This seminar will help strengthen the economic literacy of working journalists and better equip them to produce knowledgeable and accurate work about global economic issues in a fast-changing world. Journalists will learn about the different elements of globalization — including labor issues, free trade, resource wealth and bailouts — from the experts. Academics, World Bank officials, NGO and corporate representatives will offer practical training sessions. Journalists, experienced in covering these issues, will help facilitate the discussions. The participants also will be introduced to a web-based resource that offers information on key issues of globalization. The agenda features a number of prominent Columbia faculty members, including Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz and Earth Institute Director Jeffrey Sachs. The agenda, presented below, represents a working draft of the program. While some of the lecturers may change, the content substance is firm.

    The Bohemian Horizon: 21st-Century Little Magazines and the Limits of the Countercultural Artist-Activist Travis Mushett Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 ©2016 Travis Mushett All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Bohemian Horizon: 21st-Century Little Magazines and the Limits of the Countercultural Artist-Activist Travis Mushett This dissertation examines the emergence of a cohort of independent literary, intellectual, and political publications—“little magazines”—in New York City over the past decade. Helmed by web-savvy young editors, these publications have cultivated formidable reputations by grasping and capitalizing on a constellation of economic, political, and technological developments. The little magazines understand themselves as a radical alternative both to a journalistic trend toward facile, easily digestible content and to the perceived insularity and exclusivity of academic discourse. However, the bohemian tradition in which they operate predisposes them toward an insularity of their own. Their particular web of allusions, codes, and prerequisite knowledge can render them esoteric beyond the borders of a specific subculture and, in so doing, curtail their political potency and reproduce systems of privilege. This dissertation explores the tensions and limitations of the bohemian artist-activist ideal, and locates instances in which little magazines were able to successfully
