  • structures of the modern world function by drawing lines, enforcing labels, building binaries, and constructing logics that are meant to describe all things perfectly. To be sure, it can be useful to label, draw lines, articulate binaries, and form logic—a world that discarded each mental process completely would be incomprehensible. Genocide is not solely the product of logic, its labels, and the subsequent hierarchy of meaning to which they give rise: it is the result of a totalized, enforced version

  • culture to and native species conservation from 1850s to present in ColoradoIn this paper, I examine the troubling history of the greenback cutthroat trout, a Colorado state fish, which has has been the focus of conservation efforts from Colorado Parks and Wildlife in recent times. Drawing from the disciplines of environmental history and biology , I study the impact of the pike Peak Gold Rush, the accompanying rapid urbanization of the landscape, the influx of eastern settlers that led to a higher

  • , the synthesis of these compounds has been drawing attention in order to optimize the production and specialization of the medications. In the past, hydroxyurea synthesis has been achieved by various methods, including the utilization of carbamates, carbamoyl azides, and phosgene pathways, however each of these routes fall short with regard to environmentalism in their procedural approaches. The synthesis of hydroxyureas through mechanisms containing DMDTC (dimethyl dithiocarbamate) as a reactant

  • strategy to combat this trend has been proposed which involves trapping CO2 emissions at their source, and/or drawing CO2 out of the atmosphere, known as carbon capture. An extension of this strategy involves use of the captured CO2 as a reagent to produce methanol (for fuel as well as other purposes). This review examines some of the chemical and technological barriers to making this strategy viable. Three primary barriers are examined: capturing CO2, producing the hydrogen gas necessary to convert

  • and actively with contending perspectives on global issues, their origins, and possible solutions to global problems, drawing on methods and perspectives from multiple disciplines. To this end, the program offers courses and experiences designed to equip students with the skills and analytical methods needed to comprehend and engage with contemporary global problems and possible solutions, particularly those related to development and social justice, transnational movements of people and ideas

  • (WHO), in responding to COVID-19?” Drawing from the disciplines of international relations and development studies, the lecture will: 1. Introduce concepts regarding global governance and cooperation; 2. Explain what the WHO is and its varied responses (and results) in response to COVID-19 and other disease outbreaks (i.e., the 2014 Ebola outbreak); and 3. Explore the possibilities and complications that arise through global cooperation in times of crisis, especially in the context of global

  • recover from health crises. Critics of the concept have argued that, in its most common applications, resilience frameworks disproportionately locate responsibility for responding to crises in communities themselves, drawing attention away from structural causes of crises. Rather than resolve the ‘problem’ of whether the notion of resilience is good or bad for health equity, I draw on case studies of recent health crises to highlight the tensions that such critiques reveal about the blind spots of

  • Hispanic studies, and Riley Dolan ’19 Although Kishaba’s swim team schedule kept her from traveling to Montevideo, she conducted historical research and wrote the interview questions. Her presentation, “Situating the Stories: History of Jewish Migration in Uruguay,” explored the forces shaping the interviewees’ lives. Watching their video testimonies afterwards, Kishaba found their personal perspectives especially meaningful, drawing parallels with her own grandparents. Being part of a team suited

Tiantian Zheng, Ph.D. SUNY Distinguished Professor, Anthropology State University of New York, Cortland Worthy vs Unworthy Victims of Sexual Violence in Postsocialist China Drawing on women’s lived experiences of sexual violence and sexual coercion in their lives, this paper uncovers the cultural system of power hierarchy that creates injustice and inequity. Women in my research who have experienced sexual coercion by their partners have chosen not to report it in court. In their
