SUMMARY:Poverty\, Inequality\, and Social Policy in China: Polarization or Harmony? w/ Qin Gao
DESCRIPTION:Poverty\, Inequality\, and Social Policy in China: Polarization or Harmony?\n\n\n\n\n\nPublic talk by Qin Gao\nAssociate Professor at Fordham University’s Graduate School of Social Service\nVisiting Scholar at The India China Institute\n \n\nMonday\, March 17th 5pm – 6:30pm\nTheresa Lang Center\, 55 W. 13th St.\, 2nd Fl.\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBio: Qin Gao is an Associate Professor at Fordham University Graduate School of Social Service\, a Research Associate at Columbia University Population Center\, and currently a Visiting Scholar at the India China Institute at the New School University. Dr. Gao’s research examines poverty\, income inequality\, social welfare policies\, and family economic and subjective well-being in China and cross-nationally.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTalk Synopsis: China has had the world’s greatest poverty reduction during the past 30 years\, yet alongside this remarkable achievement are rapidly growing income inequality and many emerging welfare needs that threat its sustained development and political stability. Is China truly close to eliminating poverty? How unequal is the Chinese society? How have social policies in China evolving and to what extent are they addressing citizens’ welfare needs? When both market and social policy forces are considered\, is China more polarized or harmonized? In this talk\, Dr. Gao will examine these questions building on her extensive research on these topics using both empirical data and critical analysis. We anticipate a stimulating\, interdisciplinary discussion among economists\, political scientists\, sociologists\, anthropologists\, social policy scholars\, and anyone who is interested in China studies or cross-national comparisons.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nModerator: Mark Frazier\, Co-Academic Director\, India China Institute\n\n\n\nDiscussant: Dr. Carl Riskin\, Distinguished Professor of Economics\, CUNY Queens College\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:“The Desert Eats Us” film screening w/ Kesang Tseten
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, March 19th 5-6:30pm\n\n\n\nA Screening of “The Desert Eats Us”\n\n\n\n\n(New Location) 66 W. 12th St.\, 4th Fl.\, Room 404\n\n\n\n\nPresented by Kesang Tseten\, award-winning filmmaker and writer from Nepal\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe earnings of Nepali labour sustain one out of every three households of Nepal’s 28 million; remittances prop up the country\, but at a high cost. The film provides a rare glimpse of the migrant workers’ experience in Qatar\, site of the 2022 World Cup\, where Nepalis outnumber natives several times over. While poverty compels them  to go\, it doesn’t justify their treatment. The struggle to endure long working hours\, the stultifying heat\, the burden of loans and high expectations back home is the lot of the migrant\, confronted by overwhelming upheaval and fractures. \n\n\n\nDiscussants:  – Adriana Young\, ICI Fellow  – Luna Ranjit\, Executive Director of Adhikaar \n\n\n\nSponsored by the India China Institute (ICI) at The New School\, Adhikaar\, and the Zolberg Center on Global Migration (formerly the International Center for Migration\, Ethnicity\, and Citizenship). \n\n\n\nThis event is free\, but seating is limited and reservations are required by emailing your name and confirmation of attendance to indiachina@newschool.edu \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Desert Eats Us from ShunyataFilms on Vimeo.

SUMMARY:Sacred Geography: Tibet and Himalaya Photographs Exhibit w/ David Zurick
DESCRIPTION:Sacred Geography: Tibet and Himalaya Photographs\n\n\n\nPhotographed by David ZurickSupported by Eugene Lang College and the Rubin Foundation \n\n\n\nMonday\, Mar. 31st to Wednesday\, Apr. 16th65 W. 11th St.\, 3rd Fl.\, Skybridge \n\n\n\nDavid Zurick’s Sacred Geography exhibition draws from his decades of experience as a geographer\, photographer\, and explorer of the Himalaya\, with twenty large black and white photographs of divine places undergoing change. The images featured in this exhibition are drawn from his new book Land of Pure Vision\, and cover the full geographical reach of Tibet and the Himalaya.  It features many iconic natural places\, such as the Source of the Ganges and sacred Mount Kailash\, as well as numerous cultural sites including pilgrimage routes and famed sacred architectures.  A visual evocation of holy places\, the Sacred Geography exhibition portrays a world of mystery\, magic\, and beauty\, where the human spirit is in synchronicity with natural forces while it also addresses the inevitability of landscape change. Modern intrusions threaten the visual character of some sacred sites\, but such transformations do not necessarily imperil their cultural role\, suggesting that change and dissolution—hallmarks of local religious belief—may apply equally to the human consciousness and to the landscape. \n\n\n\nBio: David Zurick left home in 1975 to journey on the Overland Trail from Europe to Asia and hasn’t looked back. He completed his PhD in Geography at the University of Hawaii and East-West Center\, Honolulu\, and has written extensively about Asia and the Pacific\, with a special focus on the Himalaya region. His writing and photography have won numerous awards\, including the National Outdoor Book Award in 2006 for Illustrated Atlas of the Himalaya and the “Mt Everest Award” in 2009 for his Himalaya studies. The subject of much of his writing and photography is the contemporary cultural landscape.
