SUMMARY:Cultural Heritage and Community: Protecting the Past for the Future in the Moche Valley\, Peru. Alicia Boswell\, History of Art and Architecture\, UCSB
DESCRIPTION:Media reports on cultural heritage issues focus primarily on the destruction of ancient monuments and the illicit looting and sale of antiquities\, especially at the hands of groups such as ISIS. In doing so\, they largely ignore the likelihood that antiquities extraction and site destruction is more related to issues of global economic development. This talk addresses the global and national socioeconomic pressures connected to heritage destruction in Peru and highlights a model implemented to combat archaeological site destruction in the Moche Valley\, Peru by Moche Inc\, a nonprofit organization that Boswell collaborates with. This model\, which engages local communities in heritage preservation and development projects demonstrates that the benefits of conserving archaeological sites can extend beyond site preservation and tourism opportunities. Community collaboration and protection of archaeological sites can contribute to economic opportunities and long-term community development.

SUMMARY:Dean's Lecture Series: Arturo Escobar (Major Lecture & Reception)
DESCRIPTION:Healing the Web of Life:Autonomous Transition Design as Political-Ontological Praxis \nArturo Escobar:\nPractitioner-in-Residence\, UC Santa Barbara\nKenan Distinguished Professor of\nAnthropology Emeritus\, UNC \nThursday\, March 7\, 2019 3:30 5:00 PM ;\n6020 HSSB\, McCune Conference Room\nRECEPTION TO FOLLOW 5:00-6:30 PM \nIn the face of deepening social and ecological crises\, design is emerging as a vital domain of praxis that engages these crises by imagining and organizing alternative life worlds. This confers upon design/ing an ineluctable ontological-political dimension. This lecture outlines the constructive reorientation of design as a praxis meant to heal the web of life\, and describes the early stages of application of what we are calling “autonomous transition design” in the Cauca River Valley in Southwest Colombia.
