ENERGY MANAGEMENT: PUBLIC & PRIVATE SECT

ENERGY MANAGEMENT PUB/PRI SECT

Prerequisites: INAF U6072 or SUMA K4155
This course delivers students a practical view and associated tools for management of energy in individual facilities as well as throughout larger portfolios of facilities or assets. Students will review aspects of the operations involved in the Energy Manger's role including how energy markets and policies intersect with the facility and portfolio investment and management. Through class lectures, industry articles, site visits, assigned readings, and expert speakers, the course will provide students with the ability to understand how energy policy, markets, and regulation intersect with operational personnel, equipment, budgets, and contracts. Case studies where students assess the success of various theoretical concepts and applications are included.

THE ETHNOGRAPHY OF SOUND

Prerequisites: the instructor's permission.
How does one live with sound and move within worlds of sound? How does one think with sound, and through sound? In pursuit of such questions the course explores: soundscapes, acoustic ecology, and soundwalks; historical listening, echoes of audible pasts, and resonances of auditory cultures; uncanny narrative effects of sonic forces in myth and literature; technological effects of repeated listenings in the age of electronic reproduction, ethereal transmissions, and audio-vision; sounds at the edges of listening with experimental music. Sound, chambers, noise, feedback, voice, resonance, silence: from the sirens of the Odyssey, to the captured souls of Edison's phonography, to compositional figures ala John Cage, to everyday acoustical adventures, if one were to really listen, closely, how might one write about sound? What/who might the listening subject be?

CLEAN ENERGY FINANCIAL INNOVATION

Prerequisites: INAF U6072 or SUMA K4155
Clean Energy Financial Innovation will focus on the financing of clean energy generation, energy efficiency and energy storage. The course is complimentary to International Energy Project Finance (INAF U6040) and not intended to have substantial overlap. Instead, Clean Energy Financial Innovation will cover those transaction and financing structures outside traditional utility scale project finance. Clean Energy Finance will focus upon the fragmented distributed generation and energy efficiency sectors where portfolio approaches and other innovative techniques are required. Such financing structures often require a combination of project finance techniques, securitization and other structured finance skill sets. The objective of Clean Energy Finance is to introduce students to asset deployment market participants and business models, key contractual arrangements, capital structuring techniques, private market precedents and criteria, public market precedents and criteria, and the at financing frontier transaction types that have yet to be financed but that offer tremendous potential. Students completing the course should have a broad understanding of clean energy deployment transaction types, example participants, precedent transactions, methodologies for considering the viability of transaction types and financing structures, and investor requirements.

REINING IN THE BIG BANKS: SUPERVIS & REG

Prerequisites: SIPA U6400 or SIPA U6401, & SIPA U6200
This course will address four questions.  Do recent financial reforms represent sufficient change to address the forces that led to the combined Great Recession and financial crisis?  How well do the multiple new or revised requirements integrate into a system of regulation and supervision that matches the degree of restraint to the forward-looking vulnerabilities and risks in financial institutions?  Do the new requirements encourage or impede firms to develop sustainable business models with prudent levels of risk?  Should the regulation and supervision of individual institutions take into account vulnerabilities that develop in the financial system and if so, how?

CHANGING GLOBAL ECONOMIC ORDER

During the past few decades, Americans have grown accustomed to the post-World War II global economic order – an order that now is being severely tested and dramatically altered by numerous factors. Of these, the diffusion and redistribution of international economic power among countries and regions is probably the most dramatic. These rapidly emerging powers, each with histories, cultures, and economic systems that differ markedly from those of the nations that established the post- War international order are altering it and aim to do so to an even greater degree to better reflect their interests and aspirations. The Course will examine these developments and their impact on key regions of the world and the global order – as well as on American economic, political and security interests. It will also identify the kinds of policy measures the US should adopt in response.

COMP DIASPORAS & TRANSLATION

A seminar on the theory and practice of translation from the perspective of comparative diaspora studies, drawing on the key scholarship on diaspora that has emerged over the past two decades focusing on the central issue of language in relation to migration, uprooting, and imagined community. Rather than foregrounding a single case study, the syllabus is organized around the proposition that any consideration of diaspora requires a consideration of comparative and overlapping diasporas, and as a consequence a confrontation with multilingualism, creolization and the problem of translation. The final weeks of the course will be devoted to a practicum, in which we will conduct an intensive workshop around the translation projects of the student participants.

SOCI THEORY&CONTEMP; QUESTIONS

Prerequisites: the instructor's permission.
This course is designed for students in their first-year of the MA program in the Department of Anthropology. In it, we will explore the generative tensions within concepts of ‘the social' that have animated anthropological theory since its earliest days. Combining canonical texts with contemporary ethnography, explore foundational questions about the making and valuing of kinds of humans (and convivial non-humans) and about the production, aggregation, and disaggregation of their collectivities. Ultimately we consider the recent turn to theories of life itself in light of these longstanding questions, and along the way, we will encounter such varied ‘big thinkers' of collective life as Engels, Durkheim, Levi-Strauss, Foucault, and Harraway. We will range over a varied territory of ethnographic topics-from intimacy and personhood, to suicide, to nature/culture-each of which richly illustrates the productive problems of personhood, sociality, commensurability, and history for which anthropological theory strives to account.
