SUMMARY:Book Launch · “Infrastructure Policy and Inequality” by Michael A. Cohen
DESCRIPTION:The Observatory on Latin America presents the book launch: Infrastructure Policy and Inequality\, by Michael Cohen \nWelcoming Remarks: \nJoel Towers\nPresident\, The New School \nBook Presentation: \nMichael Cohen\nDirector of the Doctoral Program in Public and Urban Policy\, The New School \nDiscussants: \nAromar Revi\nDirector\, Indian Institute for Human Settlements \nSakiko Fukuda-Parr\nProfessor of International Affairs\, The New School \nNidhi Srinivas\nProfessor of Management\, The New School \n  \nSeptember 24\, 2024\n6:00 pm – 8:00 pm\nWollman Hall\, Fifth Floor\, Room B500\,\n65 West 11th Street\, New York \nRegister here* \n*This is an in-person event. Please RSVP by clicking on the red RSVP button on the linked page. \n  \nThis book reframes the purpose of infrastructure from being an input to economic growth to becoming a major instrument in reducing socio-economic inequalities in both industrialized and developing countries. \nPer Michael\, this book surveys infrastructure policies and performance over several decades\, drawing on global and national lessons of COVID-19 and extensive working experience in 55 countries. “It reviews the World Bank’s experience launching a 30-year program to alleviate urban poverty through 7\,000 projects. It shows that many significant policy changes have improved global urban policies adopted by national and local governments\, yet they have failed to significantly address and reduce intra-urban inequalities.” \nIt suggests that the “underperformance” of infrastructure could be improved by paying more attention to users and the demand side\, thereby contributing to overcoming many obstacles facing low-income communities worldwide. \n

SUMMARY:PANEL · Contesting Futures: Beyond the UN Summit for the Future
DESCRIPTION:Is the UN approach to the future ambitious enough? Does it represent the aspirations of the diversity of peoples around the world? Can it empower nations\, communities\, and cultures to identify their paths to fulfill their own expectations\, desires\, and capacities? \nThis panel will challenge the UN Summit approach envisioning a single future based on decades of meetings and international commitments. \nSpeakers will examine different attitudes towards the future\, means of articulating fears and desires for the world to come\, including possibilities\, limitations\, and agency. The idea is to create spaces for more inclusive imaginations. \nThe event will conclude with an open conversation with the audience about their insights provoked by the panelists. \n  \nPROGRAM \n6 pm \nLisa Rubin\, Interim Executive Dean\, Schools of Public Engagement\, The New School \n\nWelcoming Remarks                       \n\nMargarita Gutman\, Emeritus Professor; Co-Director\, OLA \n\nIntroducing the Event\n\nJuan Manuel González Scobie\, Senior Fellow\, OLA \n\nThe UN Summit of the Future\n\n  \nPANELISTS \n6.30 pm \nAdam Brown\, Vice Provost of Research; Professor of Psychology\, The New School \n\nThe Power of Attitudes: Shaping futures and acting\n\nDarrick Hamilton\, Director of the Institute on Race\, Power and Political Economy\, The New School \n\nBoundaries of Worries: Designing equitable paths\n\nEliana Martinez Herrera\, Professor of Public Health\, Universidad de Antioquia\, Colombia \n\nPeople’s Creativity: Disrupting futures                       \n\nSheela Patel\, Founding Director\, Slum Dwellers International (SDI)\, Mumbai \n\nVulnerability Empowered: Shaping socially just futures\n\n  \n7:30 pm \nOpen Discussion Moderated by: \nMichael Cohen\, Director\, Doctoral Program in Public and Urban Policy; Co-Director\, OLA \n  \nREGISTER here* \nYou are welcome! \nThursday September 19\, 2024\n6:00PM – 8:00PM (EST)\nStarr Hall\, University Center\, UL102\n63 5th Avenue\, New York \n  \nIf you have any questions about this event\, please contact contacto@2084futurosimaginados.org \n*This is an in-person event.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Colonized Temporalities\, with Carmen Ibáñez Cueto
DESCRIPTION:The Observatory on Latin America invites you to the lecture: COLONIZED TEMPORALITIES\, by Bolivian Anthropologist and Researcher from the Freie Universität Berlin\, Carmen Ibáñez Cueto. \nLecture:\nCarmen Ibáñez Cueto – Anthropologist\, Researcher\, Freie Universität Berlin \nComments:\nAnn Stoler – Professor of Anthropology\, The New School for Social Research \nWelcome:\nMichael Cohen – Director OLA\, The New School \nModerator:\nJuan Manuel González Scobie – Senior Fellow\, OLA\, The New School \nREGISTER HERE* \nMany historical accounts of the Spanish conquest of the Americas depict this as the clash of different cultures. Professor Ibáñez will further deepen this characterization by using as an entry point the matter of temporalities\, looking specifically at the high Andean region of South America. She argues that this contact between colonizers and colonized\, in this case Aymara and Quechua peoples\, brought together two forms of conceiving time that were very different. The result of this encounter was what she calls a chrono-structural mismatch\, with important consequences that should be unveiled and understood. \nMany analysts have suggested that the way people experience time is subjective\, and that time is a social – cultural construct. Time for the Indians mentioned above is conceived as a moving spiral\, whereas the Spanish introduced a linear and progressive notion of time. \nShe cites an Aymara proverb which affirms that people should walk in the present looking at the past\, carrying the future on their backs. For them the future is a continuous return to the past. In contrast for Europeans the future is a continuous breaking with and overcoming the past. These different temporal imaginaries brought forth a challenging situation: a hybrid coexistence of temporalities in which colonizers sought to domesticate the notion and experience of time of the colonized\, and the latter resisted the imposition of the Spanish imaginary. \nProfessor Ibáñez argues that this is not only a significant historical line of inquiry: it poses an important question for the present\, which has guided her research for some years. How can a mixed society (“mestizo”)\, composed of people who still hold different temporal imaginaries\, co- exist and project a common future? Do these visions collide\, complement each other\, or deny one another? \nTuesday\, February 27\, 2024\n6PM – 8PM\nUniversity Center\, Room 105\n63 5th Avenue \nIf you have any questions about this event\, please contact lizac194@newschool.edu. \n*This is an in-person event.

SUMMARY:Latin America in a Multi-polar World
DESCRIPTION:The Observatory on Latin America OLA\, The Julien J. Studley Graduate Programs in International Affairs\, Schools of Public Engagement\, Universidad de los Andes\, Colegio de Mexico and Universidad Torcuato Di Tella\, invite you to the International conference\, Latin America in a Multi-polar World. \nThe growing convergence of COVID-19\, the war in Ukraine\, food and fuel shortages around the world\, have all given rise to a perception that the world cannot be left to either US-Russia or US-China bi-polar relations. The recent announcement that the BRICS (Brazil\, Russia\, India\, China\, and South Africa) has been expanded to include Argentina\, Egypt\, Ethiopia\, Iran\, Saudi Arabia\, and United Arab Emirates is a major step in this direction. This conference will discuss this process and what it means for Latin America. \nRegister here\nNovember 16\, 2023\n2:00 – 6:00 pm\n63 Fifth Avenue\, Room UL 105 | The New School\nNew York\, NY 10011\nview the map \nPROGRAM\nNovember 16\, 2023\nPanel Three: Reforming the Interamerican System to be Relevant for Present Problems \nModerator: Renata Segura\, Deputy Program Director for Latin America and the Caribbean\, International Crisis Group \nSpeakers: \n– Guadalupe González\, Colegio de Mexico\, Mexico City\n– Sandra Borda\, Universidad de las Andes\, Bogota \nDiscussant: Kevin B.

DESCRIPTION:The Observatory on Latin America OLA\, The Julien J. Studley Graduate Programs in International Affairs\, Schools of Public Engagement\, Universidad de los Andes\, Colegio de Mexico and Universidad Torcuato Di Tella\, invite you to the International conference\, Latin America in a Multi-polar World. \nThe growing convergence of COVID-19\, the war in Ukraine\, food and fuel shortages around the world\, have all given rise to a perception that the world cannot be left to either US-Russia or US-China bi-polar relations. The recent announcement that the BRICS (Brazil\, Russia\, India\, China\, and South Africa) has been expanded to include Argentina\, Egypt\, Ethiopia\, Iran\, Saudi Arabia\, and United Arab Emirates is a major step in this direction. This conference will discuss this process and what it means for Latin America. \nRegister here\nNovember 15\, 2023\n2:00 – 6:00 pm\nLang Student Center\, 55 W.13 th Street | The New School\nNew York\, NY 10011\nview the map \nNovember 16\, 2023\n2:00 – 6:00 pm\n63 Fifth Avenue\, Room UL 105 | The New School\nNew York\, NY 10011\nview the map \nPROGRAM\nNovember 15\, 2023\nWelcoming Remarks: \n– Mary Watson\, Executive Dean\, The New School for Public Engagement\n– Juan G.

Unlike traditional poetry\, which relies primarily on language and textual structure\, visual poetry uses space\, shape\, color\, and the arrangement of words and images on the page or in physical space to convey its meaning. \nIn visual poetry\, the design and arrangement of visual elements are as important as the words themselves. Visual poets may employ different techniques and mediums to create their works\, such as collage\, photography\, typography\, graphics\, and painting. The goal is to generate a poetic experience through the unique combination of visual and textual elements. \nVisual poetry can address a wide range of themes and emotions and can convey meanings and sensations in ways that conventional written language alone cannot capture. By combining visual and textual elements\, visual poetry invites the reader to interact with the work in a more participatory and multisensory way\, thus creating a more complete and enriching poetic experience. \nAbout 2084 Imagined Futures from the South\nThe future is currently a field in dispute\, inclusive futures require considering the aspirations of society as a whole and not only of the sectors that are used to exercising their “capacity to aspire” (Appadurai\, 2004). So that the future includes us all it is crucial to activate each imagination and encourage everyone to occupy the everyday life of the future. \n\nLearn more about the 2084 Imagined Futures Program\nVisit the Museum of Futures\nShare your imaginations on our website\nFollow us on Instagram @2084futurosimaginados \, communicate with us\n\nWe summon imaginations and amplify the voices of those that usually go unheard. \nThe future will be what we imagine and do today. \nTravel to 2084 and tell what you see\, hear\, smell\, feel\, think\, dream\, fear\, desire… \n

SUMMARY:Iran #3037: Political Sexual Violence Under The Dictatorship
DESCRIPTION:The Observatory on Latin America and the Schools of Public Engagement invite you to: \nFilm Screening of Irán #3037 [violencia politico sexual en dictadura] (Iran #3037: Political Sexual Violence under the Dictatorship) \nIran #3037 was a clandestine center of detention and torture under the brutal regime of General Augusto Pinochet. Referred to as The Sexy Blindfold (La Venda Sexy) or the Discotheque\, it was known for sexual violation and abuse. Today it is a site of protest as activists call for the house to be transformed into a feminist memorial site. Iran #3037 powerfully dramatizes the situation of the family living in the house today and the struggle surrounding the site. The drama had a long run in Chile\, playing in the National Theater of Chile as part of a “Theater in Emergency” cycle. While the play deals with the past\, it hit a chord with the public as it seemed to dramatize the police violence surrounding the recent social uprising (estallido social) as well. \nPlease join us for the first film screening of Iran #3037 in the United States followed by a conversation with the director\, Patricia Artés Ibañez. The film is subtitled in English. \nPatricia Artés Ibañez is a Chilean researcher and feminist theater director. She holds a Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Studies in Thought\, Culture and Society from the University of Valparaíso. She has co-authored an anthology of 20th-century women’s playwrights\, Evidencias\, las otras dramaturgias (Evidence: the Other Playwrights). \nThe event will be introduced by Terri Gordon\, Associate Professor of Comparative Literature\, Schools of Public Engagement. \nThis is an in-person event. \nWhere: Wollman Hall\, 65 W. 11 th Street\, Room B500\nDate and Time:\nThursday 13 October 2022\n6:00-8:00 pm (EST) \nREGISTER HERE \nIf you have any questions about this event\, please contact risac646@newschool.edu \n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nPresented by the Observatory on Latin America and the Schools of Public Engagement. Co-sponsored by the School of Undergraduate Studies and the Gender and Sexualities Studies Institute of The New School and the Modern Languages and Literatures Department of Brooklyn College.

SUMMARY:Cities and Economic Inequality in Latin America
DESCRIPTION:This book examines trends and determinants of economic inequality in cities in Latin America\, the world’s most unequal region. It explores how the gap between the haves and the have nots manifests in every part of urban life – from housing to schooling to employment. It asks why some cities have higher inequality than others and what we can learn from these differences as we push back against inequality. \nThe book starts with reviewing the policies and forces that explain the rise and fall of inequality in Latin America since the 1990s and why progress in reducing inequality has stalled. It then focuses on Argentina’s cities and applies a set of quantitative tools to identify inequality determinants. It finds that intra-urban inequality generally mirrors national-level trends\, but local idiosyncrasies related to a city’s labor market\, informal employment\, and social protection systems matter. The book discusses the pitfalls of privatizing public services that turned access to water in metropolitan Buenos Aires more unequal. It explores the promises and unintended consequences of slum upgrading initiatives in Buenos Aires’ Villa 20. \nThe book presents lessons that can inform policies and practices in the region and beyond. Developing a strategy against inequality that incorporates local features and resists the temptation to rely on the “free market” for solutions to urban problems offers a powerful opportunity. Drawing from the field of economics and social and urban policy\, this book shows that the battle against inequality is not only won and lost in cities but also requires a uniquely public and urban response. As such\, it will be of interest to advanced students\, researchers\, and policymakers across development economics\, urban studies\, and Latin American studies. \n  \n\n\n\n\nWelcoming Remarks\nMary Watson\, Executive Dean\, Schools of Public Engagement \nDiscussants\nSanjay Reddy\, Chair of the Department of Economics\, The New School\nMarcela Melendez\, Chief Economist for Latin America\, UNDP\nMarcelo Medeiros\, Visiting Professor\, Columbia University \nThursday\, September 29th\, 2022\n6:30 pm to 8:00 pm (EST) \nWhere: Dorothy Hirshon Suite\nArnhold Hall\, room l203\, 2nd floor\n55 West 13th Street\, New York NY 10011 \nLena Simet is a scholar\, writer\, and researcher interested in cities\, urban poverty\, and intra-urban inequality. She is currently a senior researcher and advocate on poverty and inequality at Human Rights Watch. She received her PhD from The New School and lives in New York City. \nREGISTER HERE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by Observatory on Latin America of the Julien J.

SUMMARY:Book Launch · The Walls of Santiago
DESCRIPTION:Beginning in October 2019\, Chile was marked by protests and political upheaval\, as what began as civil disobedience transformed into a vast resistance movement. Throughout\, one of the most striking aspects of the protests was the murals\, graffiti\, and other political graphics that became ubiquitous in Chilean cities. \nIn this fascinating\, beautifully illustrated book\, Terri Gordon-Zolov and Eric Zolov—who were in Santiago to witness and document the protests from their very beginnings—offer a vivid catalog of Chilean wall art\, along with reflections on its artistic antecedents\, the context of global protest movements\, and the long shadow cast by Chile’s authoritarian past. \nAs a result of the uprising\, Chile is now in the process of writing a new constitution\, and previous student leader Gabriel Boric has been elected as president. The Walls of Santiago provides a window into the origins of this profoundly democratic yet revolutionary process. \nIntroduction and welcoming remarks:\nMichael Cohen\, Director\, OLA\nMary Watson\, Executive Dean\, NSPE \nPanelists:\nTerri Gordon-Zolov\, Associate Dean of Faculty Affairs; Associate Professor of Comparative Literature\, The New School\nEric Zolov\, Professor of History\, Stony Brook University\nMarcial Godoy-Anativia\, Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics\, New York University\nJulia Foulkes\, Professor of History\, The New School\nNidhi Srinivas\, Associate Professor of Management\, The New School \nPresented by the Observatory on Latin America\, the Schools of Public Engagement\, and the School of Undergraduate Studies. \nDate and Time:\nThursday 5 May 2022\n6:00-8:00 pm (EST)\nAmphitheater 404\, Alvin Johnson/J.M. Kaplan Hall\n66 W. 12th street\nNew York\nNY\, 10011 \nThis is an in person event.\nAudience members must register for the event\, show proof of a full COVID-19 vaccination series (and booster if eligible)\, ID\, and remain masked at all times. \nPlease contact ola@newschool.edu with any questions.

SUMMARY:Futures of the Past · Second Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:In this second panel event\, members of the international research training group “Temporalities of Future” will present research on Latin American futures formulated in the past. \nThe Temporalities of Future group writes: “Our focus on the aspirations and anticipations of various actors who produce new temporalities of the future through constant interaction represents a novel approach which adds a much-needed perspective on subaltern and non-Western agency with regard to the future.”  \nThis echoes the 2084 Imagined Futures from the South program’s call to action:  “the future belongs to those who imagine it… Let’s Occupy the Future!”  \n  \nPanelists:   \nStefan Rinke\, Profesor and speaker\, Temporalities of Future\, Institute for Latin American Studies\, Freie Universität Berlin \nJosé Francisco Hernández Reyes\, PhD candidate\, History. Project: “From Ottoman Subjects to Eastern French: Temporary Culture and Sense of Belonging in the Arabophone Communities in Mexico\, 1908-1938” \nLasse Hölck\, Postdoctoral fellow\, History.

DESCRIPTION:The Observatory on Latin America OLA and Café de las Ciudades invite to the online presentation of the book \nInclusion and tensions in the Matanza-Riachuelo basin.\nDilemmas of socio-spatial integration in Buenos Aires\nMargarita Gutman (director) \nComplex problems require complex approaches. The Matanza-Riachuelo river basin is a paradigmatic case of strong social and spatial tensions and asymmetries. To understand and cope with these problems requires analysis at multiple scales and knowledges\, management and public policies. \nFollowing the interdisciplinary tradition of urban studies\, the authors of this book articulate knowledge related to social dynamics\, typical of the social and anthropological sciences\, with that knowledge enunciated by the design disciplines dealing with urban physical space. \nAuthors\nAndrea Arosa – Adriana Clemente – José Dadón – Javier Fernández Castro – Verónica Gallardo – Margarita Gutman- Mónica Lacarrieu – Vanesa Marazzi – Ariel Misuraca – Javier Nesprías – Miguel Pich-Aguilera – Ariel Pradelli – Ximena Puppo – Domingo Risso Patron – Juan Pablo Scaglia – Matías Torres – Laura Wainer \nPIUBAMAS\nINTERDISCIPLINARY PROGRAM\nOF THE UNIVERSITY OF BUENOS AIRES\nON SOCIAL MARGINALITIES \nJoin us to share the comments of two renowned representatives of the academic and political field of Argentina: \nRoberto Doberti\, PHDi in Architecture\, National University of Rosario and Architect\, University of Buenos Aires.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Futures of the Past · First Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe program 2084: Futures Imagined from the South seeks to unleash\, promote and strengthen the imagination of futures as a capacity\, both individual and collective. It seeks to mobilize thinking about the future of Latin American cities from a multiplicity of voices and experiences\, with the aim of provoking conversations between diverse actors and thereby contributing to the collective construction of that future. \nThe program also intends to investigate and discuss how the future was thought in past times – what we call Futures of the Past\, and how this was reflected in different media: cinema\, literature\, plastic arts\, music\, urban plans\, popular culture and even different worldviews. \nIn this discussion\, the panelists will address the futures of the past from very different sources: popular imaginations of Buenos Aires at the beginning of the 20th century reflected in illustrated magazines\, contrasted with the imaginations of experts in urban planning; the conception of space-time in Quechua culture and how this questions linear views of time; and\, in a shift in focus\, the reimagining of the early 21st century from hypothetical interviews conducted in 2066. \n. \nPanelists\n• Alma Sarmiento\, Universidad del Rosario\, Bogotá\, Colombia\n• Enrique Rodriguez\, Icesi\, Cali\, Colombia\n• Martin Groissman\, University of Buenos Aires\, Buenos Aires\, Argentina\n• Margarita Gutman\, The New School\, New York\, United States \nModerator\n• Juan Manuel González\, The New School\, New York\, United States \n  \nThis webinar will be held through the Zoom and will be in Spanish. \nREGISTER HERE
