SUMMARY:Kirsten Moore-Sheeley - “From Kenyan Particulars to Global Universals: Making Insecticide-Treated Bed Nets into a Biomedical Technology”
DESCRIPTION:Monday Colloquium \nOctober 8 \n4 pm\, Bunche 5288 \nKirsten Moore-Sheeley will give the first talk in the colloquium series this year.  Kirsten has a postdoctoral position in the new Cedars-Sinai Program in the History of Medicine\, and she will be teaching a course on the history of global health (Hist 179A) in Winter 2019.  The colloquium will be followed by a reception. \nTitle: \n“From Kenyan Particulars to Global Universals: Making Insecticide-Treated Bed Nets into a Biomedical Technology” \nAbstract: \nToday\, insecticide-treated bed nets are a primary malaria control intervention\, understood to save lives anywhere malaria poses a risk. However\, scientists and health officials did not always understand this mundane object as a universally-applicable\, biomedical technology. This talk takes an in-depth look at the process by which insecticide-treated nets were consolidated as a biomedical technology through an historical ethnography of the last and largest bed net experiment ever conducted: a community randomized controlled trial in the Siaya district of western Kenya. In the mid-1990s\, scientists from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Kenya Medical Research Institute sought to demonstrate insecticide-treated nets could reduce child mortality even in the most extreme conditions of malaria transmission. Rather than implement experimental protocols in a straightforward manner\, scientists had to continually tailor their research practices to circumstances and populations in Siaya. While local health workers and residents from Siaya played a significant role in producing biomedical knowledge about insecticide-treated nets\, recognition of their influence got lost as researchers generalized experimental findings into global health knowledge. Consequently\, public health policy makers and programmers overlooked the work necessary to make bed nets function as biomedical tools\, much to the detriment of early bed net distribution and malaria control efforts in Africa.

SUMMARY:Martina Kessel\, "Performing Germanness: Laughter and Violence in Nazi Germany"
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, October 2\, 2018 4PM \nBunche 6275 \nEuropean Colloquium Speaker Series \nMartina Kessel\, “Performing Germanness: Laughter and Violence in Nazi Germany” \nMartina Kessel looks at the meaning and role of humor as an identity practice in Germany during the time of Nation- al Socialism in Germany. One theory that she will explore in her lecture is that non-Jewish Germans disguised vio- lence as ‘art’ to justify their failure to comply with interna- tional or humanitarian beliefs. \nMartina Kessel is a Historian of Modern Germany at Biele- feld University\, Germany\, with particular interest in inclu- sion and exclusion\, the history of violence\, international relations\, gender and cultural history. She has written on British and French policy towards Germany after 1945; \na History of Boredom in the 19th century\, and on ques- tions of theory and historiography. Her forthcoming book is titled Gewalt und Gelächter. ‚Deutschsein‘ 1914-1945  (Laughter and Violence. ‘Being German’ 1914 – 1945). \nThis lecture is part of the Gerda Henkel Lecture Series\, organized by GHI West\, the Pacific Regional Office of the Germany Historical Institute\, Washington DC\, in coopera- tion with the Gerda Henkel Foundation and the UCLA Department of History.

SUMMARY:Peter Loewenberg - "Max Weber\, Sigmund Freud\, Charismatic Power\, and Political Leadership"
DESCRIPTION:NOTE: This event is free for students and UCLA faculty. For UCLA faculty\, please identify yourself as UCLA faculty (a UCLA ID will help) at the door.  \nMax Weber\, Sigmund Freud\, Charismatic Power\, and Political Leadership\nMay 17\, 2018\, 8:00 – 10:00 PM \n\n2018 FRANZ ALEXANDER LECTURE\nPresented by Peter Loewenberg\, PhD\nPsychoanalysis is a social science as well as a humanistic hermeneutic and a psychological science. Dr. Loewenberg compares the lives and thought of two great Central European shapers of modern culture\, Sigmund Freud (1856- 1939)\, creator of psychoanalysis\, and Max Weber (1864-1920)\, founder of modern interpretive comparative sociology. Weber was a contemporary of Freud who was the shaper of social science method. He explores their lives and insights on leadership\, political power and domination and applies their insights to empirical leadership functions in the current world. \nLearning Objectives \nAs a result of attending this session\, participants should be able to: \n• Describe the theoretical contributions of Weber and Freud as they apply to leadership\, political power\, and domination. \n• Examine the nature of charismatic leadership in the political process and accepted empirical leadership functions in the current world \n• Explain how Weber’s analysis of the Protestant ethic interface with Freudian psychodynamics \nPeter Loewenberg\, PhD\, is Professor Emeritus of History and Political Psychology at UCLA. He is a Training and Supervising Analyst and former Dean of the New Center for Psychoanalysis. He was elected North American Representative on the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA) Board. He Chaired the IPA China Committee\, 2007-2013. He is the author of many publications\, including Decoding the Past: the Psychohistorical Approach (1996) and Fantasy and Reality in History (1995). He is Editor (with Nellie Thompson) of 100 Years of the IPA (1910-2010) (2011). He was elected an Honorary Member of the German Psychoanalytic Association (DPV)\, was the Sir Peter Ustinov Visiting Professor at the University of Vienna\, and received the Nevitt Sanford Award for his professional contributions to the field of Political Psychology. He served as Chair of the Committee on Research and Special Training of the American Psychoanalytic Association. Winner of the first Edith Sabshin Award “for excellence in teaching psychoanalytic concepts” in 1999\, he is also the recipient of Fulbright\, Social Science Research Council\, American Council of Learned Societies\, National Endowment for the Humanities\, Guggenheim\, Rockefeller\, Austrian Ministry of Education\, Pro Helvetia\, and Max Planck Institute für Geschichte fellowships and many other honors.

SUMMARY:Secular Enlightenment: Balancing Faith and Masonic Virtues
DESCRIPTION:Secular Enlightenment: Balancing Faith and Masonic Virtues \nJoin us for the UCLA International Conference on Freemasonry\, free for UCLA students and faculty. \nThe conference will take place on Saturday\, April 7\, 2018\, at Covell Commons\, in the Grand Horizon Ballroom\, from 8:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. \nScholars from around the world will participate in a deep discussion of the nuanced relationship between Freemasonry\, religion\, and the development of secular democratic societies around the world. Learn how Freemasonry incorporated a diverse spectrum of religious views\, as well as how religious and nonreligious Masons became proponents of a secular fraternity and secular governments. \nHear from distinguished professor of history Margaret Jacob in her last year at UCLA prior to retirement. Speakers from around the world will travel to Los Angeles to honor Professor Jacob’s remarkable career and share global perspectives of Freemasonry in a historical context. \n\nNatalie Bayer\, Ph.D.\, Drake University\, Iowa – 18th-Century Russian Freemasonry: Learn how Freemasonry and Masonic lodges played a vital role in the transmission of ideas within 18th century Russian society.\nPierre-Yves Beaurepaire\, Ph.D.\, University of Nice\, France – Lodges as Sanctuaries or Workshops for the World: In the 18th century\, Masonic lodges found themselves at a crossroads when some members wanted to limit philanthropy to the intimate setting of the lodge and others wanted to promote Masonic values within the public sphere.\nJosé Antonio Ferrer Benimeli\, Ph.D.\, University of Zaragoza\, Spain – The French Revolution: Did existing Masonic values of fraternity and equality fuel the French Revolution\, or was it the French Revolution that enshrined these values in Freemasonry?\nJessica Harland-Jacobs\, Ph.D.\, University of Florida – Early Secular Freemasonry: Although early Freemasonry claimed to accept men of all faiths\, in the 19th century\, this aim was oftentimes limited by imperialist forces.\nReinhard Markner\, M.A.\, University of Innsbruck\, Austria – Revisiting the Illuminati: Although the Illuminati Order was dismissed as a school for radicalism in the 1700s\, contemporary research suggests that Illuminati degrees may in fact align with the central ideas of radical\, secular Enlightenment thought.\nRemzi Sanver\, Ph.D.\, Istanbul Bilgi University\, Turkey – Secular Spirituality: From the unique vantage point of 20th century Turkey\, discover how Freemasonry offers men an avenue for exploring secular spirituality through universal esotericism.\nMaría Eugenia Vázquez Semadeni\, Ph.D.\, Mexico – Unveiling Masonic History: Learn more about Margaret Jacob’s influential role in the field of Masonic historical research.\n\nJoin us! \nConference attendance is free for UCLA students and faculty.
