SUMMARY:"Was the Rise of Islam a Black Swan Event?" Michael Cook\, 2016 R. Stephen Humphreys Distinguished Visiting Scholar
DESCRIPTION:A Black Swan Event is by definition a highly improbable happening with a massive impact. No one questions the impact of rise of Islam\, but just how improbable was it? Two of its central features look very unlikely against the background of earlier history: the appearance among the Arabs of a new\nmonotheistic religion\, and the formation of a powerful state in Arabia. Does that add up to two Black Swans\, or do they cancel out? \nMichael Cook is the Class of 1943 University Professor of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University. He is the author of Commanding Right and Forbidding Wrong in Islamic Thought and A Brief History of the Human Race\, among other books\, and he is also the general editor of The New Cambridge History of Islam. \nSponsored by the Center for Middle East Studies\, R. Stephen Humphreys Distinguished\nLecture Series \nDownload flyer

SUMMARY:Seeking Peace Amid Violence: Professor James F. Brooks to Speak on Awat'ovi Massacre
DESCRIPTION:Modern Americans love thinking that the Hopi people of the Southwest represent the epitome of peacefulness. But in the year 1700\, in the populous village of Awat’ovi\, Hopi slaughtered Hopi by the hundreds in a predawn raid\, showering crushed red pepper\, fire\, and arrows into subterranean kivas while kidnapping the women and children who survived. This massacre is well documented\, but UCSB history and anthropology professor James Brooks wanted to find out why\, and whether the tragic incident resonates in today’s world. \nJames Brooks will speak about Mesa of Sorrows at the Alhecama Theatre (914 Santa Barbara St.) on Wednesday\, May 11\, at 7 p.m. in an event hosted by the S.B. Trust for Historic Preservation and the UCSB History Associates. Free for members; $10 otherwise. \nRead more @ http://www.independent.com/news/2016/may/02/finding-peace-amid-hopi-violence/

SUMMARY:Talk by Neil Maher: Cold War Star Wars: The New Left and the Space Race During the Vietnam War
DESCRIPTION:In the mid-1960s\, NASA began building space technologies for the war in Vietnam. Students from the New Left vigorously protested against the space agency\, which responded in the early 1970s by scrapping several of its military projects and instead developing satellites that could collect useful ecological data on natural resources around the world.  Soon scientists\, engineers\, and politicians from Latin America\, Africa\, and Asia—including even Vietnam—were cooperating with the U.S. government to acquire satellite data about their countries’ natural resources. The Soviets did similarly with their own space technology and developing communist nations. The result was a more subtle\, but still hegemonic\, superpower rivalry \nNeil M. Maher is Associate Professor in the Federated History Department at the New Jersey Institute of Technology and Rutgers University at Newark\, where he teaches environmental history and political history.  He has published widely in academic and has edited a collection of essays by historians\, scientists\, and policy analysts titled New Jersey’s Environments: Past\, Present\, and Future (Rutgers University Press\, 2006). His first monograph\, Nature’s New Deal: The Civilian Conservation Corps and the Roots of the American Environmental Movement (Oxford University Press\, 2008)\, received the Charles A. Weyerhaeuser Book Award for the best monograph in conservation history. He has recently completed his second book\, tentatively titled Ground Control: How Apollo Scrubbed the Age of Aquarius (Harvard University Press\, 2017)\, which will examine how efforts to put humans on the Moon influenced the social and political movements of the “long 1960s.” \nDownload the Event Flyer

SUMMARY:"The Calorie\, Development\, and War in Mandate Palestine\, 1915-1945"
DESCRIPTION:Sherene Seikaly\nEvent Description:\nThis talk explores British economic policy in the Middle East in general and Palestine specifically during WWII. Scholarly depictions have focused on the importance of measuring and realizing economic growth. This analysis looks instead at the construction and provision of basic needs during times of scarcity. It shows how British officials sought to realize economy through new technologies such as the calorie and the emerging science of nutrition. Far from an imperative to rationalize the colonized body\, this effort was born of the exigencies of war. British colonial officials introduced new conceptions of development\, poverty\, health\, and productivity throughout the war. Their failures reveal the politics of basic needs. They also show how paradigms such as colonial development and sciences like nutrition promised the universal but instead enforced and were constituted by exclusion. \nAbout the Speaker:\nSherene Seikaly is Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. She is the editor of the Arab Studies Journal\, co-founder and co-editor of Jadaliyya e-zine\, and an editor of Journal of Palestine Studies. Her book\, Men of Capital: Scarcity and Economy in Mandate Palestine (Stanford University Press\, 2016) explores how Palestinian capitalists and British colonial officials used economy to shape territory\, nationalism\, the home\, and the body. She has published in academic journals such as International Journal of Middle East Studies and Journal of Middle East Women’s Studies and several online venues. \nRSVP:\nThis event is free\, but please download the event flyer\, detach the included RSVP form\, fill it out\, and mail to UCSB History Associates\, Department of History\, UCSB\, 93106-9410 so we can insure that we have enough refreshments on hand. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n. \n

SUMMARY:Film Screening/Talk: "American Umpire"
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Cobbs and James Shelley grant us a sneak preview of their forthcoming PBS documentary film\, “American Umpire\,” based on Prof. Cobbs’s acclaimed history book of the same name. The film recounts America’s post-World War II role as the world’s policemen and explores whether the United States can\, and should\, continue to play that role in the future. After screening the film\, which runs for 56 minutes\, Professor Cobbs and Mr. Shelley\, the film’s director\, will discuss the making of the documentary and engage the audience members in dialogue. \nElizabeth Cobbs is Professor and Melbern G. Glasscock Chair in American History at Texas A & M University. Her first book\, The Rich Neighbor Policy: Kaiser and Rockefeller in Brazil (Yale\, 1992)\, won the Allan Nevins Prize from the Organization of American Historians and the Stuart Bernath Prize from the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations. Professor Cobbs has also authored All You Need is Love: The Peace Corps and the Spirit of the 1960s (Harvard\, 2000)\, along with works of historical fiction. Her most recent historical monograph\, American Umpire (Harvard\, 2013)\, is the inspiration for the featured documentary film. \nJames Shelley is the owner of Shell Studios\, a San Diego-based production company that specializes in award-winning documentaries and commercial films. Having retired from a 35-year career as a global risk management executive\, Shelley is now pursuing a lifelong interest in filmmaking. He is a graduate of Johns Hopkins University and of the University of California\, San Diego’s video production program.
