SUMMARY:Who Cares? Care Arrangements and Sanitation for the Poor in India\, Compared With Europe and China
DESCRIPTION:This talk will examine the question: why do Indian middle-class citizens seem to have no compelling interest improving sanitation for the poor\, despite the fact that their own health is affected due to the close proximity of the poor? By comparing the current conditions of poverty in India and China\, presenter Peter van der Veer will examine cultural theories of attitudes towards ‘the dirty outside world’ and will argue that these theories ignore the importance of caste\, and especially\, untouchability. The New School’s Sanjay Ruparelia will serve as a discussant. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter van der Veer is Director at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity in Göttingen and Distinguished University Professor at Utrecht University. He is the author of Gods on Earth (LSE Mongraphs\, 1988)\, Religious Nationalism (University of California Press 1994)\, Imperial Encounters (Princeton University Press 2001)\, The Modern Spirit of Asia (Princeton University Press 2014). He is the editor of the new journal\, Cultural Diversity in China and is a senior advisor at the India China Institute. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSanjay Ruparelia is an assistant professor of Politics at The New School for Social Research and a former Fellow at the India China Institute. His areas of research and teaching span democratic theory\, comparative politics and political economy of development\, primarily in South Asian studies. He is the author of Divided We Govern: The Paradoxes of Power in Contemporary Indian Democracy (Columbia University Press\, 2013) and is the coeditor of Understanding India’s New Political Economy: A Great Transformation? (Routledge\, 2011). \n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\nEvent registration for Who Cares? Care Arrangements and Sanitation for the Poor in India\, Compared With Europe and China powered by Eventbrite

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:Handshake 302: Vernacular Geographies of Shenzhen\, China
DESCRIPTION:In Shenzhen\, China\, the term “urban village” refers to a vernacular urban typology that has emerged out of village settlements that no longer\, or only partially\, exist\, and continue to expand today. In these dense\, urbanized spaces\, the preservation of village terminology allows us to explore a vernacular geography of “modernized”\, “urbanized”\, and “everyday” spaces within a larger discourse about China’s urban growth and Shenzhen’s history\, its development trajectories\, and governmental interventions in its built environment. This talk focuses on my experience co-curating an experimental art and ethnographic space called the “Handshake 302 Village Hack Residency” that engages the living history of the urban village of Baishizhou and Shenzhen’s history more generally. Handshake 302 exploits the semiotic discrepancies between art space programs and low cost housing to provide an accessible sociology of an urban village. The talk explores how the definition\, rezoning\, and rebuilding of these neighborhoods simultaneously evaluates the history of urban modernity (and the ordinary people who made it) and posits the city’s future (and the people who are welcome there). \n\n\n\nMary Ann O’Donnell is an anthropologist\, urban ethnographer\, artist\, and educator living in Shenzhen\, China\, where she is the director of CZC Special Forces\,  a citizen group that aims to bring Shenzhen’s urbanized villages into public discussions about urban planning and renewal projects. She is also an editor at Architectural Worlds. \n\n\n\n\nOnline event registration for Handshake 302: Vernacular Geographies of Shenzhen\, China powered by Eventbrite
