Japanese Financial Policy & Economy
Japanese Financial Pol & Econ
Prerequisites: SIPA U6401 The objective of this course provides students with deep knowledge on developments of financial policy in Japan and interactions between financial markets and economic development. Financial policy extends from regulation and supervision of the banking sector, to capital markets and international capital flows as well as monetary policy and exchange rate policy. Policy lessons are derived from analyses of the past banking problems and crises. An impact of switching from the fixed exchange rate regime to floating exchange rate regime and subsequent attempts to manage the exchange rate movements will be reviewed with event analyses and case studies. Economic growth rate of Japan was high in the 1950s and 1960s and later declined; how financial market developments contributed to economic growth; how quickly its markets were opened to international trade and finance; why the Japanese economy has suffered stagnation and deflation due to a burst of a financial bubble in the 1990s and 2000s; and what kinds of policy reforms, known as Abenomics, have been implemented since 2013. The description and explanation are based on intermediate microeconomic and macroeconomic analyses and empirical evidences. The role of economic policies—monetary policy, fiscal policy, financial supervision and regulation, industrial policy—will be carefully examined.

CRITICAL ISSUES IN THEATRE MANAGEMENT
CRITICAL ISSUES IN THEA M
The art of negotiation is a critical skill for stage managers to develop. Conflict resolution, communication, and collaboration are all aspects of theater that require negotiation on many levels. This course will explore these concepts and apply them to the real-world atmospheres in which stage managers must navigate these challenges effectively. Contemporary management texts, role-playing, guest speakers, and lectures/class discussion will illuminate the importance of negotiation as a tool that will be required of all stage managers no matter where they choose to work.

Migration and Contemporary Art
This seminar will explore how contemporary art has changed since the twentieth century’s end. In particular, we will focus on how the massive migrations of recent years have shaped artistic expressions and projects. Not only has the theme of migration increasingly emerged as a dominant subject of art, but the varied mobilities of the contemporary world have radically reshaped art’s practices of production, display, and reception. We will study the increasing universality of the conditions of global migration and interdependence and examine this current reality’s relationships to art and curatorial practice. The seminar will inhabit, rethink, and depart from existing perspectives in transnational or diaspora studies to develop empirical and theoretical directions beyond some of the current frameworks, which appear to have stiffened from overuse. In the broadest sense, the seminar will explore the relationship of the visual arts to the forms of subjectivity produced by migration and displacement in recent years. How have experiences of migration and mobility found expression in artistic, curatorial, and critical practices? How do we grasp the new cultural assemblage generated by the conditions of relentless human mobility in the present? What kinds of artists and curators does migration make? How does transnational mobility, and moving from one location to another, hinder or further an artist’s or curator’s career? To what extent have artists and curators become migrant workers in contemporary art’s international labor market?

COMM-BASED PARTICIPATORY RES
Prerequisites: Good Clinical Practices Certificate Exam; also 6727 and 8772 Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) has received growing attention over the past several decades as international, domestic, funding agencies and researchers have renewed a focus on an approach to health that recognizes the importance of social, political and economic systems to health behaviors and outcomes. The importance of this approach is reflected in the recent IOM report that CBPR which indicates that CBPR is one of the eight priority areas for improving the public health. CBPR is not a method but a system of investigation that involves the active collaboration of the potential beneficiaries and recognizes and values the contributions that community-based participatory research can make to new knowledge and to the translation of research findings into public health practice and policy. CBPR as it is often referred is a collaborative approach to research that recognizes the value of equitably involving the intended beneficiaries throughout all phases of program planning, implementation and evaluation.

Gender, Politics and Development: Theory
Gender, Politics & Development
In this course, we approach gender, politics and development in terms of theory, policy and practice. We explore multiple constructions of gender in development discourse; the intersection of gender with other social categories and with dominant economic and political trends; and the ways in which gender norms inform the different approaches of governments, development agencies, civil society organizations, and the private sector. We apply a critical gender lens to a wide range of development sectors and issue areas, including economic development, political participation, education and health, environment and climate change, and conflict and displacement. We also consider current debates and approaches related to gender mainstreaming and gender metrics in development practice. Students engage with the course material through class discussion, exercises and case studies, and the development of a gender-related project proposal.

CONTEMP DEBATES-SOCIOMED SCI
Prerequisites: P8788, Theoretical Foundations of Sociomedical Sciences This course is the second part of a two-semester seminar that essays a selective genealogy of the major theoretical traditions undergirding contemporary practice in the sociomedical sciences. The critical examination of current research projects in the spring- like the historical review in the fall - will be guided by the framing interests and signature emphases of the department: urban environs in transformation, social structures and axes of inequality, disparities in morbidity and morality, agency and identity, social construction and production of health and disease, globalization and marginalization. The overall aim is to familiarize students with the relevant interpretive/analytic traditions, provide a rehearsal stage for testing out particular tools and frameworks in compare and contrast exercises, and build the theoretical foundations that will enable them to critically assess contemporary work in the field. In this second part of the sequence, special emphasis will be given to research by faculty members in the department, as well as by others working in related frameworks. Both theoretical and methodological approaches to the sociomedical sciences will be examined in seeking to develop and overview of contemporary debates in the field. Close reading, class discussion, and reflective writing will be the practical means we employ.

In the theatre, people are your greatest asset (and often the biggest expense in your budget). A good understanding of Human Resources, labor relations and collective bargaining is critical for any successful venture, organization or production. In this course, we will cover theory and law behind these topics and tackle practical application of the concepts in our unique employment environment. We will do simulation work on some of the most common challenges in labor and bargaining, all which will require coordination with your classmates in and out of class. Given the rapid pace of change in these areas, topics below are subject to change.

HUMAN RIGHTS: THEO & PRACTICES
Human Rights have been part of the international landscape for over 70 years. From the creation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights onward we have seen the flourishing of human rights NGOs, advocates, and the promotion of human rights norms. Yet, many countries continue to violate the human rights of its citizens and most people do not enjoy the full protection of their human rights. In today’s world, many policy makers and scholars have begun to question whether human rights have made any difference at all. Yet other scholars argue that human rights have achieved many accomplishments and will continue to thrive. This course is designed to understand when and how human rights can be effective and sustainable. Some of the questions the course explores: how do we know if human rights policies work? How do we evaluate progress in human rights policies? How does one measure progress? Which are the most effective tools to promote human rights?

Visibility: On Histories of Seeing in th
Visibility: Lands of Isla
Attentive looking forms a major part of the art historian’s visual inquiries, and looking at objects is part of our daily activities because it always involves investigations that help us to navigate our way in space. Terms like the “trompe l’oeil”, “eye catcher”, and even “Period Eye” emphasize how the act of looking is strongly linked to other concepts like illusion, mimesis and
Zeitgeist
, all of which play a major role in the construction of art history as a scientific discipline. In fact, as Heinrich Wölfflin more than once argued, the history of art is about histories of modes of seeing. In this seminar we will delve into the specific moment of our attentive looking at art as illustrated through the medieval and early modern writings of scholars and philosophers of the world of Islam as well as by discussing specific artifacts that dictate particular modes of seeing. Transparent materials, which declare upfront the existence of their translucent barriers, the evocation of the sensations of uncertainty, doubt and ambiguity, the elicitation of our feel of being amazed, the power of the double or mirrored image, the forming of the impression of voyeurism, and even the seeing of ghosts and phantoms, all these aspects form our discussions. Students will be asked to read for each meeting relevant publications and to present the material each week. A final paper is due on the last day of this seminar.

Health Equality and Social Justice
Health Equality Social Ju
This 14-week elective, offered during the second year spring semester of the DPT curriculum, creates an environment in which students will grapple with the disproportionate healthcare barriers that underrepresented and underserved populations and communities face. Through a combination of dialogue-based seminars, guest lectures, and carefully selected resources, students will engage in and expand their knowledge on various social justice topics. The course will strengthen students’ ability to reflect critically on their experiences and inspire future advocacy for marginalized and underserved communities. The course provides learners to engage and reflect in vital, thorny conversations on topics around social justice. The seminars are student-driven dialogues on and around one of five topics: 1) systemic racism and black America, 2) non-black minority (Latino/a/e, Asian, Indigenous, Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern), 3) gender, sex, and sexual orientation, 4) intersecting identities, wealth inequality, & the urban/rural divide and 5) (dis)ability and ableism. Students are given a variety of resources such as narratives, guest speakers, books, poems, music, and papers, that will expand knowledge and understanding and stimulate respectful student-driven discussions. Successful completion of the course permits student learners to facilitate an orientation social justice seminar and apply as a teaching assistant for Professional Leadership and Practice I. Seminar discussions are rooted in a foundation of respect and cultural competency. Students will attend guest lectures that will further expand their understanding of the selected topics. Students who have passed the course are permitted to: 1) Volunteer and facilitate an orientation seminar for the incoming 1st year class 2) Apply as Teaching Assistants for PLP I and II.

LAW AND VIOLENCE: CRITICAL PERSPECTIVES
LAW/VIOLENCE: CRITICAL PE
Law is often considered to be the opposite of violence: Promising to deliver us from the cycles of violence preceding its arrival, it sets its task as the establishment of a normative order that sanctions arbitrary and illegitimate uses of violence, derives its legitimacy from our consent, and guarantees formal equality to everyone under its rule. Various critics have challenged this conventional understanding of law, however, and examined the numerous ways in which law finds itself entangled with the very violence that it aims to combat. They have pointed out how the enforcement of law often entails the use of coercion and force, that legal decisions involve legitimations of state violence, and that the provision of rights often goes hand in hand with the entrenchment of social inequality and domination. Taking Walter Benjamin’s “Critique of Violence” as a focal point, this course examines a wide range of critical perspectives on the relationship between law and violence. Following our study of Benjamin, we turn to the deconstructionist perspectives represented by Jacques Derrida and Judith Butler. Then we move to the biopolitical critique developed by Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, and Roberto Esposito. Following these continental perspectives, we turn to the American scene and read the criticisms developed by Robert Cover as well as Critical Legal Studies (e.g., Duncan Kennedy, Roberto Unger) and Critical Race Theory (e.g., Derrick Bell, Patricia Williams). In the final section, we examine three thinkers who strive to chart a path beyond the impasses we studied and navigate the aporias arising from law’s entanglement with violence (albeit in very different ways): Hannah Arendt, Jürgen Habermas, and Christoph Menke.

INT'L POLITICS OF CLIMATE CHANGE
INT'L POLITICS CLIMATE CH
Climate change presents arguably the biggest threat to humanity in recorded history. It has the potential to change international politics in unprecedented ways. It also represents a global problem for which both mitigation and adaptation require international cooperation. Yet the study of climate change in the field of international relations remains underdeveloped relative to other topics in IR, and certainly relative to the enormity of the stakes.
This advanced graduate colloquium (seminar format) will explore existing literatures and emerging research agendas on climate change in the field of international relations. We will draw also on literatures and research in other subfields and other disciplines as this topic is inherently interdisciplinary.
