Virginia Woolf

This course (an advanced graduate-level version of a course that I have been teaching for many years to undergraduates) will focus on six novels and one non-fictional book by Virginia Woolf. It will explore multiple questions that are essential to literary study, e.g.: What does it mean to study a single author’s work in chronological sequence, finding both consistency and change? How does an author’s work change over the course of her career in response to larger historical and cultural changes? How does an author decide the course of her career in response to critical responses at the time? In addition, thecourse will also focus in detail on the inner logic and coherence of each of the books on the syllabus.

Ethnographies at the End of the World

What can we learn from anthropological and ethnographic research in and about a damaged world, a world confronted by the violence and effects of war, climate change, transnational migration, post-industrial abandonment, and the lives and afterlives of colonialism and slavery? What are the ethnographic debates that address the catastrophes produced by capitalism and the lifeforms that emerge out of its ruins? What types of anthropological critique emerge in times enunciated as ‘the end of the world’? And what comes after this end? Ethnographies at the End of the World addresses these questions by paying close attention to some of the most relevant debates in contemporary anthropological theory and anthropological critique. These debates include, among others, discussions on violence and trauma, the politics of life and death, the work of memory and oblivion, and the material entanglements between human and non-human forms of existence. The aim of this seminar is to generate a discussion around the multiple implications of these theoretical arrangements and how anthropologists deploy them in their ethnographic understandings of the world we live in. In doing so, this course provides students with a fundamental understanding and conceptual knowledge about how anthropologists use and produce theory, and how this theoretical production is mobilized as a social critique. This course is reading intensive and operates in the form of a seminar. It is intended, primarily, for MA students in the department of anthropology and graduate students in other departments.

Politics & Policy of Urban Sustainabilit

Politics & Policy-Urban Sustai

This is a course for thoughtful people who wish to influence actual policy outcomes related to sustainability challenges in major cities. Its objective is not to provide a primer on urban sustainability solutions; this is readily available from textbooks and will change by the time you are in a position to act. Rather, the course’s objective is to prepare you for the kind of challenges that will face you as a policy practitioner in the field of urban sustainability. Cities are increasingly recognized as a key level of government for environmental and sustainability policy. As at all levels, politics and policy are intensely intertwined, and perhaps more so at the local level because the decisions involved often affect constituents directly and intimately --in their neighborhoods, in their homes, in their commutes. This reading-heavy colloquium explores the politics and the policy of urban sustainability from the perspective of someone who wishes to effect change. It culminates in a team project in which students act as a sustainability policy team in a mayoral (or equivalent) office in one of the world’s major cities. The course considers key components of the city itself, with the objective of understanding what shapes the city and its impact on the environment. It mainly uses case studies from the twentieth-century United States, paired with international readings to allow a comparison with other experiences. The focus on deep case studies allows the consideration of the situations, constraints, and political dynamics of specific situations. It is intended to provide students with the ability to recognize patterns in urban political and policy dynamics related to sustainability. These are paired with an overview of leading solutions and how the professor believes practitioners should evaluate them for their own cities. The course also prominently features in-class presentations and discussions of the students’ main project: a team-based memo making a specific recommendation to solve a problem in a specific major world city, which is presented twice, once for a diagnosis of the problem in a given city and a second time with a policy recommendation. This project is the major portion of the overall grade for the class, and is used to allow the students to wrestle with the challenge of turning ideas from past and present into successful urban sustainability policies that can get implemented in a political and institutional world. In order to cover issues in depth, this course is not exhaustive;

Topics in Organizational Economics

This course introduces the students to the field of Organizational Economics. We combine theoretical and empirical methods to study the nature, design, and performance of organizations. Organizations, such as firms, bureaucracies, and political parties, live in a second-best world, where inefficiencies are inevitable. Our goal is to understand and measure these inefficiencies, study their causes and how to minimize them. This course is divided in two parts of equal length. The first part introduces a few of the main theoretical models and findings from the organizational-economics literature. The second part focuses on how to bring the models to the data. By design, the course is intended for a broad set of students: those who are theoretically inclined, those who are empirically inclined, and those who are both. Many of the tools and skills that are developed in this course will be useful not only within organizational economics but, more broadly, to other fields such as industrial organization, political economy, development economics. Our ultimate goal is to accelerate the students' transition toward conducting their own independent research.

Cultures of Reading Early Modern Europe

Cultures of Rding Erly Mo

This weekly seminar course offers an introduction to the cultural history of reading in early modern Europe. While case studies and readings are drawn from various European traditions, the case of the early modern Low Countries will be a recurrent focus, as this course is organized as part of the Queen Wilhemina Visiting Professorship of Dutch Studies.

Reading was an essential part of early modern culture, but also a highly flexible, instable form of communication. It could be done in many different ways, depending on a host of historical, social, and religious contexts. In the past three decades the ‘History of Reading’ has become a vibrant scholarly field, exploring historical theories, debates and practices. Historians of different backgrounds have developed challenging new approaches, highlighting a diversity of reading styles and at least as great a variety of research opportunities. New digital resources have vastly increased our access to relevant evidence.

During the seminars we will discuss and analyze primary and secondary sources from a variety of different historical and disciplinary perspectives, including classical and early modern humanist writings, as well as recent scholarship by social, cultural, intellectual, and book historians. The program includes two working visits to the Rare Book and Manuscript Library in Butler Library. All readings will be available in English.

Macroeconomics for International and Pub

Prerequisite: SIPA U6300. This course continues the one-year sequence initiated with SIPA U6300 and focuses on macroeconomics. The goal of this course is to provide you with the analytical framework to examine and interpret observed economic events in the global economy. We will first familiarize ourselves with the measurement of the macroeconomic variables used to evaluate nations' well-being. Next, we will build from microeconomic principles to clarify the causal links between macroeconomic aggregates. The subject matter will always refer to concrete situations with a particular focus on the causes and effects of the current global financial crisis. The controversial nature of macroeconomic policies will be central. Note: This course is not eligible to fulfill the core economics requirement for students in the IFEP concentration or DAQA specialization.

ART,AESTHETICS&THE POLITICAL

ARTAESTHETICS&THE POLITICAL

Cross-disciplinary in inspiration, this seminar engages work in anthropology, art criticism, literary studies, aesthetics, and philosophy to think about the political possibilities of art and the aesthetic dimensions of the political. Focusing most sharply (but not exclusively) on what is variously called socially engaged art, relational art, or participatory art, the seminar will consider recent art practices, performances, texts, and objects across a diverse range of genres and national-cultural locations. Art thinkers studied will include Kant, Benjamin, Adorno, Lyotard, Ranciere, Kitagawa, García-Canclini, Groys, Bishop, Bourriard, and beyond.
