SUMMARY:Activist: Agonistics: Thinking the World Politically (Chantal Mouffe)
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nIn this lecture\, renowned political philosopher Chantal Mouffe continues her exploration of agonistics and discusses different models of radical politics. Engaging with the work of Michael Hardt\, Antonio Negri and Paulo Virno and examining the signification of the recent protest movements like Occupy\, Mouffe highlights the value of political conflict—from the construction of public spaces where dissenting “points of view are confronted without any possibility of a final reconciliation” to the role of artists as organic intellectuals today—in reshaping the institutions of liberal democracy.

SUMMARY:Has the Brooklyn Waterfront Gone Global - Again?
DESCRIPTION:(Photo Credit: MVVA)\nThe Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center presents a half-day symposium investigating the global reach of the recent changes along the Brooklyn waterfront.  In the past the Brooklyn waterfront has played an important role on the global stage. In the early 19th century it was a processing destination for raw commodities such as sugar\, coffee\, and tobacco with complicity in the global slave trade. In the early 20th century\, it became an industrial center for manufacturing\, warehousing and export distribution. Then\, in the 1960s\, it suffered a huge decline in jobs\, economic vitality\, and global reach. Today there has been rejuvenation but the commerce that has returned to the waterfront is different yet again. Are these new jobs once again placing Brooklyn on the global stage? How?  In what ways is the Brooklyn waterfront having a global reach?  How is that global reach similar and different from what it once was? \nFor an updated list of speakers and panelists\, check out the BWRC website.  Click here to register for this event. \nHosted by the BWRC and UTRC. \nRegistration is free but donations are accepted above and will be matched by a sponsoring grant.\nContinental breakfast will be provided.
