Dear Colleagues and Students,

The Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences (IAS) cordially invite you to participate in IAS Guest Lecture: “Re-Thinking Global Political Theory”, scheduled for 16 January 2025 (Thu). Please find the details below:

• Title: “Re-Thinking Global Political Theory”
• Speaker: Prof. Michael Puett (Director of the Asia Center, Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology, Harvard University)
• Moderator: Prof. Xingzhong Yu (Director of IAS, Chair Professor of Global Legal Studies, University of Macau)
• Date: 16 January 2025 (Thu)
• Time: 15:30 – 17:00 PM
• Language: English
• Venue: Lecture Hall, Cultural Building (E34 – G011)
• Registration: Click Here

Biography of Speaker:

Michael Puett is the Walter C. Klein Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology and the Director of the Asia Center at Harvard University. His interests are focused on the inter-relations between religion, philosophy, anthropology, and history, with the hope of bringing the study of China into larger historical, comparative, and theoretical frameworks. Michael is the recipient of a Harvard College Professorship for excellence in undergraduate teaching, the Joseph R. Levenson Memorial Teaching Prize, the Star Family Prize for Excellence in Advising, and the Everett Mendelsohn Excellence in Mentoring Award. Since 2012 his course on classical Chinese ethical and political theory has been one of the highest enrolled undergraduate courses at Harvard.

Abstract:

We seem to have a relatively clear (if somewhat uncomfortable) narrative concerning the rise and (potential) decline of neoliberalism. But, if we take into account the perspective of China, such a narrative may have to be re-thought. This talk will place some of the current political debates in China within a larger historical context and argue that these debates may force us to re-think some of our assumptions concerning the workings of the state and the economy and accordingly to re-think some of our readings of recent history. My hope is that the talk will help to contribute to developing a more global understanding of political theory.

On the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Macau, we would like to express our gratitude for your unwavering support to us. Your involvement and support have helped build a strong foundation for our interdisciplinary research platform and inspired us to keep moving forward. The IAS is excited to carry on our mission, rooted in Macau, by organizing high-quality academic activities that showcase the diversity of academic collaboration.

We look forward to seeing you at this event! For more information about IAS, please visit the website at https://ias.um.edu.mo/. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at ias.programme@um.edu.mo.

Best regards,
The Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences

Dear Colleagues and Students,

The Institute of Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences (IAS) cordially invites you to participate in the Distinguished Guest Lecture Series scheduled on 20 September 2024 (Fri). We are honored to have Professor John Braithwaite from the Australian National University, explore the topic of “New and Old Macrocriminologies”. We are also delighted to have Professor Liu Jianhong, Distinguished Professor of Faculty of Law, University of Macau, as moderator and discussant, Please find the details below:

• Title: New and Old Macrocriminologies
• Date: 20 September 2024 (Fri)
• Time: 10:30-12:30 AM
• Language: English
• Venue: Lecture Hall, Cultural Building (E34 – G011)
• Registration: Click here

Abstract:

Much can be recovered for a social structural criminology that is better balanced between macro and individualist criminology. Early Marxist criminologists, Durkheim, Robert K Merton, can still be drawn upon. Institutional anomie theory and the theory of collective efficacy in the 1990s laid important new foundations for a macrocriminology that can imagine a society that simultaneously enjoys more freedom and less crime. Sun Yat Sen’s Chinese republicanism is helpful to that ambition. John Braithwaite attempts to take a new step toward a society with less crime and more freedom in his 2022 open access book, Macrocriminology and Freedom.

Tea with Professor:

After the lecture, we will organize an afternoon tea, providing the chance to communicate with Professor John Braithwaite in face. However, due to venue and food constraints, we can only accommodate 20 participants, it’s on a first-come, first-served basis.
