SUMMARY:Talk by Sigrid Schmalzer\, University of Massachusetts\, Amherst: "The Layered Landscapes of Hebei and Guangxi: Mao-era History and the COnstruction of China's Agricultural Heritage"
DESCRIPTION:Chinese scientists\, scholars\, and state officials are actively engaged in a transnational movement to preserve “agricultural heritage.” But what is agricultural heritage and how does it relate to a “people’s history” of agriculture? This talk will focus on two sites where the PRC state is actively seeking to promote and preserve agricultural heritage. Both sites are famed for their spectacular agricultural terraces: one lies in the northern province of Hebei and the other in the southern province of Guangxi. Despite ethnic\, cultural\, and environmental differences\, the two sites share some important historical experiences. In both places\, people identify terracing as a form of survivial for their migrant ancestors in a new land. More recently\, the two sites underwent a powerful\, transformative Mao-era history that matters deeply to local people but is in danger or erasure or cooption today in the ahnds of an eco-authoritarian state. The speaker will explore these two cases to demonstrate the need for a critical historical approach: she will urge scholars to recognize the significance of the Mao era in the construction of both agricultural knowledge and the agricultural heritage paradigm\, while resisting efforts to coopt that history in the service of state power. \nSigrid Schmalzer is Professor of History at the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. Her first book\, The People’s Peking Man: Popular Science and Human Identity in Twentieth-Century China\, was published by the University of Chicago Press in 2008 and won the Sharlin Memorial Award from the Social Science History Association. Her second book\, Red Revolution\, Green Revolution: Scientific Farming in Socialist China (Chicago\, 2016) won the Joseph Levenson Prize form the Association for Asian Studies.

SUMMARY:"Agrarian Quests: The Search for Comunidades and Campesinos in Rural Peru\,”  a lecture by Javier Puente
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nThe history of twentieth-century Peru is the history of the rural countryside\, its governance\, and the making of comunidadesand campesinosas foundational elements of a social\, economic\, and political landscape. Throughout a number of decades\, domestic state powers and transnational capital turned lands and pastures into battlegrounds of ideas about labor\, property\, and modernization at large. In turn\, clashing visions of power placed comunidadesand campesinosat the center of their responses to enduring uncertainties and anxieties on the economic exploitation and sociopolitical control of the country. Hacendados\, engineers\, intellectuals\, corporations\, political parties\, the military\, among others\, contended and disputed the meaning of being a comunidadand a campesino. Ultimately\, a civil war brought the search to a violent end\, revealing the extent\, limitations\, and failures of the rural making of a nation-state. \nAbout  \nJAVIER PUENTE holds a Ph.D. from Georgetown University and currently serves as assistant professor of Andean history at the Instituto de Historia of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. \nThis lecture s presented as part of the LAIS 200 graduate seminar. It is free and open to the campus community. A small reception follows the talk. Students interested in discussing further Dr. Puente’s work after the reception are encouraged to contact the LAIS Program Director at mendez@lais.ucsb.edu to get the reading materials. \n*LAIS thanks the generous co-sponsorship of the Departments of History\, Global Studies\, and the Global Environmental Justice Project to this event. \n

SUMMARY:Film showing: "In the Shadow of the Moon"
DESCRIPTION:2019 marks the 50th anniversary of NASA’s Apollo program. The mission’s crewed flights began in 1968 with the first lunar circumnavigation; on July 20\, 1969 Neil Armstrong became the first human to step foot on another planet. By the end of 1972 Apollo’s funding was cut and NASA’s moon explorations were over. From 1969 to 1972 there were eight crewed missions and 12 astronauts walked on the surface of the moon\, exploring and doing scientific work “for the benefit of all mankind.” This award-winning documentary explores remastered archival footage and the recollections and commentary of almost every astronaut alive in 2007 regarding their participation in the Apollo program. Note the determination and awe that echoes through the memories of these unique Americans.  Learn what they thought about the tumultuous decade of the 1960s and how their accomplishment seemed to bring the world together\, ever so briefly. Hear what they say about humans going back to the moon and beyond\, a feat that is once again on NASA’s radar. The film will be introduced by 2018/2019 Center for Cold War Studies Fellow\, Christina Roberts\, a PhD student in the History of Science program at UCSB. Light refreshments served.In the Shadow of the Moon-flyer
