SUMMARY:Apply no later than March 17: Climate Histories: Science and Art in the Public Space\, 5 credits - New summer course at CEMUS!
DESCRIPTION:Great news for all of you wanting to take a course at CEMUS this summer! The course “Climate Histories: Science and Art in the Public Space” worth 5 credits and runs between August 7-31\, read more and click to apply below. If you have any course specific questions please contact daniel.mossberg@cemus.uu.se\n\n\nSummer 2025\, 100%\, Campus\, Mixed\nApplication at antagning.se »\nStudy period: 7 August 2025 – 31 August 2025 \nApplication Deadline: 17 March 2025 \nApplication code: UU-19510 Application \nLanguage of Instruction: English \nLocation: Uppsala \nSelection: Final school grades (40%) – Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test (10%) – Higher education credits\, maximum 165 credits (50%) \nEntry Requirements: 60 credits \nFees: If you are not a citizen of a European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) country\, or Switzerland\, you are required to pay application and tuition fees. Read more about fees. \nApplication Fee: SEK 900 \nTuition fee\, first semester: SEK 10 833 \nTuition fee\, total: SEK 10 833\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the course\nIn August 2025\, the European Society for Environmental History will host the conference “Climate Histories.” This course is designed to coincide with the conference\, focusing on how we can understand and re-evaluate established interpretations of how societies can adapt and transform in an era of accelerating climate change. \nThe course is divided into two parts: one focusing on an environmental historical understanding of how climate variations have influenced human cultures and societies\, and another with a contemporary focus. Additionally\, as a student\, you will be able to explore how various practical activities that link science\, art\, climate\, and environmental history can create new dialogues in the public sphere. \n  \nAbout the Climate Histories conference\nEnvironmental history is a powerful form of storytelling. \nUnder the ‘Climate Histories’ theme we ask\, how might we rethink the written and material records of social adaptabilities and transformations to understand better what it means to live through an era of rapid climate change? \nThough the climate crises of today are unprecedented\, all societies have negotiated the passing of the seasons and of long and short spells of floods\, droughts and unusual cold periods. As catastrophic events attest to the undeniable effects of climate change\, we are reminded of the historical depth of living with climate variability. The cry of the hunger stones that were exposed due to the central European droughts – If you see me weep – serves as a signal to consider the bad years which have been and will return. \nThis conference then will act as a record in itself\, a 2025 ‘hunger stone’ capable of documenting and reflecting on how climate change is experienced today and in the past.  \nRead more about the conference here: https://eseh2025.com/ \n    \nCEMUS\nThe course is offered at CEMUS\, the Centre for Environment and Development Studies\, in a student-led educational model where students actively contribute to shaping the courses and their content\, creating a student-centred learning environment.   \n    \nSyllabus\nLink to syllabus.

SUMMARY:19 mars: Våldets historia: hur konflikter i Europa och Mellanöstern påverkar och berör oss - live-pod med Patricia Lorenzoni - Framtidsakademin
DESCRIPTION:Varmt välkomna till det andra tillfället av Framtidsakademin vårterminen 2025\, vi fortsätter som podcast inför live-publik på Stadsbiblioteket!\nNär: 19 mars kl. 12.00-12.45 \nVart: Mallas sal\, Stadsbiblioteket Uppsala\, Svartbäcksgatan 17 \nHur: Fri entré. Begränsat antal platser. \n\n19 mars kl. 12.00-12.45\nFoto: Niclas Fasth Patricia Lorenzoni\nAffilierad forskare\, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CEMFOR)\, Uppsala universitet och författare \nVåldets historia: hur konflikter i Europa och Mellanöstern påverkar och berör oss\nPå vilket sätt inverkar våldsamma konflikter långt borta på vår vardag här hemma\, när vi matas med nyheter från krig i Östeuropa och i Mellanöstern? Krigen och våldet berör oss alla\, men det berör inte alla på samma sätt. Olika erfarenheter\, skiljaktigheter i vem vi identifierar oss med\, och förväntningar eller krav på att välja sida kan leda till spänningar och konflikter även här. Under det här samtalet angriper vi de mest grundläggande frågorna kring våldet; hur det yttrar sig\, hur det beskrivs\, samt vilket våld som i olika situationer setts som legitimt och inte. Med idéhistoriens hjälp försöker vi få syn på de outtalade förutsättningar som styr hur militärt och annat våld beskrivs och uppfattas idag.  \nPatricia Lorenzoni är fil. dr. i idéhistoria och affilierad forskare vid CEMFOR. Hon har både som universitetsforskare och lärare ägnat sig åt ämnen så som politisk idéhistoria\, statsbygge\, nationalism\, kolonialism\, rasism\, genus och våld\, liksom åt frågor kring jämlikhet\, inkludering och exkludering. Vid sidan av detta har hon också en mångårig verksamhet också utanför universitetet som författare\, kulturskribent\, filmare och föreläsare. Patricia Lorenzoni angriper temat “Våldets historia” både från ett samtids- och ett idéhistoriskt perspektiv\, samt utifrån sin forskning om kolonialismhistoria och rasismens historia. \nLäs mer: http://www.patricia-lorenzoni.com/ \n\nFramtidsakademin fortsätter under vårterminen som podcast inför live-publik på Stadsbiblioteket. Välkomna att diskutera världens överlevnads- och framtidsfrågor med forskare och samhällsdebattörer!\n\nFramtidsakademin startade 2004 som en tvärvetenskaplig föreläsningsserie med inbjudna forskare med fokus på olika framtidsfrågor inom det breda hållbarhetsområdet. Under våren fortsätter vi med upplägget med podcast-intervjuer som syftar till att väcka kritiska frågor\, skapa debatt och inbjuda till gränsöverskridande samtal där olika perspektiv och människor möts. Vår förhoppning är att på nya sätt belysa bekanta samhällsutmaningar och inspirera i arbetet för en bättre värld!   \nFramtidsakademin är ett samarbete mellan CEMUS\, Folkuniversitetet i Uppsala och Stadsbiblioteket i Uppsala. \nVarmt välkomna att diskutera framtidens frågor med dagens forskare! \nNär: 12 februari\, 19 mars och 9 april kl. 12.00-12.45 \nVart: Mallas sal\, Stadsbiblioteket Uppsala\, Svartbäcksgatan 17 \nHur: Fri entré. Begränsat antal platser\n\n\n\n\n\n9 april kl. 12.00-12.45\nFoto: Tobias Sterner Adam Hjortén\nUniversitetslektor i Nordamerikastudier vid Engelska institutionen\, Svenska institutet för nordamerikastudier (SINAS)\, Uppsala universitet \nAmerikanska framtider: Trumps första 100 dagar och USA bortom polariseringen\nHur vill den nya republikanska majoriteten i Washington forma USA och vad kan de första hundra dagarna av Donald Trumps presidentskap säga om dess påverkan på amerikansk politik och kultur? Genom att utforska den ökande polariseringen i USA och dess kulturella rötter undersöker samtalet hur framtiden för Amerikansk demokrati och samhälle kan komma att utvecklas över de kommande åren. Vi hoppas även kunna diskutera hur ett USA bortom den politiska och sociala splittring som präglat de senaste åren skulle kunna växa fram ur dagens situation. Samtalet fokuserar på hur kulturella och historiska perspektiv kan ge insikt i dagens utmaningar och möjligheterna för ett annat USA efter Trump. \nAdam Hjortén är docent i historia och universitetslektor i Nordamerikastudier vid Svenska Institutet för Nordamerikastudier (SINAS). Han undervisar främst i kurser om USA:s historia\, politik\, kultur och samhälle. Hans forskning fokuserar på amerikanskt kulturellt minne och svensk-amerikanska relationer. För närvarande arbetar hang med forskningsprojekt om etniskt kulturarv\, den Amerikanska konstitutionen och politisk polarisering. Han är nuvarande studierektor för forskarutbildningen vid Engelska institutionen och Uppsala universitets representant i Humtank\, en tankesmedja för forskning och utbildning inom humaniora. \nLäs mer: https://www.uu.se/kontakt-och-organisation/personal?query=N11-2017 \n\nFramtidsakademin är ett samarbete mellan Folkuniversitetet och CEMUS\, vid Uppsala universitet och SLU.
