and Inequality: What Can the Asian Experience Teach Us?’ He was also a Fellow of the India China Institute of the New School between 2008 and 2010. He obtained his Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2004. He taught at the City University of New York between 2004 and 2008. He has focused his research on inequality in contemporary Asian economies including\, India and China. He has written on globalization and agrarian change in India\, and income/consumption and wealth inequality in China and India during the period of economic reforms. He has also worked on patterns of workforce development in China during the last decade. He has published his work in academic journals\, including World Development\, Development and Change\, Journal of Peasant Studies\, Journal of Development Studies\, Review of Radical Political Economics\, Economic and Political Weekly\, and Ethics and Economics\, and has chapters in multiple books.

SUMMARY:Trauma & Dissociation
DESCRIPTION:Trauma & Dissociation: 9/11 and the two faces of violence in the India/Pakistan partition\n\n\n\nWhile the scope of destruction of 9/11 and of the India/Pakistan Partition in 1946-48 can hardly be compared\, they nevertheless have in common trauma and dissociation. In 9/11 both therapists and patients were equally affected. Dr. Alan Roland\, psychoanalyst\, will speak both of his own reactions and those of his patients\, how current trauma arouses past traumas\, and how paranoid anxieties are aroused in many people. He will give specific examples of both. \n\n\n\nWhile reams have been written about Partition\, not until the 1990s has there been systematic study of the psychological effects of the two to three million killed in communal riots\, 16-18 million refugees\, 100\,000 women raped\, and 30\,000 women abducted to be married by the other side. The aftermath of Partition violence is still causing tremendous tensions and conflicts between India and Pakistan. \n\n\n\nBuilding on the work of Jayanti Basu\, a Kolcata psychoanalyst\, Dr. Roland will cite case material from two kinds of violence: 1) interviews with two brothers and their wives\, the former as boys having been on a train from Pakistan where only 250 out of 5\,000 persons survived a massacre\, and 2) patients of families who were able to leave the Punjab well before widespread violence occurred. The differences in repercussions are dramatic but both categories were deeply affected. The familial effects of trauma of South Asians will be contrasted with the more individualistic emphasis on trauma in the United States after 9/11. \n\n\n\nAbout Alan RolandAlan Roland\, Ph.D.\, is a practicing psychoanalyst on the Faculty and Board of Directors of the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis. He has written three books on Asians and Asian Americans\, including the latest one\, Journeys to Foreign Selves: Asians and Asian Americans in a Global Era (Oxford University Press). He has also participated in Ashis Nandy’s research project on interviewing Victims and Perpetrators of Partition Violence.

SUMMARY:Who is Xi? The Knowns and Unknowns of China's Political Future
DESCRIPTION:Who is Xi?A Chinese critic recently observed of the political elite\, “Those who are sharp and independent-minded will be eliminated by the system\, and the most obedient ones\, the ones without edges\, will get promoted.” \n\n\n\nXi Jinping will be promoted to the top leadership position of the Chinese Communist Party at its 18th Party Congress\, set to begin on November 8. This leadership succession\, which last took place in 2002\, puts Xi as “first among equals” in a collective leadership group comprising the Politburo and its Standing Committee–also to be unveiled at the Party Congress. \n\n\n\nXi Jinping’s recent speeches have been used by analysts to make a wide range of conflicting claims about China’s future. This lecture takes the occasion of the leadership transition to reflect on the study of Chinese politics and the sources of what has been termed “depoliticization\,” or the suppression of competition and debate among China’s political elite. It is argued that this depoliticization is a relatively recent phenomenon\, and a return to earlier party traditions of debate and deliberation is much needed to revitalize politics and public policy. This scenario is more likely than conventional claims that China is in some imagined “transition” toward democratization or other forms of regime transformation. \n\n\n\nAbout Mark FrazierMark Frazier teaches and writes about the political economy of China. In the Fall of 2012\, he joined The New School as Academic Co-director and Endowed Professor at the India China Institute and Professor at the Department of Politics. To his new role\, Frazier brings two decades of research on political economy and labor politics in China and on Chinese-Indian relations. Frazier\, who most recently was Associate Professor and Chair of the Department in International and Area Studies at the University of Oklahoma\, earned his Ph.D. in political science from the University of California\, Berkeley. He is the author of Socialist Insecurity: Pensions and the Politics of Uneven Development in China (Cornell\, 2010) and The Making of the Chinese Industrial Workplace: State\, Revolution and Labor Management (Cambridge\, 2002). His recent research examines the politics of labor and social policies in China.

SUMMARY:Geopolitics of Climate Change: China and India in the Arctic
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sanjay Chaturvedi\, a Fellow at India China Institute\, The New School\, and a Professor of Political Science at Panjab University\, Chandigarh\, India. \n\n\n\nDescription: In steadily proliferating popular\, academic and official narratives of anthropogenic global warming\, the Circumpolar Arctic\, marked by the imagery of ‘diminishing ice’\, ‘opening sea routes’ and ‘dwindling’ number of polar bears\, has come to geopolitically embody somewhat abstract category of ‘climate change’. As geopolitical tectonic plates continue to shift in the post-cold war international system\, and new alliances/alignments come to the fore\, Asia’s rise (especially with regard to China and India) is likely to impact the theory and practices of Arctic governance in hitherto unanticipated ways. Both China and India – appropriately called “planetary powers” by some (in view of the global ecological impact and fallout of their fast-growing economies) – look able and determined to act as mapmakers and world orderers in their own right The very fact that the material andthe symbolic rise of Asia is tempered with the uncertainties associated with the era of climate change and scarcities (goods\, resources and a clean environment) might further complicate the geopolitical discourse of Arctic “exceptionalism” and question at the same time increasingly untenable inside/outside geographies of cooperation centered on the Circumpolar Arctic.
