ENCUENTROS2050 The complex relationship between INTRODUCTION Mexico and the United States has been one of mutual dependence, leading to everything from the bit- terest hostility to entrepreneurial and cultural friendship. However, since our neighbor’s recent presidential elections, the ties between our two nations have been seriously affec- ted and weakened. Trump’s anti-immigrant, anti-Mexican discourse maintains Mexico and the United States in one of their worst diplomatic crises ever. So, taking a new look at the situation this has sparked is important and neces- sary. With the support of the Center for Research on Nor- th America (CISAN), we have developed this fourth issue with three of today’s pivotal crosscutting themes: bilateral relations, so intensely affected in recent months; secondly, 4 the new configurations, above all in trade, that have co- me out of Donald Trump’s election; and thirdly, Donald Trump himself. What are the implications of the Mexi- can government’s having sustained a relatively lukewarm, cautious position? How should our country respond in the face of this new president’s intemperate decisions? One thing is certain: we cannot just sit back and do nothing in the face of a unilateral, xenophobic immigration policy, nor, as some CISAN researchers say here, can we ignore our country’s own internal failings, the main causes of illegal migration to the United States.

In addi- tion, inequality is deepening in both countries, which rank second and third, respectively in the OECD countries on the Gini coefficient scale.1 All these factors should not have been ignored, and in the future should not continue to be ignored, if we renew the idea of building a shared future. All the actions taken in renegotiating NAFTA must be oriented to the well-being of the pub- lic, the pillar of Mexico and the United States’ democracies, and not only to very particular ac- tors like businesspersons, corporations, inves- tors, and government actors, which have con- centrated both benefits and decision-making. If we are to move ahead toward a new era of NAFTA, it will be critical for both countries to develop a creative, intelligent strategy to com- municate to their citizens the benefits in re- structuring this regulatory framework.

  • Primates Don't Make Good Pets! Says Lincoln Park
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EDITOR’S NOTE: Photos of an appropriate multi-male, multi-female group of chimpanzees at Lincoln Park Zoo can be found HERE. Pet trade images are not shared as Lincoln Park Zoo research shows when these images of chimpanzees in human settings are circulated, chimpanzees are not believed to be endangered. Primates Don’t Make Good Pets! Says Lincoln Park Zoo Series of manuscripts from the Lester E. Fisher Center for the Study and Conservation of Apes bring light to the detrimental effects of atypically-housed chimpanzees Chicago (December 13, 2017) – The Wolf of Wall Street movie. Weezer’s “Island in the Sun” music video. Michael Jackson’s “pet” Bubbles. While these may seem like unrelated pop culture references, they all have a similarly daunting theme: the use of chimpanzees in the pet or entertainment trade. These chimpanzees typically are raised by humans and rarely see others of their own species until they are fortunate enough to be moved to an accredited zoo or sanctuary. For years, Lincoln Park Zoo researchers have documented the long-term effects of this unusual human exposure on chimpanzees. Now, a third and final study in a series has been published in Royal Society Open Science Dec. 13 showcasing the high stress levels experienced by these chimpanzees who have been raised in human homes and trained to perform for amusement. Over the course of the three years, Fisher Center researchers evaluated more than 60 chimpanzees – all now living in accredited zoos and sanctuaries - and examined the degree to which they were exposed to humans and to their own species over their lifetime to determine the long-term effects of such exposure.

These may look like part of the usual rumors about Jackson frequently appearing in the media, however, they are not. Instead, these headlines are the opening scene of the music video for Jackson’s song ‘Leave Me Alone’, released on January 2, 1989, and directed by Jim Blashfield. Jackson opens by singing the words: I don't care what you talkin' 'bout baby I don't care what you say Don't you come walkin' beggin' back mama I don't care anyway ‘Leave Me Alone’ is a response to the rumors that began to circulate in the media after the worldwide success of Jackson’s 1982 album Thriller.

  • 98.6: a Creative Commonality
    CONTENT 1 - 2 exibition statement 3 - 18 about the chimpanzees and orangutans 19 resources 20 educational activity 21-22 behind the scenes 23 installation images 24 walkthrough video / flickr page 25-27 works in show 28 thank you EXHIBITION STATEMENT Humans and chimpanzees share 98.6% of the same DNA. Both species have forward-facing eyes, opposing thumbs that accompany grasping fingers, and the ability to walk upright. Far greater than just the physical similarities, both species have large brains capable of exhibiting great intelligence as well as an incredible emotional range. Chimpanzees form tight social bonds, especially between mothers and children, create tools to assist with eating and express joy by hugging and kissing one another. Over 1,000,000 chimpanzees roamed the tropical rain forests of Africa just a century ago. Now listed as endangered, less than 300,000 exist in the wild because of poaching, the illegal pet trade and habitat loss due to human encroachment. Often, chimpanzees are killed, leaving orphans that are traded and sold around the world. Thanks to accredited zoos and sanctuaries across the globe, strong conservation efforts and programs exist to protect and manage populations of many species of the animal kingdom, including the great apes - the chimpanzee, gorilla, orangutan and bonobo. In the United States, institutions such as the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the Species Survival Plan (SSP) work together across the nation in a cooperative effort to promote population growth and ensure the utmost care and conditions for all species. Included in the daily programs for many species is what’s commonly known as “enrichment”–– an activity created and employed to stimulate and pose a challenge, such as hiding food and treats throughout an enclosure that requires a search for food, sometimes with a problem-solving component.

Gordon Emslie Dean of the Graduate College ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my appreciation to several people for their support, friendship, guidance, and instruction while I have been working toward my PhD. From the English department faculty, I would like to thank Dr. Robert Mayer, whose “Theories of the Novel” seminar has proven instrumental to both the development of The Getaway Girl and the accompanying critical introduction. Dr. Elizabeth Grubgeld wisely recommended I include Elizabeth Bowen’s The House in Paris as part of my modernism reading list. Without my knowledge of that novel, I am not sure how I would have approached The Getaway Girl’s major structural revisions. I have also appreciated the efforts of Dr. William Decker and Dr. Merrall Price, both of whom, in their role as Graduate Program Director, have generously acted as my advocate on multiple occasions. In addition, I appreciate Jon Billman’s willingness to take the daunting role of adviser for an out-of-state student he had never met. Thank you to all the members of my committee—Prof.
