  • The Boisi Center Report the Boisi Center for Religion and American Public Life at Boston College
    The Boisi Center Report the boisi center for religion and american public life at boston college vol. 10 v no. 2 v june 2010 From the Director When we began our work at the Boisi Center ten years ago, we had high hopes that the Prophetic Voices Lecture would become our signature event each year. The idea was to invite a prominent person who has demonstrated usual moral courage, and who has thought publically about his or her faith in ways that inspire action in the world. Many distinguished individuals have joined us for this purpose, including Sr. Helen Prejean, Fuller Seminary’s Richard Mouw, and Muslim scholar Abdullahi An-Na’im. This year, though, may have been the best we have hosted. Committed to intellectual diversity, I wanted a conservative thinker for the lecture and immediately thought of Professor Robert George, of Princeton University. No sooner did he accept our invitation than the New York Times Magazine ran a major profile of him. Professor George’s talk on natural law and human dignity was deeply nuanced and fascinating. Rarely have I seen so many pay attention for so long. I am enormously grateful to Robby George for joining us, and for saying such gracious things about us afterwards on the Mirror of Justice blog. This semester the Boisi Center also hosted a lecture by our benefactor and friend Geoff Boisi, who enthralled a large audience with his candid and extremely interesting talk on the Wall Street financial crisis. It was terrific to have this visit from Geoff, his wife Rene, and their son John, a student at BC.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 Claremont McKenna College Why Hollywood Isn’t As Liberal As We Think And Why It Matters Submitted to Professor Jon Shields by Amanda Daily for Senior Thesis Fall 2018 and Spring 2019 April 29, 2019 2 3 Abstract Hollywood has long had a reputation as a liberal institution. Especially in 2019, it is viewed as a highly polarized sector of society sometimes hostile to those on the right side of the aisle. But just because the majority of those who work in Hollywood are liberal, that doesn’t necessarily mean our entertainment follows suit. I argue in my thesis that entertainment in Hollywood is far less partisan than people think it is and moreover, that our entertainment represents plenty of conservative themes and ideas. In doing so, I look at a combination of markets and artistic demands that restrain the politics of those in the entertainment industry and even create space for more conservative productions. Although normally art and markets are thought to be in tension with one another, in this case, they conspire to make our entertainment less one-sided politically.

Institute Expands Internship Opportunities Welcome to the Institute of Politics at Harvard University Jeanne Shaheen, Director After joining the Institute of Politics in July, I want you all to know how very appreciative I am to have this opportunity to serve as IOP Director. I am pleased to announce that the Institute will be receiving new University endowment funds this year. The funds will be used to expand our internship program, to create an initiative for development of leadership skills among undergraduate women, and to offer a scholarship to a SAC alumnus to attend the John F. Kennedy School of Government. This fall, Harvard students and IOP staff continued their work to foster politi- cal engagement on campus and in our community—below are highlights of some of our exciting programs: • After nearly thirty years of fantastic speeches and panels held in the John F. Kennedy Jr. Forum, in early January we will launch a search- able video archive of Forum programs dating from 1978 which will be available on the IOP website. • At the end of November, we welcomed nearly 20 big city mayors from across the country for our Newly-Elected Mayors Program. The conference, co-hosted by the U.S. Conference of Mayors, helps new mayors take on the practical challenges of urban governance. • Our National Campaign hosted its fall conference, “Beyond Voting: College Students and Political Engagement,” focused on non-voting political engagement.

  • IT IS the RESPONSIBILITY of Intellectuals to Speak the Truth and to Expose Lies
    IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY of intellectuals to speak the truth and to expose lies. This, at least, may seem enough of a truism to pass over without comment. (Noam Chomsky, 1967)[1] You can see through/Your rose colored glasses / In a world that seems/ Like glamour to you / You’ve got opinions and judgments about / All kind of things / That you don’t know anything about (from Ivory Tower, by Van Morrison) Intellectuals Who Quest Beyond the Ivory Tower by Saleem H. Ali and Robert F. Barsky The Objective The popularization of academic discourse in recent years has caused much debate about how to disseminate knowledge to the public without sacrificing a dedicated emphasis on research. Tenure systems within universities and academic associations have generally disparaged the involvement of academics in fictional writing, activist media ventures, popular journalism or corporate assignments. Nevertheless, there are still many notable scholars who have either chosen or allowed themselves to become popularizers. This volume is an attempt to relate and analyze the challenges which popular work presents to the academy and to try and tease out the intellectual costs and benefits, both tangible and intangible, of being a “public intellectual.” This raises important questions of social responsibility and professional ethics, which can cloud judgment on either side of the divide. At another level, the debate on popular academics reflects the essential tension between analysis and synthesis which has been phrased in many ways -- intensive versus extensive; reductionist versus holistic; and most recently as disciplinary versus interdisciplinary. Our aim is to approach this relatively intractable topic at various levels.

  • Hertog 2021 Summer Courses Free Speech in a Fractured Republic
    HERTOG 2021 SUMMER COURSES FREE SPEECH IN A FRACTURED REPUBLIC Martha Bayles, Professor, Boston College Free speech in America is at a troubling impasse. At one extreme, the champions of free speech embrace the ultra-libertarian view that every limit on expression, no matter how benign, is a fatal step toward tyranny. At the other, the custodians of public virtue deploy star-chamber methods to enforce an ideology, congealed from political correctness, that grows ever more invasive, intolerant, and inhuman. Fellows will explore the challenge of preserving the Western ideal of free speech in a world where democratic governments seem paralyzed by political and cultural polarization; powerful tech companies have become unwilling content regulators; and authoritarian regimes deploy digital technology for surveillance, censorship, and propaganda. This seminar will meet online weekly on Tuesdays from 4 PM to 6 PM ET on the following dates: June 15, 22, 29, July 6, & 13. Course Materials • Course Reader Discussion Papers: Each fellow will be responsible for completing a brief discussion paper (1-2 pages, single spaced). See below for your assigned session. Discussion questions will be provided by the instructor the week prior to each session. Papers are due the day before your assigned session by 5 PM ET. They should be posted on the course Slack channel and will be part of the assigned readings for the session. Paper-writers should be ready to briefly present their ideas during the seminar. Films: There are three films assigned in addition to our readings. Two of the films are available to view for no charge, while one (The Cleaners) can be rented.

    U.S. INTERNATIONAL BROADCASTING: AN UNTAPPED RESOURCE FOR DOMESTIC AND ETHNIC NEWS ORGANIZATIONS Shawn Powers Assistant Professor Georgia State University One Park Place South, Suite 662 Department of Communication Atlanta, GA 30303 e: [email protected], p: 847.722.3346 The news media landscape is rapidly changing in the wake of technological progress and the altered ways in which information is received and disseminated require adjustments in the contemporary media regulatory framework. Just as advances in science and health sectors require governments to adjust their laws accordingly, so do advances in information technology. The advent of the Internet, a global infrastructure able to disseminate information instantaneously from anyone to anywhere in the world, calls into question the value of laws written in the first half of the 20th century with the intent to limit the direction of news and information broadcast by particular organizations. Currently, U.S. public service broadcasting, which is severely underfunded in comparison to the rest of the world, is also legally separate from U.S. international broadcasting, a technical firewall that inhibits effective collaboration between the two entities. As a result, U.S. funded international broadcasting is prohibited from disseminating its journalistic features within the U.S., a legal ban that hinders the use of its significant journalistic resources by both public and private news networks, including a large sector of ethnic media that could surely benefit from the 60 languages that American international broadcasters report in. This chapter argues for further collaboration between government funded international broadcasting and its domestic counterparts—both public and private—and for an adjustment in policies in order to accurately and intelligently adapt to the reality of today’s information ecology.
