SUMMARY:Steve Zipperstein\, "The Impeachment Wars: What Lies Ahead"
DESCRIPTION:The Trump impeachment saga has gained startling momentum in recent days. As the proceedings accelerate\, fascinating legal and policy questions arise. Can the president pardon people who have committed crimes at his behest? Can he pardon himself? Does impeachment require proof of a federal crime? Is the Senate required to hold an actual trial? Can nonfederal legal authorities—like the New York State Attorney General or the Manhattan District Attorney—bring criminal charges against the president while he remains in office? Steve Zipperstein explores these and other issues as he contemplates legal and political prospects in the coming weeks and months.   \nSteve Zipperstein is the former Chief Assistant United States Attorney in Los Angeles\, where he served alongside current Congressman Adam Schiff. Zipperstein also served as Counselor to Attorney General Janet Reno\, and as Counselor to then-Assistant Attorney General Robert Mueller. Zipperstein reported directly to former and current Attorney General William Barr for more than a decade during their private sector careers. Following his tenure as a federal prosecutor\, Zipperstein served as the Chief Legal Officer of Verizon Wireless and of BlackBerry. Zipperstein currently teaches in the Global Studies and Public Policy departments at UCLA and is a Senior Fellow at UCLA’s Center for Middle East Development. He has also served as a Visiting Professor of Law at Tel Aviv University. His forthcoming book\, Law and the Arab-Israeli Conflict: The Trials of Palestine\, will be published by Routledge in 2020. \nClick here to download the flyer for this event.

SUMMARY:Barbara Walker\, "Fathers and Sons and the Origins of Cold War ‘Area Studies’ in the United States"
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Walker is Professor of Russian history at the University of Nevada\, Reno. She has published on a broad range of historical topics in the area of Russian and Soviet intellectual life and its economic foundations\, social organization and culture. \nMore recently\, she has branched out to explore the nature of expertise\, specifically “information expertise\,” in her current book project\, A War of Experts: Soviet and American Knowledge Networks in Cold War Competition and Collaboration. Her book will present the intertwined stories of a variety of lively and committed “information experts” in the Cold War United States and Soviet Union\, including early electronic computer designers\, U.S.-Soviet research exchange scholars\, journalists and Soviet dissidents. Information professionals in the area of intelligence make their appearance too. The book focuses on the efforts of these ambitious\, often passionate “experts” to multiply their numbers and to expand the influence of their expertise in this period. To accomplish these goals\, they built on networks and traditions reaching back into the 19th century\, in which lay the origins of the professionalization of expertise in many areas. \nClick here to download the flyer for this event.

SUMMARY:UCSB History Associates present: What Was "Royalty" in Early Modern England
DESCRIPTION:The wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in June 2016 stimulated a new round of interest in and curiosity about the concept of “royalness.” Visitors to the Karpeles Library asked such questions as “will Meghan Markle ever be considered a queen\,” “who gives titles of nobility” (princes\, princesses\, dukes\, earls\, etc.)\, and “how did royals get there?” This talk will compare the powers and position of Queen Elizabeth I\, her Tudor predecessors\, and some of her Stuart successors. Elizabeth II\, the current queen\, has very little political power\, but in medieval and early modern Europe\, monarchs had extensive prerogatives. That said\, their power was by no means as absolute and complete as many people now think. They were believed to rule by “divine right\,” a phrase which is often taken to mean they could do utter anything they wanted to do. Yet in fact\, their powers were in practice limited in a variety of ways that require careful analysis if we are to understand the nature of royalty in a period when monarchical governments controlled all of Europe (except in the Republic of Venice and the Dutch Republic). Our speaker is Sears McGee\, Professor Emeritus of History. He retired in 2018 after 46 years of teaching at UCSB\, including 6 years as department chair. His courses explored the history of Europe (with an emphasis on England) from the High Middle Ages to the French Revolution. His books include a co-authored work\, The West Transformed: a History of Western Civilization (Harcourt\, 2000) and ‘An Industrious Mind’: the Worlds of Sir Simonds D’Ewes (Stanford University Press\, 2015).
