SUMMARY:Geography Research Seminar on Culture and Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Geography Research Seminar on Culture and Sustainability  \nProfessor Janet Stephenson\, Otago University\, New Zealand  \n2pm Wednesday July 12th\, AC113 Geography Seminar room   \n  \nHow does culture relate to sustainability? Janet Stephenson draws from her new book Culture and Sustainability to show how cultural analysis can help with sustainability endeavours in research and policy.  She introduces the cultures framework\, a well-tested approach for analysing culture at any scale and in any context.  Using examples of its diverse applications around the world\, Stephenson illustrates how culture can in some circumstances be highly resistant to change\, and in other circumstances can change rapidly. Cultural analysis can assist with policy development and reveal why some policy interventions have unintended consequences. Understanding sustainability problems through a cultural lens can bring new insights into the potential for transformational change. \nBio \nJanet Stephenson is a research professor at the Centre for Sustainability\, an interdisciplinary research centre at the University of Otago\, New Zealand.  A social scientist\, she is interested in the challenges of transitioning to a sustainable future and the influence of culture in seemingly intractable problems.  Much of her research in recent years has focused on energy and transport issues as well as the challenges of climate change adaptation for place-based communities.  Her recent book Culture and Sustainability draws on one-and-a-half decades of research to offer theoretical and analytical insights into the role of culture in sustainability transitions.

SUMMARY:Irish Performance and Social Change: Politics and Aesthetics
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ciara Murphy and Dr. Emer O’Toole have both recently published books on the relationship between Irish theatre and social change. Dr. Murphy’s book encapsulates The Troubles\, the Peace Process\, Second-Wave Feminism\, the Celtic Tiger\, social revolution\, and the COVID-19 pandemic. It uses lenses of place\, performance form\, and social context to complicate narratives of nationhood. Dr. O’Toole’s study ranges from the decriminalisation of homosexuality in 1993 to the repeal of the 8th amendment in 2018. It has an aesthetic focus\, asking what happens to beauty\, meaning\, and affect when artists’ aims are activist. \nThis event will begin as a conversation between the authors\, then open up to a broader discussion with attendees. All welcome. If you’d like to read some of the texts beforehand but don’t have access\, please get in touch with Dr. O’Toole at emer.otoole@concordia.ca. \nDr Emer O’Toole\, Associate Professor\, School of Irish Studies\, Concordia University\, Montreal. \nDr Ciara Murphy\, Assistant Lecturer\, Department of Creative Arts\, Media\, and Music\, Dundalk Institute of Technology\, Dundalk.
