15TH C ART IN THE NETHERLANDS

This course, often taught under the rubrics of “Early Netherlandish Painting” or even “Northern Renaissance Painting” might also be described as “Art in the Age of Van Eyck” or “Painting from Van Eyck to Bosch”.   It will begin with manuscripts, and deal with the contribution of great sculptors like Sluter as well.    The claim implicit in the title is that the techniques pioneered and perfected by the Van Eycks affected all the other arts too –  even though the most original and compelling achievements of the century are probably those of painting, which will form the chief focus of this class.  Attention will also be paid to the social and historical contexts of the main works discussed.    Several museum visits will be included.

FINANCIAL STABILITY MONITORING

FINANICAL STABILITY MONITORING

This course will cover the emergence of systematic financial stability monitoring and evaluation.  It will begin with definitions of financial stability and conceptual frameworks for assessing threats to financial stability and their potential transmission to the real economy.  A major focus will be on key signatures of financial instability and measures that capture these signatures and signal changes in the level of systemic risk.  Through case studies, class participation and two assignments, students will interpret these measures, develop questions for further investigation and assess the nature and extent of systemic risk.   Students will be asked to write two policy memoranda:  the first proposing and justifying a small set of financial stability indicators to monitor financial stability and the second assessing the risk of financial instability in a few sets of such indicators.  An emphasis in both is developing timely and persuasive analysis that prompts policymakers to consider the need for action to preserve financial stability.

MACROPRUDENTIAL REGULATION

This course will focus on understanding the issues and challenges of implementing macroprudential regulations and policies in emerging markets. After revising the overall goals and types of instruments included in the macroprudential approach, the course will address topics that are particularly relevant for emerging market economies. Key questions to be addressed include: What type of macroprudential policies are most appropriate for emerging markets? Should Basel III recommendations on banks’ capital requirements be equally implemented in advanced and emerging market economies? What type of regulatory requirements on liquidity suit the needs of emerging financial markets the best? Should the participation of systemically important global banks in emerging markets be a concern for emerging market regulators? And, how can macroprudential policies complement the goals of monetary policy?

NEW DIRECTION IN BRIT IMP HIST

New Directions in British Impe

This course examines some recent trends in the vibrant field of British imperial history. We look at three themes in particular: (1) the relationship between internationalism and the "empire project," including efforts at cross-colony and intra-imperial collaboration, imperial federation, bloc formation and anti-imperial mobilization; (2) environmental and economic transformations and the uses of "expertise"; (3) the impact of empire on social and cultural practices and intimate relations both in the colonial sphere and in Britain.

RACE POLICY & AMERICAN POLITICS

The changing definitions of race in America have been shaped by political institutions for centuries. Now, as since the founding of this nation, the U.S. (and societies abroad) are marked by racial inequality. Because of this persistent reality, politics and race continue to be intertwined. This course explores the various ways in which race and politics intersect (and possibly collide). We will observe how racial inequality - and the efforts to overcome it- affect various facets of American local, state, and national politics. Often, New York City will be the launching point for broader discussions and analyses pertaining to relationships between Blacks, whites, Latinos, and Asians. We will also pay particular attention to the causes of contemporary racial mobilization and to its consequences. We will explore the origins of race as an organizing concept before moving into a discussion of contemporary racial politics and policy. Using themes such as inequality and governance, we will attempt to further discern the institutions which support and perpetuate practices such as disenfranchisement, gentrification, tiered civil rights and liberties, and possibilities for economic and special mobility. We will take up several topics that have engaged students of politics and scholars of policy for the past few decades and examine their relationship to race. These include but are not limited to education, immigration, transportation, housing, health, elections, social movements, poverty and homelessness, political representation, justice and inequality. We will also dissect these topics in relation to party politics and elections, group consciousness, group conflict and prejudice, political representation, and political unity - and often disunity - among dominant and non-dominant groups. As we do so, we will explore changes as well as continuities in the intersection of race and politics.

POLITICS OF AUTOCRACY

Prerequisites: the instructor's permission.
The formal and informal procedures that determine access to high political office vary greatly across countries and over time. Scholars of comparative politics have tended to study political regimes by explaining why some countries are democratic and others are not. In addition to surveying the large literature on democratization this seminar explores political regimes in a more general way. This course is intended for PhD students preparing for their qualifying exams enrollment is limited and doctoral students will be given priority. The readings assigned address the following questions: Why are some regimes democratic while others are not? Why do some leaders create public legitimating ideologies instead of relying primarily on force or cooptation? Why do some nonâ€democratic political leaders govern through institutions while others rely on networks of individuals who are personally beholden to them? Why are some ruling elites in nonâ€democratic regimes broader than others? What role do elections that are unlikely to change the identity of the head of state play in nonâ€democratic regimes?
