  • Noel Lateef: in This the Foreign Policy Association's Centennial Year We're Very Fortunate to Have with Us This Evening a Distinguished Leader of Higher Education
    Noel Lateef: In this the Foreign Policy Association's centennial year we're very fortunate to have with us this evening a distinguished leader of higher education. President Leon Botstein will speak to the important topic of elites, higher education and the future. You may have seen in the current issue of the New Yorker a review of a book published by the Foreign Policy Association 50 years ago. A 1968 book tried to predict the world of 2018. The book successfully predicted pocket computers and the jacket cover asked the question, "Will our children in 2018 still be wrestling with racial problems, economic depressions and other Vietnams?" I am pleased that president Botstein's remarks this evening will be included in a new book that we are publishing this year, that will predict the world of 2068. I should note that president Botstein chaired a blue ribbon commission that looked into the relevance of the mission of the Foreign Policy Association 25 years ago. It was underwritten by the Ford foundation, and as I recall the leadership of the FP at the time waited with some trepidation for the conclusion of this important report. We are grateful to president Botstein for concluding that our mission was never more important. Ladies and gentlemen, to formally introduce president Botstein I'm going to turn to an FPA fellow of long standing, who happens to be the dean of international studies at Bard college, and director of the Bard globalization and international studies program, Jim Ketterer. Jim? Jim Ketterer: Good evening. It's a pleasure to see so many Bard alumni, faculty and students here this evening, who come not only from our campus in Annandale, but as Noel mentioned, the Bard globalization international affairs program here in New York city that draws in students, not only from the Bard institutions, but from colleges and universities across the country, and in fact across the world, and many of them are here.

Notes ON THE MUSIC – TON’S KADEN HENDERSON ON ARTHUR HONEGGER’S RUGBY MATT DINE MATT Full Contact Music Honegger’s second tone poem, entitled Rugby, which we will be hearing today, was composed in 1928. Although it bears the name Rugby, the composer himself insisted that this work was not programmatic in a traditional sense. Despite what Honegger may have said, it takes little imagination to find oneself in the middle of the pitch dodging tack- les left and right from the very first note. Immediately from the downbeat it is apparent that Honegger is not alluding to two-hand-touch rugby, but rather the sport in its full contact, “hold no pris- oners” variety. The very first notes from The Composer the strings hit the audience like a ton of When thinking about the great orches- bricks as the cascading strings sweep us tral tone poems in our repertoire, the into a musical dogpile.

  • Ed Carpenter, Artist [email protected] Commissions
    ED CARPENT ER 1 Ed Carpenter, Artist [email protected] Revision 2/1/21 Born: Los Angeles, California. 1946 Education: University of California, Santa Barbara 1965-6, Berkeley 1968-71 Ed Carpenter is an artist specializing in large-scale public installations ranging from architectural sculpture to infrastructure design. Since 1973 he has completed scores of projects for public, corporate, and ecclesiastical clients. Working internationally from his studio in Portland, Oregon, USA, Carpenter collaborates with a variety of expert consultants, sub-contractors, and studio assistants. He personally oversees every step of each commission, and installs them himself with a crew of long-time helpers, except in the case of the largest objects, such as bridges. While an interest in light has been fundamental to virtually all of Carpenter’s work, he also embraces commissions that require new approaches and skills. This openness has led to increasing variety in his commissions and a wide range of sites and materials. Recent projects include interior and exterior sculptures, bridges, towers, and gateways. His use of glass in new configurations, programmed artificial lighting, and unusual tension structures have broken new ground in architectural art. He is known as an eager and open-minded collaborator as well as technical innovator. Carpenter is grandson of a painter/sculptor, and step-son of an architect, in whose office he worked summers as a teenager. He studied architectural glass art under artists in England and Germany during the early 1970’s. Information on his projects and a video about his methods can be found at: http://www.edcarpenter.net/ Commissions Bridge And Exterior Public Commissions 2019: Barbara Walker Pedestrian Bridge, Wildwood Trail, Portland, OR, 180’ x 12’ x 8’.

The lessons of Kimani Ng’ang’a Maruge, an aging illiterate Kenyan and Mau Mau veteran, are undeniably powerful and his message is clear, ”We have to learn from our past because we must not forget and because we must get better… the power is in the pen.” The other event of the summer that has helped to re-vitalize and focus thinking globally about education is a remarkably fine series of interviews, The Global Search for Education, by C.M. Rubin for Educational News. The interviews with individuals renowned for their international leadership (including some of the Brock Prize nominees and laureates) are being conducted according to Rubin, “with the intention of raising the awareness of policy makers, the media, and the public of the global facts.” The film and the interviews have helped crystallize my thinking about the individual I had nominated in the spring; they have served to re-affirm my choice of Leon Botstein as the next Brock International Laureate.

  • Rewriting Universes: Post-Brexit Futures in Dave Hutchinson’S Fractured Europe Quartet
    humanities Article Rewriting Universes: Post-Brexit Futures in Dave Hutchinson’s Fractured Europe Quartet Hadas Elber-Aviram Department of English, The University of Notre Dame (USA) in England, London SW1Y 4HG, UK; [email protected] Abstract: Recent years have witnessed the emergence of a new strand of British fiction that grapples with the causes and consequences of the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union. Building on Kristian Shaw’s pioneering work in this new literary field, this article shifts the focus from literary fiction to science fiction. It analyzes Dave Hutchinson’s Fractured Europe quartet— comprised of Europe in Autumn (pub. 2014), Europe at Midnight (pub. 2015), Europe in Winter (pub. 2016) and Europe at Dawn (pub. 2018)—as a case study in British science fiction’s response to the recent nationalistic turn in the UK. This article draws on a bespoke interview with Hutchinson and frames its discussion within a range of theories and studies, especially the European hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer. It argues that the Fractured Europe quartet deploys science fiction topoi to interrogate and criticize the recent rise of English nationalism. It further contends that the Fractured Europe books respond to this nationalistic turn by setting forth an estranged vision of Europe and offering alternative modalities of European identity through the mediation of photography and the redemptive possibilities of cooking. Keywords: speculative fiction; science fiction; utopia; post-utopia; dystopia; Brexit; England; Europe; Dave Hutchinson; Fractured Europe quartet Citation: Elber-Aviram, Hadas. 2021.

Backhaus Professor of Public Finances University Maastricht - AE P.O. Box 616 6200 MD Maastricht The Netherlands tel: +31-43-3883636 fax: +31-43-3884878 e-mail: [email protected] Prepared for the Business Library Review. Abstract The recent Bertelsmann buy-out of Springer ends 157 years of fiercely independent scholarly publishing. On Tuesday February 16, 1999, the European Commission decided that, although both companies are active in professional publishing, the takeover does not raise any competitive objections because they have different focuses in that (professional) market. "The market share increase through the merger is limited", the Commission said. "Consequently, the concentration has been declared compatible with the common market."1 This review article recalls the formidable history of this science publisher and its role in helping establish entire fields of science and technology. In particular, the role of this independent privately- held publishing company in confronting attempts infringing upon academic freedom is being emphasized. JEL codes: I28, L41, N44 keyword: science publishing 1 Wall Street Journal Europe, Wednesday, February 17, 1999, p. 5 On February 16, 1999, the European Commission allowed Bertelsmann's taking over the science publisher Springer-Verlag. Thus, a 157-year old privately-held company ceased to exist as an independent entity, a force that had shaped the landscape of scholarly publishing. Bertelsmann AG is the world's largest book publisher, and it is among the world's largest media companies.
