Two History Department faculty members will speak at this exciting event. \nIn her widely acclaimed book Caste: The Origins of our Discontents\, Isabel Wilkerson complicates the category of race\, as it is commonly understood in the US\, by bringing caste to the fore. She discusses the “caste” historical experience of the US in light of those in Nazi Germany and India. Insofar as the term “caste” was first introduced in India by the Portuguese at a time when the Spanish and Portuguese empires had a global colonial reach\, Wilkerson’s book provides a perfect pretext for the Program in Latin American and Iberian Studies (LAIS) to launch a global conversation. In this roundtable\, UCSB faculty from Black Studies\, History\, and LAIS specialized in the US\, India\, and Latin America discuss their take on caste\, race\, and Isabel Wilkerson. \nSpeakers (UC Santa Barbara)\nUtathya Chattopadhyaya is Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. He specializes in the history of modern South Asia\, British imperialism\, and agrarian commodities in global markets. His essays have appeared in A Cultural History of Western Empires\, the South African Historical Journal\, Historical Reflections\, English Language Notes\, and the edited volume Animalia: An Anti-Imperial Bestiary for our Times. He is currently working on a monograph on cannabis and empire in British India. \nCecilia Méndez is a Peruvian historian specialized in the social and political history of the Andean region. She is the director of the Latin American and Iberian Studies Program at UC Santa Barbara and an Associated Professor in History. Her work calls the attention on the importance of late eighteenth-century\, and nineteenth-century political developments in shaping modern conceptions nationhood\, citizenship\, and “race.” \nTerrance Wooten is an Assistant Professor in Black Studies. He is currently working on his first book manuscript\, “Lurking in the Shadows of Home: Homelessness\, Carcerality\, and the Figure of the Sex Offender\,” which examines how those who have been designated “sex offenders” and are homeless in the Maryland/DC area are managed and regulated through social policies\, sex offender registries\, and urban and architectural design. His scholarly interests are located at the intersections of Black studies\, gender and sexuality studies\, studies of poverty and homelessness\, and carceral studies. \nJoin the Zoom meeting here: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/84061612112.  URL:https://history.ucsb.edu/events/lais-tertulia-race-and-caste-in-latin-america-india-and-the-usa-a-global-conversation/ LOCATION:Zoom\, CA CATEGORIES:Roundtable ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://history.ucsb.edu/wp-content/uploads/LAIS-Tertulia-Feb-2021-Caste.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200522T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200522T133000 DTSTAMP:20260605T050630 CREATED:20200517T052936Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240417T183124Z UID:10002829-1590148800-1590154200@history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:“Coronavirus and Historical Patterns of Epidemics in Latin America" DESCRIPTION:A Zoom Talk by Dr. Marcos Cueto \nWednesday\, May 13\, at 12 pm – 1:30 pm\, via Zoom \nAbstract. Historical studies on epidemics in Latin America have magnified fragilities in public health structures\, revealed the vulnerability of the poor and discovered cases of heroism under adversity. They have also identified an historical trend –revived in the contemporary crisis caused by Covid-19– characterized by a reductionism in the explanation of the social factors that sustain epidemics\, insufficient and contradictory official responses and stigma against marginal groups. This presentation will discuss the main historical patterns of response to epidemics in Latin America\, especially in Brazil\, during the late 20th and early 21st centuries and relate them to the coronavirus pandemic. \nMarcos Cueto is Professor of History of Health at the Casa Oswaldo Cruz\, FIOCRUZ\, in Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil\, and a Researcher in the Instituto de Estudios Peruanos in Lima. He holds a PhD from Columbia University and was a postdoctoral fellow at the Science\, Technology and Society Program at the MIT. His major books include A History of the World Health Organization (2019); Medicine and Public Health in Latin America (2016) (co-authored with S. Palmer)\, which won the 2017 George Rosen Award of the American Association for the History of Medicine; Cold War and Deadly Fevers: Malaria Eradication in Mexico\, 1955-1970 (2007)\, among many others. He has been a visiting professor at Harvard\, the University of Shanghai\, the University College London\, L’Institut de hautes études internationales et du dévelopement in Geneva\, Stanford\, Princeton\, Columbia\, and New York University and was fellow of the Guggenheim\, Mellon\, Tinker\, Ford\, and Rockefeller foundations.  He publishes regularly in English\, Spanish and Portuguese. For more on his work see https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Marcos_Cueto7 \n* Professor Cueto will be joining us from Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil.

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  URL:https://history.ucsb.edu/events/agrarian-quests-the-search-for-comunidades-and-campesinos-in-rural-peru-a-lecture-by-javier-puente/ LOCATION:HSSB 4020\, University of California Santa Barbara\, Santa Barbara\, CA\, 93106\, United States CATEGORIES:Academic Calendar,Public Lecture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://history.ucsb.edu/wp-content/uploads/Javier-Puente-poster-V4-FINAL.jpg GEO:34.4139629;-119.848947 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=HSSB 4020 University of California Santa Barbara Santa Barbara CA 93106 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=University of California Santa Barbara:geo:-119.848947,34.4139629 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
