SUMMARY:China's Two Mega-Event Moments: The 2008 Beijing Games and 2010 Shanghai Expo in Historical and Comparative Perspective
DESCRIPTION:This illustrated talk will focus on the meaning of China’s first Olympics and first World’s Fair as spectacles and effort to “rebrand” the PRC as a thoroughly modern country with state-of-the-art urban centers.

SUMMARY:Moving Out Living In
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nIndia China Institute invites you to join us for a special presentation by Zhang Hai\, an adjunct professor at Parson’s\, The New School for Design. \n  \nThe real cases of housing and urban developments in Shenzhen and Shanghai offered opportunities and context to better understand how cities and people in China adapt to rapid urban growth beyond China’s impressive growth figures and statistics. The presentation will consist of a series of award-winning photographs\, short films and voices of various parties including the Chinese residents\, the government officials\, the real estate developers\, the designers and the scholars. It is a bottom-up approach to put the people into the forefront of the discussion\, and yet with a very close connection with the land-use policies\, economic and political measures. More importantly\, it is an attempt to evoke a more balanced debate on this highly concerning issue. Moving-Out and Living-in is a part of the research project – NEW DEMAND FOR PEOPLE’S HOUSING IN CHINA – conducted in Shenzhen and Shanghai\, China in 2009 and 2010.” \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

DESCRIPTION:The India China Institute\, and History at the New School for Social Research and Eugene Lang College are very please to present: \n\n\n\nThe Inaugural Carol Breckenridge Annual Memorial Lecture in South Asian History. \n\n\n\nThe Rise\, Transformation\, and Fall of Liberalism in India: 1800-1950 \n\n\n\nDelivered by Christopher Bayly \n\n\n\nChristopher Bayly is a Vere Harmsworth Professor of Imperial and Naval History and part of the Faculty of History at the University of Cambridge. As a historian and scholar of global cultures\, Carol Breckenridge (1942-2009) 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 of 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 departments and 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\, even while\, as in more recent times\, she was courageously coping with physical challenges of her own. Mentor\, scholar\, and friend\, she will be sadly missed.

SUMMARY:The Country is Yours: Contemporary Nepali Literature
DESCRIPTION:The India China Institute invites you to a reading of selections from The Country is Yours: Contemporary Nepali Literature by Manjushree Thapa. Friday\, 4 September\, 2009 6:30-8:00PM Wollman Hall 65 W 11th Street The New School \n\n\n\nThe Country is Yours: Contemporary Nepali Literature Translated and introduced by Manjushree Thapa \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nModern Nepali literature started in the 1930s. As a response to state censorship\, one group of high modernists sought to locate human freedom in the play of language. Another group wrote more directly in favor of social justice. From these pioneers emerged the ‘democrats’ and the ‘progressives’\, the distinctions between who have gradually blurred since the re-establishment of democracy in 1990. The Country Is Yours is a collection of contemporary Nepali literature. Organized in four sections- ‘The Perplexity of Living’\, ‘The Right to Desire’\, ‘The Imminent Liberation’ and ‘Visions’- the stories and poems of the 49 writers included here offer a view onto the upheavals of Nepali Society\, Politics and Identity leading up to and after 1990. They also speak of the universal joys and sorrows of the human condition. Translated and introduced by Manjushree Thapa\, this volume sensitively captures the spirit of a society at the threshold of transformation. Manjushree Thapa is a writer from Nepal\, the author of many well-received books of fiction and nonfiction. Her essays and opinions have appeared widely in the Nepali and international media\, including in the New York Times. Her fiction titles are Tilled Earth\, a collection of short stories about Nepalis and the Nepali diaspora; The Tutor of History\, a novel set in a small highway town in Nepal during a general election; and the upcoming Seasons of Flight\, a novel about a Nepali woman who wins the US government’s diversity visa lottery and lands in Los Angeles. Her non-fiction titles are Forget Kathmandu\, a personal account of Nepal’s political upheavals\, with reportage on the Maoist insurgency; Mustang Bhot in Fragments\, a travelogue to villages on the Nepal-Tibet border; and the upcoming A Boy from Siklis\, a biography of the groundbreaking Nepali environmentalist Chandra Gurung. Her oeuvre includes several titles of literary translations\, including Secret Places: New Writing from Nepal\, published by the University of Hawai’i Press\, which she co-edited.”

SUMMARY:Emerging Exchanges: New Architectures of India
DESCRIPTION:India’s architectural and urban landscape is being remade in unexpected and exuberant ways at this defining moment in its history. New economic growth\, proliferation of media technologies\, transnational modes of production\, as well as new state and social dynamics are presenting challenges to the entrenched traditions and extraordinary diversity of India. Modern architecture in India\, represented by the seminal practices of Balkrishna Doshi\, Charles Correa\, Raj Rewal and others have long been on a world stage\, however the present moment is marked by new ideological and ideational shifts away from early modernist positions. The Delhi/Ahmedabad axis has moved east and south to Mumbai and Bangalore\, which now includes a new generation of architects\, both Indian and international\, who are involved in a diverse range of practices and productions that are re-imagining entrenched histories of both modernities and traditions. Centrifugal and centripetal dynamics characterizes contemporary practices where many architects look to balance global and transnational imperatives as well as more situated approaches to building. The circulation of these inward and outward movements has resulted in both the glittering towers that reproduce the Special Economic Zones of Shanghai or Dubai as an enclave in a landscape of contested territories and economic disparities. At the same time\, some architects are engaged in emplaced material practices related to landscape\, siting\, local building fabrication\, and programming\, which has led to reconsidering new regionalisms and the informal sector.The Architectural League of New York\, the India China Institute and Parsons The New School for Design plan a two-day conference to probe these material economies and territorial intersections in Indian architecture today. These circuits and realignments will be examined by keynote speakers\, project presentations and interdisciplinary panels in order to present a body of emerging architectural practices\, while unraveling the forces of the larger cultural and social dynamics that these projects generate\, concentrate and disperse. \n\n\n\nDownload Full Conference Agenda
