SUMMARY:Criminalizing Immigrant Families:  Race\, Gender\, and Family Separations at the U.S.-Mexico Border
DESCRIPTION:Race and gender have shaped the law\, public policy\, and the emotional and physical experiences of migration throughout history.  At the present moment\, however\, shifting patterns of migration and the current administration’s use of family separation as a deterrent has led to an intense struggle to define migration\, the migrant\, and the family. This conference explores these struggles on both sides of the border from historical and contemporary perspectives.  \n  \n  \n9:30: Welcome Addresses \nCharles Hale (Dean of Social Sciences\, UCSB) \nErika Rappaport (Chair of the Department of History\, UCSB) \nVeronica Castillo-Muñoz (History\, UCSB) \n10:00-12:15: “Border Families: Violence and Separations” \nChair: Veronica Castillo-Muñoz (History\, UCSB) \nLeisy Abrego (UCLA\, Chicana/o Studies) \nCentral Americans as Criminals and Crisis: \nThe Legal Violence of Family Separations at the US-Mexico Border \nNatalia Molina (Professor of American Studies & Ethnicity\, University of Southern California) \nThe Birth of the “Anchor Baby”: The Decoupling of Race and Citizenship for Mexican Americans \nVeronica Montes  (Bryn Mawr College\, Department of Sociology) \nStranded in Tijuana: The Central American Caravan at the Closed Gate of the US-Mexico Border \nRobert Irwin (UC Davis\, Spanish) \nCriminality\, Paternity\, Feelings: Testimonial Narratives from the Streets of Tijuana \n12:15 – 2:00: Lunch and Keynote Talk \nImmigration Research at UCSB: Confronting Local Concerns\, Federal Policies and Global Problems \nEdward Telles\, UCSB Department of Sociology \n2:15-3:45: “Scholarship as Resistance”  \nChair: Ralph Armbruster-Sandoval (UCSB\, Chicana and Chicano Studies) \nAna Y.

SUMMARY:Conference: Realisms in East Asian Performing Arts
DESCRIPTION:Realisms in East Asian Performing Arts proposes new considerations of realism on stage. Since its association with 19th-century innovations in European and American drama\, theatrical realism has largely remained limited to Euro-American definitions. We explore conventions of realism in culturally-specific locations and times across East Asia\, articulating alternative histories of realism that extend from the premodern into the present. Through our individual inquiries\, we aim to broaden the term’s analytic power and shed collective light on the diversity and versatility of this important representational mode. The conference will end with a play reading performed by LAUNCH PAD\, UCSB. \nView the complete schedule and conference information at www.realismseastasia.com. You can download the informational flyer here: Realisms in East Asian Performing Arts.

SUMMARY:Interdisciplinary Conference on "Fallout: Chernobyl and the Ecology of Disaster"
DESCRIPTION:The interdisciplinary virtual conference Fallout: Chernobyl and the Ecology of Disaster will take place on Friday\, April 30\, 2021 at 9:00am-4:00pm (Pacific Time\, US & Canada)\, when an international slate of speakers representing a variety of disciplines will share their insights on the 35th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster. \n \nThe day before\, an associated Carsey-Wolf Center virtual discussion of the award-winning documentary “The Babushkas of Chernobyl\,” with Director Holly Morris\, will take place on Thursday\, April 29\, 2021 at 4:00pm (Pacific Time\, US & Canada)\, before which registered participants can pre-screen the film. Information on registering for both events and the conference website are below:\n \nConference Website\n \nRegister for the Virtual Conference at 9am-4pm Pacific Time (US & Canada) on Friday\, April 30\, 2021\n \nRegister for the Carsey-Wolf Center Virtual Discussion at 4pm Pacific Time (US & Canada) on Thursday\, April\, 29\, 2021\n \nThirty-five years after the 1986 nuclear accident at Chernobyl\, the interdisciplinary virtual conference Fallout: Chernobyl and the Ecology of Disaster considers its afterlife and reverberations in various disciplines\, including culture and the arts. Situated at a watershed moment during the Cold War\, Chernobyl has spawned an unprecedented quantity of global responses from scientists\, writers\, filmmakers\, and artists\, and it has become a key moment for the global environmental movement. This conference views the accident and its aftermath in the context of broader global ecologies of disaster and considers how catastrophe is coded and understood — or fails to be understood — through the prism of science\, art\, literature\, and film. How do all these disciplines and discourses confront the disaster\, and where do they converge to produce the fiction\, or the truth\, of what we call “Chernobyl”? The conference brings together scholars and experts in Comparative Literature\, History\, Anthropology\, Environmental Studies\, Nuclear Engineering\, Medicine\, Art\, Film\, and Germanic and Slavic Studies.\n \nSponsored by the Division of Arts and Letters and the T. A. Barron Environmental Fund. Event partners include the Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies\, the\, and the Carsey-Wolf Center. Other sponsors include the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, Department of Global Studies\, Comparative Literature Program\, Environmental Studies\, Cold War Studies\, College of Creative Studies\, and History Department. (Rescheduled from April 2020 when it was postponed due to COVID-19.)

SUMMARY:Conference May 20-21: "Work\, Capitalism\, and Democracy: Past\, Present\, and Future"
DESCRIPTION:The Center for the Study of Work\, Labor and Democracy hosts a conference\, May 20 and 21\, 2022 entitled: “Work\, Capitalism\, and Democracy: Past\, Present\, and Future.” \nIt will be held in the McCune Room\, HSSB 6020. Many former students and contemporary colleagues of Nelson Lichtenstein will deliver papers on a wide variety of topics bearing on the conference theme. \nWork\, capitalism\, and democracy. Historians have spent decades considering their interwoven connections and how each has shaped and animated American politics\, economy\, and society. This conference interrogates the changing shape of historical work on these themes since the early 1980s\, when Center director Nelson Lichtenstein’s first book reshaped how a new generation of scholars thought about the struggle between workers\, capitalists\, and the state apparatus during World War II. Since the publication of Labor’s War at Home: The CIO in World War II\, labor history has been transformed from an exciting but discrete subject that probed working-class mentalities to an ever expanding interpretative approach than now encompasses the study of race\, gender\, capitalism\, social thought\, legal history and theory\, government social policy\, and partisan politics. Lichtenstein’s own work has tracked this scholarly advance: probing at various times and venues the social ecology of wildcat strikes\, the meaning of rights at work and in society\, the theory and practice of corporatism\, the rise and demise of the giant corporation\, the structures governing global supply chains\, and the promise and failure of liberal politics in 20th century America. Those making presentations and other interventions at the Work\, Capitalism\, and Democracy: Past\, Present\, and Future conference will offer fresh perspectives on these and many other themes taken from their own research and that of the new generation of historians of which they are such a vital part.   \nFunding for this conference has come from UCSB’s graduate division\, history department\, Hull Chair of Feminist Studies\, College of Letters & Science\, Division of Humanities and Fine Arts\, and Center for the Study of Work\, Labor\, and Democracy. \nFULL SCHEDULE HERE.  \n
