- Nov 2112:30 PMLecture—"Towards Universal Human Dignity: Challenging the Undeclared War"This event welcomes back Kroc Institute alumna Rosette Muzigo-Morrison (M.A. '93), legal officer at the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, located at the Hague, Netherlands. Muzigo-Morrison will highlight several notable world events that coincided with her arrival at Notre Dame in the early 1990s— the collapse of the Berlin Wall to the release of Nelson Mandela and an end to apartheid in South Africa to the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia. Despite these developments, a united resolve to work for human dignity has been stifled. Muzigo-Morrison will also address the concerns surrounding forgotten wars in Cameron, South Sudan and Sudan, Ethiopia and Syria, the rise of white supremacist governments in Europe, and implications for the future. Anne E. Hayner, associate director for alumni relations, will provide an introduction. Originally published at kroc.nd.edu.
- Nov 215:00 PMLecture: "The Activism of Imagination: Fictions of Europe Between Utopia and Disenchantment"The Center for Italian Studies is pleased to host a lecture by Professor Nicoletta Pireddu (Georgetown University) titled: The Activism of Imagination: Fictions of Europe Between Utopia and Disenchantment Against the backdrop of political, economic, and social problems that reinforce the idea of Europe’s existential crisis, this talk redraws the attention to constructive aspects of the Europe-building discourse often muffled by a rising Euroscepticism. In particular, it explores the contribution of literature both as the repository of a European cultural memory and as a forerunner of crucial components of the ongoing European integration design. A selection of modern and contemporary Italian fiction, in dialogue with a broader literary and intellectual discourse at pivotal junctures of the European project, addresses the role of utopia not as a compensatory wishful projection but, rather, as creative thinking propelled by the critical and transformative power of imagination. Nicoletta Pireddu is inaugural director of the Georgetown Humanities Initiative and professor of Italian and Comparative Literature at Georgetown University. Her research revolves around European literary and cultural relations, cosmopolitanism, borders and migration, history of ideas, and translation studies. She has published over eighty articles and numerous monographs and edited volumes, among them Antropologi alla corte della bellezza. Decadenza ed economia simbolica nell’Europa fin de siècle, which received the American Association for Italian Studies Book Award; The Works of Claudio Magris: Temporary Homes, Mobile Identities, European Borders, and most recently, Migrating Minds: Theories and Practices of Cultural Cosmopolitanism (2023 American Comparative Literature Association “René Wellek Prize for the Best Edited Essay Collection”). The lecture is co-sponsored by the Nanovic Institute.The Italian Research Seminar, a core event of the Center for Italian Studies, aims to provide a regular forum for faculty, postdoctoral scholars, graduate students, and colleagues from other universities to present and discuss their current research. The Seminar is vigorously interdisciplinary, and embraces all areas of Italian literature, language, and culture, as well as perceptions of Italy, its achievements and its peoples in other national and international cultures. The Seminar constitutes an important element in the effort by Notre Dame's Center for Italian Studies to promote the study of Italy and to serve as a strategic point of contact for scholarly exchange.Originally published at italianstudies.nd.edu.
- Nov 2612:30 PMLecture "World Politics Series: Is the Justice Cascade Over?"Despite Sikkink's previous claims that we have entered an age of accountability with a “justice cascade” of human rights prosecutions, her most recent data show that there has been a marked decline in domestic, foreign, and international prosecutions worldwide after peaking in 2010. In the talk, she will discuss how changes in both the conditions for the demand and the supply of accountability have contributed to this new trend of declining prosecutions, especially because of the retrocession of liberal democracies. This lecture is part of a larger series organized by Faculty Fellows Scott Mainwaring and Karrie Koesel entitled “Perspectives on World Politics.” Since its inception in 2016, this series aims to spotlight the Kellogg Institute’s strength in comparative politics by featuring distinguished scholars who speak on a topic related to each year’s theme.

- Dec 312:30 PMKellogg Lecture: "What Happens after Democratic Erosion? A Framework of Post-Erosion Trajectories and Democratic Recovery"Democratic erosion can be stopped. There are good theoretical reasons and first empirical evidence for that. However, stopping democratic erosion is not equivalent to democratic recovery. What possible trajectories are there for the post-erosion phase? How can democratic recovery—as one of them—be captured? These questions have not been found sufficient attention but are highly relevant for developing strategies of post-erosion democratic reconstruction. This lecture presents a framework covering these questions and thus offering an approach for addressing post-erosion developments.Kellogg Lecture by Marianne Kneuer. More information here

- Dec 34:30 PMLecture—"The Allocentric Image: Photogrammetry, Japan, and a New History of Spatial Photography"Click image to download poster [PDF, 3MB]Refreshments are available following the event. Free and open to all. Paul Roquet studies the use of media as personal technologies of perceptual and emotional self- regulation as an associate professor of media studies and Japan studies at MIT. Photogrammetry creates 3D representations by triangulating 2D images, building on a century of struggles to add spatial depth to photographs. Photogrammetry’s focus on surveying excluded it from media histories despite its entwinement with camera technologies. Tracing its trajectory in Japan reveals a contemporary culture focused less on images and more onthe spaces—and temporalities—that lie between them. Organized by Liu Faculty Fellow Amanda Kennell, assistant professor of East Asian Languages and Cultures, sponsored by the Institute for the Scholarship in the Liberal Arts and the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures, College of Arts and Letters, University of Notre Dame.
