SUMMARY:India's Water Relations with Her Neighbors
DESCRIPTION:A presentation by Professor Ramaswamy R. Iyer\, India’s Centre for Policy Research with discussant Lopamudra Banerjee\, Assistant Professor of Economics\, The New School. \n\n\n\nLimited seating on a first come basis. \n\n\n\nThe Himalayas feeds nine of the largest rivers in the region on which more than 1.5 billion people depend upon downstream. Over the years these water systems have also been one of the more sensitive political subjects in the region. Today there is a bidding war for controlling these water ways for various reasons including large hydro power plants and India is actively negotiating new as well as old treaties with its neighbors. \n\n\n\nProfessor Ramaswamy R. Iyer is currently a member of the High Level Expert Panel on Water and Disaster\, an adjunct to the UN Secretary General’s Advisory Board on Water and Sanitation. He was formerly the Secretary of Water Resources in the Government of India. After his retirement from the Government\, he was Research Professor at the Centre for Policy Research (CPR) \, New Delhi\, where he worked on water-related issues\, and in particular on cooperation on river waters by India\, Nepal and Bangladesh. He continues with CPR in an honorary capacity. Professor Iyer will discuss India’s inter-country water relations with Pakistan\, Nepal\, Bhutan and Bangladesh. He will address both transboundary river water systems as well as looking beyond river waters\, governments and big projects to outline other possibilities of cooperation between India and these countries.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Still Life
DESCRIPTION:Grand Prize winner at the 2006 Venice Film Festival! In “Still Life” the blood and the sweat run directly into the Yangtze River\, where they mingle with more than a few tears. The movie takes place amid the clatter and misery of the Three Gorges Dam\, which cuts across the Yangtze in central China. The largest dam in the world\, Three Gorges is a site of great cultural and political strife because of both environmental and humanitarian concerns. This may sound like a prescription for social cinema\, but director Jia Zhang-ke’s interest lies in visual ideas and human behavior\, not agendas. \n\n\n\nKristine Harris (PhD\, Columbia University) is Associate Professor of Chinese History and Director of the Asian Studies Program at the State University of New York. In Spring 2007 she was Visiting Associate Professor in Cinema and Media Studies at the University of Chicago. She has also taught at the New School for Social Research. Her research explores the social and political facets of film culture in China from the 1890’s to the present\, with emphasis on the pre-1949 period. Her publications include The Metropolis in the Cinematic Imagination of Republican China and the City Symphony Film\,” In Dushi wenhua zhong de xiandai zhongguo 都市文化中的现代中国 [Popular Culture of the Modern Metropolis] (Shanghai: East China Normal University Press\, 2007) and “The Goddess: Fallen Woman of Shanghai\,” in Chinese Films in Focus (BFI 2003\, 2008). “
