Greetings Political Scientists and fellow members of the nerd community, On behalf of the University of San Diego and the WPSA, we welcome you to San Diego, America’s Finest City. In doing so, we want to acknowledge that the land on which we gather is the traditional and unceded territory of the Kumeyaay Nation. We want to pay respect to the citizens of the Kumeyaay Nation, both past and present, and their continuing relationship to their ancestral lands. As residents of San Diego, we believe there is no better place to gather as scholars of politics to interrogate the challenges facing our world. We are justifiably proud of our beautiful city, and no matter what San Francisco tries to tell you, we remain California’s second-largest city and the eighth-largest city in the United States. While in town, we encourage scholars of all stripes to take in all the enriching intellectual fodder the city has to offer. Befitting a conference on the politics of climate change, San Diego boasts a wealth of natural wonders to behold. Whether it’s the breathtaking beaches to the west, the arid deserts to the east, or the myriad of hiking trails at every turn, there are enough ecological marvels to satisfy any wandering soul. Additionally, as the second-largest transborder agglomeration in the U.S., scholars of borders, migration, and comparative politics will certainly have plenty to discover while visiting our fair city. San Diego is a culturally rich city that celebrates its diverse history and inhabitants, from the Japanese Friendship Garden in Balboa Park to the San Diego African American Museum of Fine Art to the murals of Chicano Park in Barrio Logan. Curious scholars of the Theological-Political Problem can marvel at a battle between Church Fathers and Communist Agents at Petco Park (which is to say, the Padres are hosting the Reds this weekend). Students of IR and Military History should be sure to take in the sights at Navy Pier, including the USS Midway Museum. Oh, and the rumors are true: San Diego has the best craft beer in the U.S. Those looking for active fun and adventure will find opportunities aplenty. The sporting life in San Diego is vibrant and diverse, notwithstanding the less than amicable divorce between our city and a certain electricity-oriented professional football club. After your panel, you can catch a wave, rent a bicycle, or just stroll around our many beautiful beaches. Balboa Park offers endless hours of outdoor fun as well as world-class museums, including the Natural History Museum, the Museum of Man, and the San Diego Art Institute. And of course, there’s Sea World and our world-famous Zoo, which are likely to be especially attractive to those traveling with children. However you decide to take in the city, we hope its wonders will enrich your experience at the conference panels, meetings, and receptions to provide the best kind of intellectual provocation and inspiration. Enjoy the conference and don’t be a stranger. Cory Charles Gooding, University of San Diego Timothy Wyman McCarty, University of San Diego Local Arrangements Co-chairs ii SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Welcome to the 2019 WPSA conference! In panels, roundtables, and poster sessions, we will gather to share our research findings and theoretical reflections. This year’s meeting also includes workshops and mini-conferences on a wide variety of intellectual, professional, and pedagogical topics. We are honored to host keynote lectures by University of California president Janet Napolitano (formerly governor of Arizona and secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security) and APSA president Rogers Smith. The theme of this year’s conference is “The Politics of Climate Change.” According to the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, annual net carbon emissions must be reduced by 45% by 2030 and brought down to zero by 2050 if we are to avoid a catastrophic rise in the average world temperature. Yet the world has come nowhere close to meeting the challenge. As scholars and educators, political scientists can illuminate the causes of and potential responses and solutions to the crisis. We hope the conference will inspire new conversations and initiatives on this topic. This year’s program features many sessions specifically devoted to climate change. Among other sessions, I might call your attention to “Climate Change and Sustainability in the Political Science Classroom” (Thursday, 10 am), “Teaching Climate Change Radically” (Thursday, 3:15 pm), “Political Science and Climate Change: The State of the Discipline” (Friday, 10 am), and “Taking it to the Beach: Strategies for Engaging the Public on Climate Change” (Friday, 3:15 pm). Climate change will be the focus of University of California President Napolitano’s remarks on Thursday at noon. It is a pleasure to thank those who made this conference possible. Richard Clucas and Elsa Favila, executive director and associate director of WPSA, tackle a host of challenges, from the small to the very large, and give daily proof of their superhuman abilities. The section chairs took on the key responsibility of organizing panels, roundtables, and poster sessions. WPSA officers, council members, and committee members oversee governance, promote best practices, guide policy, recognize excellence in scholarship and service, and handle other tasks necessary for maintaining a healthy and productive professional association. The local arrangements chairs, Cory Gooding and Tim McCarty of the University of San Diego, have coordinated with local institutions and provided great suggestions for what to do in San Diego. Many thanks to our student volunteers. All these contributions demand time and thoughtful attention, and I am most grateful. Our thanks to the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of San Diego for its financial support, and to the Center on Global Justice of UC San Diego for co- sponsoring President Napolitano’s Pi Sigma Alpha lecture. I thank those who advised me on matters relating to the conference theme, including Gwen Arnold, iii SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Peter Cannavò, David Carruthers, Nives Dolsak, Fonna Forman, Stephen Gardiner, Cheryl Hall, Alex Lenferna, Karen Litfin, Amy Lovecraft, John Meyer, Kyle Murphy, Aseem Prakash, Michael Ross, David Schlosberg, and Abigail York. I am grateful to recent WPSA program chairs Jane Junn, Stephen Nicholson, and Julie Novkov for their encouragement and advice. Finally, I wish to thank all those presenting their work in panels, roundtables, and poster sessions, and – not least! – our chairs and discussants.

  • Misadventures of Sentience: Animals and the Basis of Equality

    Misadventures of Sentience: Animals and the Basis of Equality

    animals Article Misadventures of Sentience: Animals and the Basis of Equality Federico Zuolo Department of Classics, Philosophy and History, University of Genova, via Balbi 30, 16126 Genova, Italy; [email protected] Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 27 November 2019; Published: 29 November 2019 Simple Summary: Equal moral worth in animal ethics is an elusive moral notion not only because of the notorious human prejudice but also because grounding equal moral worth requires attending to the problem of the basis of equality. How can we ground equality given that all human and nonhuman individuals vary in all the morally considerable features? John Rawls claimed that we can use range properties, namely properties that are equally possessed by all people who pass a certain threshold of moral relevance (e.g., the age of majority gives equal right to vote). In this paper, I critically discuss two different attempts to defend an egalitarian theory in animal ethics: Alasdair Cochrane’s and Peter Singer’s. The former seeks to eschew the problem of range properties by appealing to a binary property naturally possessed by all sentient beings (the property of having interests). His attempt fails because this property has the same problems as range properties. The latter dispenses with equal moral worth altogether by defending the principle of equal consideration of interests. I argue that this principle has weak egalitarian credentials. I conclude by outlining the conditions that a sound theory in animal ethics should meet. Abstract: This paper aims to put in question the all-purposes function that sentience has come to play in animal ethics.

  • A Certain Tendency of the French Cinema Francois Truffaut

    A Certain Tendency of the French Cinema Francois Truffaut

    A CERTAIN TENDENCY OF THE FRENCH CINEMA FRANCOIS TRUFFAUT These notes have no other object than to attempt to define a certain tendency of the French cinema - a tendency called "psychological realism" - and to sketch its limits. If the French cinema exists by means of about a hundred films a year, it is well understood that only ten or twelve merit the attention of critics and cinephiles, the attention, therefore of "Cahiers." These ten or twelve films constitute what has been prettily named the "Tradition of Quality"; they force, by their ambitiousness, the admiration of the foreign press, defend the French flag twice a year at Cannes and at Venice where, since 1946, they regularly carry off medals, golden lions and grands prix. With the advent of "talkies," the French cinema was a frank plagiarism of the American cinema. Under the influence of Scarface, we made the amusing Pepe Le Moko. Then the French scenario is most clearly obliged to Prevert for its evolution: Quai Des Brumes (Port Of Shadows) remains the masterpiece of poetic realism. The war and the post-war period renewed our cinema. It evolved under the effect of an internal pressure and for poetic realism - about which one might say that it died closing Les Portes De La Nuit behind it - was substituted psychological realism, illustrated by Claude Autant-Lara, Jean Dellannoy, Rene Clement, Yves Allegret and Marcel Pagliero. SCENARISTS' FILMS If one is willing to remember that not so long ago Delannoy filmed Le Bossu and La Part De L'Ombre, Claude Autant-Lara Le Plombier Amoureux and Lettres D Amour, Yves Allegret La Boite Aux Reves and Les Demons De L’Aube, that all these films are justly recognized as strictly commercial enterprises, one will admit that, the successes or failures of these cineastes being a function of the scenarios they chose, La Symphonie Pastorale, Le Diable Au Corps (Devil In The Flesh), Jeux Interdits (Forbidden Games), Maneges, Un Homme Marche Dans La Ville, are essentially scenarists' films.

    Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles

    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).

    134 REVIEWS Alasdair Cochrane Sentientist Politics: A Theory of Global Inter-Species Justice New York: Oxford University Press, 2018 ISBN: 978–0-198–78980–2 (HB) £55.00. 162pp Alasdair Cochrane’s Sentientist Politics is an audacious work. Among the vanguard of a relatively small number of philosophers and political theorists spearheading the so-called ‘political turn’ in animal ethics, Cochrane sustains a persuasive, unrepentant, book-length argument for a ‘political system dedicated to the sentience of animals’, a sentientist cosmopolitan democracy. ‘[U]topian in its ambitions’ (p. 13), Sentientist Politics carefully and methodically argues for a number of politically unorthodox positions, including (a) that all sentient beings are moral equals with moral rights; (b) that if (a) is true, then the rights of all sentient beings ought to shape the aims and structures of politics; and (c) that wild animals are owed both negative duties of protection and positive duties of assistance. For the uninitiated, sentience as a term of art in the animal ethics literature refers to those conscious experiences with an attractive or aversive quality, for example, pain and pleasure, suffering, anxiety, fear, etc. Sentience plays a central role in Peter Singer’s pioneering Animal Liberation (1975). Echoing Singer, Cochrane argues in chapter 2 that because they are sentient, nonhu- man animals have interests and intrinsic moral worth; they ‘are concerned with how their own lives are going … they have a stake in their own fates’ (p. 15). Such interests mandate equal consideration, giving ‘equal weight in our moral deliberations to the like interests of all those affected by our actions’ (Singer, 2011: 20).

    Topics in Animal Rights Law Seminar

    TOPICS IN ANIMAL RIGHTS LAW SEMINAR Faculty of Law University of Cambridge Lent Term 2020 Seminar overview Dr Raffael N Fasel, LSE Dr Sean Butler, St Edmund’s College Page 1 of 7 Seminar information Welcome to the Topics in Animal Rights Law Seminar! In this seminar, we discuss advanced topics in Animal Rights Law. The seminar builds on our Animal Rights Law course, usually held in the Michaelmas Term. While attendance of that course is no prerequisite for participating in the Topics in Animal Rights Law Seminar, some prior knowledge on Animal Rights Law will be helpful. The seminar is not a lecture, meaning that its focus lies on discussion, not presentations. All participants are expected to have read the assigned article or book chapter, and to come prepared to discuss it. Each seminar will have a chair who provides some context on the topic and moderates the discussion. The purpose of the seminar is to explore in depth some of the central issues in contemporary animal rights law scholarship. The seminar will be run every other Wednesday from 5-7pm in the Lent Term only. All seminars take place in the Cambridge Law Faculty, 10 West Rd. Please note that the seminar is not examined nor a formal part of the BA or LLM. However, a register will be kept and an attendance certificate is available if required provided by Dr Sean Butler. We will send out a short note before every session, containing the assigned reading and a short description of the topic. We hope you enjoy the seminars, Dr Raffael N Fasel, LSE ([email protected]) Dr Sean
