[] The Upside of Down - Thomas Homer-Dixon

'In The Upside of Down, political scientist and award-winning author Thomas Homer-Dixon argues that converging stresses could cause a catastrophic breakdown of national and global order — a social earthquake that could hurt billions of people. But he shows that this outcome isn't inevitable; there's much we can do to prevent it. And after setting out a general theory of the growth, breakdown, and renewal of societies, he shows that less severe types of breakdown could open up extraordinary opportunities for creative, bold reform of our societies.

Homer-Dixon contends that five "tectonic stresses" are accumulating deep underneath the surface of today's global order:

• energy stress, especially from increasing scarcity of conventional oil;
• economic stress from greater global economic instability and widening income gaps between rich and poor;
• demographic stress from differentials in population growth rates between rich and poor societies and from expansion of megacities in poor societies;
• environmental stress from worsening damage to land, water forests, and fisheries; and,
• climate stress from changes in the composition of Earth's atmosphere.

Of the five, energy stress plays a particularly important role, because energy is humankind's master resource. When energy is scarce and costly, everything a society tries to do — including growing its food, obtaining enough fresh water, transmitting and processing information, and defending itself — becomes far harder.

The effect of the five stresses is multiplied by the rising connectivity and speed of our societies and by the escalating power of small groups to destroy things and people, including, potentially, whole cities.

Drawing parallels between the challenges we face today and the crisis faced by the Roman empire almost two thousand years ago, Homer-Dixon argues that these stresses and multipliers are potentially a lethal mixture. Together, they greatly increase the risk of a cascading collapse of systems vital to our wellbeing — a phenomenon he calls "synchronous failure." Societies must do everything they can to avoid such an outcome.

On the other hand, if people are well-prepared, they may be able to exploit less extreme forms of breakdown to achieve deep reform and renewal of institutions, social relations, technologies, and entrenched habits of behavior. This is likely our best hope for a prosperous and humane future.'

' Excerpts from The Upside of Down

Prologue: Firestorm
San Francisco, Thursday, April 19, 1906

The wind had shifted. Now the inferno turned its attention westward. Block by block, it savaged some of the city's finest houses. As the mayor, chief of police, and members of the municipal council retreated from building to building before the flames, they decided the city would make one last stand.

The final line of defense, they announced, would be Van Ness Avenue — a broad residential boulevard bisecting San Francisco from north to south. The street lay directly in the fire's path: if they could use it as a firebreak, they might be able to halt the advance. But if this last effort failed, what remained of the city would surely be lost.

Early the previous day, an enormous earthquake had shattered the city's core, snapping cast-iron water mains like twigs, toppling thousands of chimneys, and upending coal-burning stoves and boilers. Electrical utility poles fell over, bringing down live wires in showers of sparks. Gas lines ruptured. Kerosene and oil poured out of burst fuel tanks. In seconds, sparks and fuel combined, and dozens of fires exploded across the city. Then, energized by the wood in the city's buildings, small fires coalesced into mighty firestorms. Even when firefighters could maneuver around the piles of earthquake debris in the streets, they found no water in the hydrants.

By noon on the 19th, the fire had destroyed almost ten square kilometers of the city east of Van Ness Avenue. The financial district, Market Street, and the district south of Market were smoking ruins...'

[] The rise of the Arctic: Resource periphery to geopolitical battleground

by Jessica Shadian and IIED" href="http://www.iddri.org/L%27iddri/Intervenants-auteurs/Emma-Wilson" title="">Emma Wilson

Paris 21st of April 2009

Session du Séminaire Développement durable et économie de l'environnement de 17h00 à 19h00. 'On August 2, 2007 Russia’s most famous Arctic explorer, Artur Chilingarov planted a flag below the North Pole. In response media, political pundits, academics and NGOs embarked on a new debate over the future relevance and political role of the Arctic. Front page news stories exclaimed that the North may be heading towards new Cold War fight for power, yet this time around over physical territory and resources rather than ideology. These debates were, however, part of an ongoing and broader international discussion regarding the scientific evidence and reality of global climatic changes taking place in the Arctic. For much of the world climate change is viewed as one of the world’s leading challenges. Yet, for the Arctic melting ice is perceived simultaneously as a global environmental crisis and a newfound wealth of opportunities. Climatic changes are challenging the resilience of the health, livelihoods and physical living conditions of many Arctic communities. Yet, ironically and to an almost unrestrained excitement for some actors these climatic changes are also creating opportunities that extend from the possibility of new international shipping routes and access to hydrocarbon resources to increased tourism and funding for Arctic research. These juxtapositions are coupled by mounting regional and international indigenous political agency. This agency includes in many cases indigenous rights to resources and the growing legitimacy of Arctic indigenous traditional scientific knowledge. These challenges and potential opportunities are neither obvious or without a growing debate over how to sustainably govern and manage the Arctic and are creating a geostrategic shift of the role of the Arctic in global politics' See a video of the conference

[] Catastrophes, risques et sciences sociales

'Séminaire EHESS (GSPM) – CERI-Sciences Po*
Catastrophes, risques et sciences sociales
Sandrine Revet et Julien Langumier

Toutes les séances se dérouleront :
au CERI 56 rue Jacob, 75006 Paris, Salle du conseil (4ème étage) de 10h à 13h
sauf la séance exceptionnelle du 16 juin : 15h-18h

Ce séminaire interdisciplinaire et thématique propose de contribuer à structurer les échanges entre
étudiants et chercheurs de diverses disciplines autour de la question des risques et des catastrophes.
L’entrée thématique sera large (catastrophes « naturelles » ou technologiques, terrains humanitaires,
catastrophes proches, risques environnementaux), mais le séminaire entend se focaliser sur les apports
de travaux empiriques. Il s'agit de s'intéresser au cours de ces situations « à risque » ou de catastrophe
aux interactions entre les populations exposées et des dispositifs de prise en charge et aux dynamiques
de recompositions à l’œuvre. Il s’agit également d’interroger les grandes figures génériques
(sauveur/victime, expert/profane, fatalité /modernité...) et de rendre compte de l’hybridation des
discours, des logiques d’actions et des pratiques qui caractérisent ces situations. Enfin, les terrains de
l’urgence conduisent à des formes de gouvernance inédites dans lesquelles la puissance publique, des
forces militaires et des ONG interviennent au nom des nouveaux paradigmes de la sécurité, de
l’humanitaire et du secours. Quelles ressources politiques et critiques apparaissent alors dans ces
situations d’exception ? Comment les populations et les acteurs de l’urgence s’en emparent-ils ? À
quelle conception de la « sécurité » ces intervention se réfèrent-elles ? Les modèles d'action (outils,
pratiques) et les acteurs qui les mettent en pratique peuvent-ils être mis en regard d'autres domaines de
la « sécurité globale » (biosécurité, lutte contre le terrorisme, prévention des conflits) ?

[] MORI ART MUSEUM

Sensing Nature: Perceiving Nature in Japan
Yoshioka Tokujin, Kuribayashi Takashi, Shinoda Taro

24 July, 2010 - 7 November, 2010
MORI ART MUSEUM

'As the search for an international response to global warming becomes more urgent, "Nature Sense" reexamines the Japanese view of nature. Since the times of literary works such as the Manyoshu and Genji Monogatari around one thousand years ago, nature has always been an important aspect of Japanese culture. It has also been incorporated into the art, craft and architecture of Japan.

How do contemporary Japanese creators conceive of nature, and how do they make use of it in their practices? In this exhibition three creators, Kuribayashi Takashi, Shinoda Taro and Yoshioka Tokujin present large-scale installations designed to reawaken our primal perception of natural phenomena and the natural environment. With mankind's great progress in information technology and urbanization, and in a present in which it is easy to become disconnected with reality, visitors are invited to feel a power greater than our own, and think about new possibilities for the relationship between humans and nature.+

Taro Shinoda – Landscapes & Science = Dreams & Desires

'Taro Shinoda, born in 1964 and residing in Tokyo, is a Japanese conceptual artist. The central theme in his work is “landscapes”, which is not surprising when considering that as a child Shinoda went to a special high school to learn how to create and tend to traditional Japanese gardens. Shinoda himself says that it is actually nature that interests him. He also sees himself very influenced by science.'

tokujin yoshioka

'was born in saga prefecture, japan in 1967. after graduating from kuwasawa design school in tokyo, he studied design under shiro kuramata (1987-1988) and issey miyake (1988-1992) and went free-lance in 1992. he established the tokujin yoshioka design office in 2000. his works include shop design for issey miyake,
space design for nissan, bmw, shiseido. he planned exhibitions for issey miyake, hermes, muji and peugeot. his product design series known as ‘tokyo-pop’, based on his previous ‘honey-pop design, has been introduced by driade. recent works include a
street furniture piece at roppongi hills entitled ‘chair disappears in the rain’.he is the recipient of many international design awards.'

'(in) film por Edgardo Antonio Vigo. Blanco sobre blanco. Homenaje a Kasimir Malevich (1969) Em sintonia com as propostas concretas da época, Vigo destaca-se desde os anos cinquenta por seu amplo labor nos campos da poesia visual e da poesia gráfica; neles, recorreu à instrução como uma ferramenta de trabalho que lhe permitia questionar a autoridade dos pressupostos e conhecimentos compartilhados. Um exemplo é La cuadratura del universo (1990), que lembra os suprematistas Xénia Bogouslavskaïa e Pougny, quando, já em 1915, postulavam: \"2 x 2 dá tudo o que quisermos, exceto quatro\".[1] Ou, recorrendo ao paradoxo como é usual no seu trabalho, no seu projeto (in) film por Edgardo Antonio Vigo. Blanco sobre blanco. Homenaje a Kasimir Malevich (1969), Vigo articulava tanto um assinalamento sobre o valor do branco enquanto espaço de pura possibilidade como também uma proposta tautológica, não sem humor, sobre a condição mesma da imagem e, no caso, do cinema. [1] Trata-se de uma das declarações dos suprematistas no folheto distribuído com o título \"L\'Exposition ‘0-10\' et la Conférence de Malevitch\" durante a exposição Dernière exposition futuriste, 0-10.

GRUPO CASSEFAZ APRESENTA

AMÁLIA EM NOVA IORQUE

'No ano em que se assinalam os 10 anos do desaparecimento de Amália Rodrigues, o Grupo Cassefaz apresenta o espectáculo "Amália em Nova Iorque". A partir da peça escrita por Vicente Alvez do Ó, a actriz Maria José Paschoal,constrói e interpreta um espectáculo que pretende essencialmente partilhar com o público a mulher para além da artista que Amália Rodrigues foi: os seus medos, fracassos, forças e a sua constante ligação com a morte. Ora lisonjeada, ora atacada pelo País que ora a glorificou, ora a abandonou, esta peça é uma instrospecção da sua vida enquanto mulher.
