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.

DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a talk by Jane Sherron De Hart\, professor emerita of history at the University of California\, Santa Barbara\, on her new biography\, Ruth Bader Ginsburg: A Life. It is the first full life—private\, public\, legal\, philosophical—of the 107th Supreme Court Justice\, one of the deepest and most profoundly transformative legal minds of our time. This book\, fifteen years in the making\, was written with the cooperation of Justice Ginsburg herself and based on many interviews with the justice\, her husband\, her children\, her friends\, and her associates. De Hart’s book on the Equal Rights Amendment (Sex\, Gender\, and the Politics of Sex: A State and a Nation \, co-written with Donald G. Matthews) won the American Political Science Association’s Victoria Schuck Award for the best book on women and politics. \nProfessor Laura Kalman\, Distinguished Professor of History at UCSB\, noted legal historian\, and author most recently of The Long Reach of the Sixties: LBJ\, Nixon and the Making of the Contemporary Supreme Court (2017)\, will present a comment on de Hart’s book and its significance. Kalman’s biography of Lyndon Johnson’s friend\, Abe Fortas\, told the story of another famous justice of the US Supreme Court\, Abe Fortas. This book won the LittletonGriswold Prize awarded by the American Historical Association for the most distinguished book on US law and society. \nThis event will take place in UCSB’s Buchanan Hall\, Room 1910\, on Jan. 26\, 2019 at 2:30 pm.
